Broomhandle Twist



I'm not easily suckered into T.V. Sales commercials but recently there has been one to

catch my eye and enhance my imaginative mind of a long lost athletic body.


Every time I put on a pair of jeans or pedal pants with a knit shirt, I am appalled at the

loss of my 'rub-board abs' and the development of that little 'sausage-roll' around my middle.


The promise of re-gaining this “ideal”, youthful body captured my imagination. I started researching store locations and prices for this wonderful piece of equipment!







Get ripped with the RED XL Exerciser. It uses the
power of core rotation and resistance to slim, sculpt and strengthen your core and midsection without having to do another back-breaking crunch or sit up ever again!




*RED's biomechanical innovation targets that stubborn area while comfortably seated
*Deep, padded comfort seat
*Add up to 80 lbs. of Torsion Max resistance to make your workouts even more challenging
*Supports up to 250 lbs with comfort handles
*Workout DVD and nutritional program included
*Up to 24 different exercises

While visiting with my sister in Lubbock, my niece and her husband came by to say hello. During the course of all our talk, I mentioned the fact that I wanted to go to Walmart to buy the Wonder Machine!
My niece's husband said..."Save yourself a hundred bucks and use a broom handle and do the broomhandle twist! It does the same thing and saves you a lot of money."
Well....at our age, and on our budget, we really don't need extra expense so I'm trying the "broomhandle twist".
But my mind keeps telling me how cute that little red twisty seat would look and how my friends would all be so impressed!!
Oh, well....back to the broom handle!

Thank you, thank you...so much!

At least you have rub-board abs to miss. I used to be a lot thinner than I am now but I have never had amazing abs. I think you look great just like you are!!!
