Product Description |
| Build strength, tone your muscles, and improve your overall fitness level with the Bodylastics Terrell Owens Super Strong Man resistance bands system. Setting the standard in the home gym category, the Super Strong Man system includes everything you need to work your arms, legs, back, chest, shoulders, and abs. The system is built around seven continuous-dipped elastic bands that create more than 94 resistance levels and up to 127 pounds of resistance per side. This versatility means that both grandparents and NFL offensive lineman alike will be able to enjoy a terrific home workout. The bands start at 5 pounds (yellow), with the resistance levels moving progressively upward to 7 pounds (green), 13 pounds (red), 19 pounds (blue), 23 pounds (black), and 30 pounds (two orange). The set also comes with such accessories as four extra-wide foam-covered handles, four heavy-duty ankle straps, and a door anchor that attaches to almost any kind of door. With the door anchor, users can perform more than 140 top gym exercises, or they can perform dozens of others while using the bands freestanding. How effective is the Super Strong Man set? Back before the 2007 football season, Bodylastics sent a few prototypes to NFL receiver Terrell Owens. When he arrived at training camp, he showed them to the Dallas Cowboys' strength and conditioning coach. Not only did the coach order 10 sets on the spot, but he later ended up ordering enough sets for every player on the team. Ideal for all ages and fitness levels, the Super Strong Man set also comes with one 76-page user book, one copy of Terrell Owens Workout & Diet Guide, one fat-burning circuit-training DVD, and a storage/travel bag. The Super Strong Man resistance band set carries a lifetime warranty. |

 Best investment I made for all around exercise equipment |

| Reviewer: Triple Bogie, |
I recently purchased this TO Bodylastics exercise bands after a friend introduced me to them. I was kind of skeptical about it at first but thought the idea was really great since I don't have the room for all the large gym machines and this is very portable. I bought the TERRELL OWENS SUPER STRONG MAN SET because it came with the additional set of handles and door stopper which can be used for 2 people at once. I'm trying to get my wife to exercise with me. I also ordered the TO SET because I wanted the orange bands which does not come in the other set. When the set arrived I followed the DVD workout routine and got a great workout and sweat. Almost felt like I played racquetball for an hour straight. I found out that I will be using the lower resistance bands the most as the tension on the orange and even the black band is very intense for normal workouts like curls or triceps. I rather go lighter and work the muscle a few minutes until it starts to burn rather than going very heavy and short. I'll save the orange and black bands and use it for bench pressing while lying on my flat bench. These bands and all items included are very well made. The included bag is rather small to hold all the items so I just keep the whole kit stored in the box that it came in and it works just fine. I like the way the bands can easily clip on to the handle using the mountain climbing style clips. They even have markings etched onto clips to show the band pounds tension. It would be nice if Bodylastics come up with various exercise routines in a iphone app. Other than that there are many exercise apps on itunes which you can download and track your progress with exercises programs you create yourself. I would recommend Bodylastics to anyone who wants a great and intense work out in the privacy of their own home without spending on expensive space taking gym equipment. It's like a portable bow-flex and you can carry it around with you wherever you go or travel. If you are thinking of only working out by yourself, I feel the smaller set will be fine and will provide you with all the bands you will ever need. Get the TO set if you want the extra handles and extra door stop. Awesome product and I give it 5 Stars *****
Update...I just got really hurt the other day when the bands snapped back into the back of my neck while doing the laying down triceps exercise. The door anchor piece with attached bands and aluminum clips came flying back at me at about 100 mph hitting the back of my neck when the bedroom door somehow opened. I got hit really hard by the bands aluminum clips to the back of my neck with so much force that it left a bruise and almost broke the skin. I noticed that the screw in metal door latch piece that is in on the door frame came with the inside piece having a little angle to it and it prevented the door knob spring latch from entering all the way. I noticed that the metal door plate had the inside angled on all my other doors as well. The door knob brand was Falcon. I ended up removing the screwed in plate and bent the inside piece until it was completely flat so that the door knob spring latch can enter into it completely. I also attach a beach towel to the top part of the bands when it is attached to the door. I have a huge welt on the back of my neck and it's a good thing I was not facing the bands when this happened as it could have easily detached my retina if I was doing an exercise facing the door. I still love this Bodylastic set but take more precaution when using it. My neck still hurts badly from the hit of the bands powerful force.
It would be a good idea if the company writes in the manual or mention on their website of what type of door knob hinges to look out for or how to adjust if you have this type. It could do serious damage to you and you won't want to find out the hard way like I did. I would advise to always lock your door knob also when doing any of the exercises using the door attachment. If someone opens the door form the outside while stretching the bands on the other side, the bands could easily take out your eye as well. Be careful and check your door latch type before using.
Other than that...I would highly recommend the Bodylastic Set as i use it everyday in my daily exercise. But now with way more caution and a huge beach towel is attached if used with the door anchor. The towel is slow down the flying back bands with aluminum latches in case the door ever opens again while exercising. I'm going to create something better like a pillow attachment with velcro straps later for added safety in the future. |
Great

| These bands are great. They are not your standard bands, that is for sure! I love the clips at the ends to make changing or adding bands easy. The handles are large and comfortable and I like the pounds indicator on each band. Great product so far!! |
Excellent Product, Unfortunately Named...

I'm a 6'5", 215 lb guy, and I've tried other bands that have not given me the resistance that I've needed. I am in the second phase of "P90X" but because of my height/weight ratio I cannot do a lot of pull-ups or chin-ups. I've tried the "extra heavy" bands, and they've really not done that much for me. But with these bands, you can find the pull that you need, and without any fear that they're going to come loose from the handles. These are solidly constructed, bands of all resistance, and my wife and I are very pleased with them.
The one downside is the name. I considered sending them back because T.O. drives me crazy, but I decided against it.
Anyway, get these bands. I know they're more expensive, but they should last you much longer than the other bands. |
