The OYO Personal Gym – lose weight and get fit anywhere and at any time

NEWS – For quite some time, my family has pursued a healthy lifestyle with major changes to our diet and our exercise habits. Personally, I have lost approximately 50 pounds, and so far, I have kept the weight off for over a year. As a part of my exercise routine, I walk about 2 miles every Monday thru Friday, back and forth from the railroad to my job. However, I work long hours, and I have not been able to utilize our treadmill at home as I would like to. Honestly, after a long day, it is sometimes mentally difficult to get on the treadmill for 45 minutes. Also, I was a bodybuilder for many years, and I much prefer to be able to target specific muscle groups for each and every workout. Since I no longer work out with weights, an effective option would be great.

Enter the OYO Gym! This exercise apparatus promises to give you the flexibility and ability to target the specific muscle groups, without the need for weights and all that goes with using weights. It touts itself as a total body portable gym, featuring SpiraFlex resistance technology that replaces weights. It only weighs 2 pounds and provides up to 25 pounds of smooth resistance, and it folds up small enough for you to carry in your bag or even in your back pocket. The manufacturer also claims that it combines strength with movement, without weight or momentum. In addition, they offer a free OYO app to help you with your workouts.

If you would like to learn more about the OYO Gym or purchase one, you can do so on Amazon. It is available for purchase for $149.95.
