I just bought this and am very pleased. It is so embarassing at the gym using the hip abducter machine. Now I can do this at home without people watching me. It is small, lightweight, and I could actually feel my muscles working. The only downside is that it only comes with instructions for three exercises. I'm sure there are more than that. Some people might find the resistance to be low, but this product is designed for women, and there arent a lot of women out there wanting huge thighs. If its too easy, your supposed to go slower in your reps and maintain balance to work your muscles harder.
