At first I took one look at the kit and thought, nope. Then I took it out of the box and put it around my waist. I had to add the extra brackets (both of them). I have only used it twice for around ten minutes and, once I got the hang of it and the very little movement it requires, I think I may be addicted. I'm very self-conscious to use it in front of my husband but this is going to be the thing that changes everything for me. I have watched videos and cannot wait to see results. Its the most fun exercise I think I have ever done!
