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.
portability and wow how you can flip it over to sit on it and use it as a workout thats to cool
I love the portability!With 70 different exercises I’ll never be bored but most of all I can use it outside~ I am always more motivated in the fresh air! Great giveaway!!!!
I love the concept… how you can take it anywhere you go. If I go to my moms house for the weekend. Or go camping. Even if I stay in a hotel. The great thing is too that my husband and I both can use it. 🙂
Very easy to store, better than trying to store my exercise ball.
I think it is awesome that it is portable and easy to store!!!
i like how small it is, i live in a very small house and have no room for those big machines. this is great thanks
I have no room to leave bulky equipment out, so something I can slide under my bed is perfect, thanks!
i like that it looks easy
I love how small and portable it is. I could it even take it on vacation. 🙂
I love the versatility. 70 exercise in one compact case.
Just found your blog. Enjoyed reading all of the good information. Would certainly want to win one of your give aways. Am following you….

I can’t believe how portable this is! I could stick it in a backpack!!!
I like the variety of things you can do – you would never get bored with your workout
I love that there are 70 different exercises you can do with it. It’s great that it’s portable, too and you don’t need a workout room in your house to fit large pieces of equipment. The woman on the video stored her under her couch! Great giveaway – thanks for the chance to win!
Looks easy. Thanks for the chance to win!
I like that it’s small and portable!
The portability is what sold me. The reason is because when I try to work out with my DVD and hand weights I can never find them! Someone is always moving them around and this way I would know where everything was and be able to spend the time working out and not searching for everything I need!
I like when she pulls it out from under the couch to show the size and ease of use and storing!
The portability and the diversity make me want one. I love that it has so many workouts built in so small a package. I can do cardio and resistance and store it under the bed, or even take it on vacation. Thanks!
I LOVE that it’s easy to store, and portable!!! I so need something to help “encourage” me to work out – and a great big hulk of an exercise machine would just sit in the corner of my office, and it would join in with the dust bunnies in mocking my laziness.
This set however, seems like a great idea 🙂
