Journey Gym –the Fitness Laptop
The journey gym system retails for $2227 via Amazon!
Now, I can sit here trying to tell you about how great the Journey Gym is for circuit training and how it is capable of transforming where and when you work out, as you will always have a gym with you…but why don’t I let you watch this two minute video give you the details. The Video will answer every question and doubt you may have. Go ahead…I’ll work out on my Journey Gym while you watch…
The Chief Blonde Remarks: So now that you understand how easy to use, effective, and laptop-like the Journey Gym is, now I’ll tell you what I think of it–and more important, what my working-out husband thinks of it. I thought I would be confused by the initial set up. It just looked so organized and simple, I didn’t think I could figure it out. So I showed it to Walt–who can figure out most anything (without directions). So while he opened the Journey Gym and poked around, I read the 5 easy set-up steps. I gave Walt a couple of pointers (HAHA) and we had it set up in 1 minute–really!
So here is me giving it a try:
Teehee! Actually it is super easy to set up. You just open it, attach the legs, attach the handles to the level of resistance band and start working out, like I am in the picture above. The Journey Gym comes with a work out/training video–yipee! I am horrible at figuring how to work out myself. My husband feels that he could use it in place of the gym in the basement, when he travels or if he just wants to work out upstairs in front of the TV! He is an experienced gym rat so the 20 different resistance bands that deliver from 5 to 75 pounds of resistance (and are built right into the gym) are what made a difference in his mind. I am only 5′ 4″ so the design fits me well, but Walt is 6’6″ –he was surprised how the Journey Gym has adjustable handles (just one touch of a button) to quickly accommodate his height. The gym can accommodate two people working out at once and will hold up to 350 pounds. Walt is a mere 215 pounds–so I can’t be over 135 pounds if we were to use it at the same time…hmmm. Oh well, I don’t want to show him up, so we will probably use it separately. My absolute favorite part (other than the fact Walt loves it) is that it stows right into our entertainment center, where we can reach it easily for daily use! Women over 45 and their husbands (and younger women too) will love Journey Gym.
what entices me is how you can store it so easily and that it is portable!
I like that it’s portable and very compact!
I like that it’s portable and multifunctional.
This is incredible!!!! I LOVE that it folds out as an actual bench! I WANT this!
The easy storage because I would want to keep it in my room
I was impressed when they said you can use it for 70 different exercises. That is a lot from a small portable gym. awesome.
I like that it’s so portable yet seems so sturdy.
I love that there are 70 exercises that fit in the convenient & spontaneous case! I so want this!
Over 70 exercises, works all the muscles and takes up no space. What’s not to love?!?!
How handy. Not only is it great for the home, but we travel frequently and this is perfect for taking with us. I don’t really like exercising in front of a lot of people, so this is perfect. Both my husband and I are in physical therapy and this would make it very convenient to keep up with the exercises.
This is perfect for a small space and perfect for me. I Love that is folds down.
I like that you use resistance bands and that its portalble!! I would love to do this while waiting on my kids at karate
I liked the part where it folds up bcause I constantly travel and need something small to take with me.
I love that it is so small & space saving, which I would REALLY need b/c we only have a 1200 sq. ft house with very little room for storage!
Im all about the spontaneous so this would be perfect
I like it because i really need something portable.
I like that it’s so easy to setup and use.
I don’t know that one single part sold me but rather the entire video. What a great idea. I know that when I try to work out from home I need to go look for my hand weights and find the DVD I want to work out too and half the time the kids or someone has moved them. This is so perfect to have everything you need all in one place ready to pull out and get to it anytime you have time!
I like how small and “un-combersome” it is. And the fact that it is so sturdy even though it’s so small and portable.
Thanks!

I like how small it folds and is self contained. Which is nice cause then I don’t have to worry about the baby getting on it
