- nsummy, on 11/16/2007, -2/+36What a ***** site. If you are going to review the 5 worst infomercial products at least embed videos of said commercials. This site borderlines on complete spam.
- TWINFM, on 11/16/2007, -1/+20I just love the way infomercials make the simplest things look so difficult--like a sit up, or a push up--and they always have a fat sweaty guy trying to do one. Then he gets all confused and rolls over on his side and hurts is back and shakes his head...it's hilarious
- meruru, on 11/16/2007, -3/+15That's crazy talk, how can you perform that exercise without a big, metal device or giant fitness ball?!
- InuX, on 11/16/2007, -5/+17For 5 low easy payments of 29.95* but wait! call in the next 60 seconds and we'll knock one payment off so you'll have to pay 4 easy payments of 29.95*. But wait! Call in the next 5 seconds and get one free!
- inactive, on 11/16/2007, -3/+15People are too dam lazy, I have an invention it's called the superabmaximizer5000. It consists of a floor and your body. Lay on the ground do a crunch. It's more effective and it costs less.
- sundancekid503, on 11/16/2007, -2/+13The Ab Tronic should definitely be on this list:
http://www.tv-showroom.com/html/AbTronic.htm - stronglifts, on 11/16/2007, -4/+14Can those business owners sleep at night from selling stuff that doesn't work?
- Sp0rAdiC, on 11/16/2007, -4/+12Well the link he gave for his #1 worst fitness product had mostly good reviews...
- Jwoey, on 11/16/2007, -4/+11my favorite is, "Call in the next 60 seconds and we'll throw in this giant heavy oblong item for free! You just pay shipping and handling.
- floridiot2, on 11/16/2007, -2/+7I wanna make a product for 3 easy payments, and 1 hard ass payment.
- vdgmr1213, on 11/16/2007, -4/+9What? No videos? Burried
- spaceyraygun, on 11/16/2007, -0/+4what about hip hop abs? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3tCaEx-E_V4
- Berkana, on 11/16/2007, -1/+5Soloflex machines are not entirely useless. They can be hacked into wicked ballistas and catapults.
I'm surprised the direct electrical stimulation abdominal muscle building belts weren't included. Those and the dozens upon dozens of idiotic ab machines. - Dhalgren, on 11/16/2007, -1/+5And the colors are always really muted... I never understood that. Maybe it's to imply that "this is the old way"...
- PaperMonkey, on 11/16/2007, -1/+4So when you saw the Osim iGallop did anyone else think Symbian 2.0..?
http://www.brookstone.com/store/product.asp?pid=53 ... - astrotrain, on 11/16/2007, -2/+5Its a shame how washed up actors can get a gig to sell useless junk and make people "believe" it makes them loose weight.
- EclipseGSX, on 11/16/2007, -1/+4Don't forget the Gazelle, endorsed by the one and only Tony Little. Yeah, baby -- you can do it!
http://tonylittle.ytmnd.com/ - CaviMike, on 11/16/2007, -2/+5The Bodyblade's real purpose is for shooting invisible arrows.
- WorkingDead, on 11/16/2007, -0/+3If money was all it took to have a nice body, then everyone would have one. Seriously, if it was as simple as buying a diet pill or a certain machine then you would just buy that product and be done with it. What it really takes is time and effort, which not many people have both of. Also, the more out of shape you are, the harder it gets to start down the path. If you can make a habit out of exercise and stick to it for the first month, then it gets progressively easier. I've found that a much better investment that the latest infomercial craze is a good workout buddy.
- Cmstech, on 11/16/2007, -0/+3Long Live Mitch Hedberg!!!
- marksism, on 11/16/2007, -1/+4ON A BED OF MONEY WITH MANY BEAUTIFUL WOMEN
- ShooterMcGavin, on 11/16/2007, -1/+4My favorite workout machine informercial was always the Gravity Edge Home Gym... that was great. It was like an actual show.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jWzXz6wSfoY - reed311, on 11/16/2007, -0/+3The Gazelle is actually pretty decent. You won't get as good a workout as running, but it's good for people with weak joints. It's about the equivalent of a brisk walk; which isn't much, but if you do it for an hour per day, you will see results... and eat healthy of course.
- Bull985, on 11/16/2007, -1/+4Buried for not including John Basedow's "Fitness Made Simple"
- haterrade, on 11/16/2007, -1/+3lots and lots of expensive nutritonal supplements
- inactive, on 11/16/2007, -1/+3blasphemy
- kaoswriter, on 11/17/2007, -0/+2I definitely thought that was going to be some phone at first, and had to come back to your comment to make sure you really did just make a typo.
- einstevo, on 11/16/2007, -1/+3but dude! if you do crunches you instantly turn into a fat guy with a goatee, turn black and white, your neck starts hurting, and you give up after 3 crunches
- inactive, on 11/16/2007, -1/+3i came here just to say that ***** should've been the no. 1 scam in the universe, i can't remember what happened to mine
- haterrade, on 11/16/2007, -1/+2luckily they were sleeping on a Phipps Tempur-pedic foam mattress which rocks you to sleep!
- ObeseSnake, on 11/16/2007, -0/+1Tony Little is a golden god!
- jubilee123, on 11/16/2007, -0/+1Bad attempt at comedy
- macp, on 11/17/2007, -0/+1Even if you don't speak French, this is a hilarious infomercial by a French Canadian.
http://www.tetesaclaques.tv/video.php?vid=111 - bacchus1313, on 11/16/2007, -1/+2Yes, on a bed procured from the ill-begotten earnings of desperate fat people who cant fathom running, sit-ups, push-ups, or walking for Christ's sake. There are FREE ways to get exercise people, they just require more motivation than dialing a phone at 2 a.m..
- Tigress74, on 11/16/2007, -1/+2And if you call right now we'll throw in a Super Slicer!! or a set of Ginsu knives
- kmlixey87, on 11/16/2007, -1/+2The "Power Glide" is actually a good workout. and its not really an informercial product. it seemed to me that the website digg directed me to was a fitness blog, whereas the writer didnt seem to know much about what he was talking about.
- Dhalgren, on 11/16/2007, -0/+1Or the Ab-Abber 2000:
http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php/Ab-Abber_2000 - slayerab, on 11/17/2007, -0/+1What would I do with a million dollars?
Two girls at the same time - ArmandoM, on 11/17/2007, -0/+1That last payment must be made in wampum!
- n10cities, on 11/16/2007, -0/+1Meh....wait about 6 months and you can buy the same pieces of equipment for $5 at a yard sale....people dump that stuff real fast....
- doctechnical, on 11/16/2007, -1/+2That was the first thing I thought of when I saw the headline. A gadget that shocks your muscles into twitching. That sounds like a load of fun, like some sort of abdominal Tourettes Syndrome. Whee! Look at that blubber fly!
- law1ess, on 11/16/2007, -2/+3Tony LIttle's Gazelle is one of the worst EVER!
Here's a video of Tony Little showing some chic how to use his equipment. Starts out looking like a porno.
http://www.tonylittle.com/videos/TL012T.MOV - inactive, on 11/17/2007, -0/+1omg that is definitely number 1 haha that is so dumb
- PaperMonkey, on 11/19/2007, -0/+1huzzah for typos.... bah.
Stupid spell check not knowing what I actually meant to type... - doctechnical, on 11/16/2007, -0/+1Like that dude on the Dungeons and Dragons cartoon?
- Treshnell, on 11/16/2007, -0/+1haha, Body Blade. There's one going for $155 on the bay right now.
- Error601, on 11/16/2007, -0/+1I know a lot of people that like using slides. It's more fun than running. Cheap slides suck and should be called "trips" instead.
- Frisbinator, on 11/17/2007, -0/+1He is very wrong about the body blade. I'm going into Physical Therapy and have observed several offices who use it. Shaking that thing back and forth on an unstable surface is actually very challenging and is a very useful tool in strengthening stabilizer muscles all over the body. It is an excellent tool for people in rehabilitation as well as those who want to strengthen their core muscles.
- dextrocardia, on 11/16/2007, -0/+1Whenever I see that commercial, it always looks to me like his head doesn't match his body. Like he's photoshopped or something. Kinda puts him in the "Uncanny Valley."
- wolfboy2883, on 11/16/2007, -0/+1I'll stick with my dumbbells and running, thanks. May be painful and time consuming, but can't argue with the results.
