does this help tone and build muscle

I'd be very skeptical about any claims about building muscle/tone. It is very good for strains and sprains and brings symptomatic relief.

If you work out with it constantly, it will help build your body, but only if you have the body type that will change. But this product will only do so much, also it will damage any door you put it on. Interior doors are hollow an cant support it.

I think it may be something to put into your workout overall. I mean, I do yoga and weight training too. I would not suggest making this your main workout. It is however a great starter!

No, this is not a muscle building product. It is meant to burn fat by increasing your core body temperature. No muscle building traits to it.

Yes, they made a huge difference in toning my arms so far. I do at least 25 count backwards and forward since I am a beginner. Combined with 4 to 5 pounds weight training and mostly push ups and tricep dips � love it!

I don't think so. I suffer from chronic bell's palsy and use this product for a different reason than most buyers. The condition weakens muscles on one side of the face and this device strengthens and stimulates the muscles to improve function. Nevertheless studies have shown that muscles are timeless. Even very old people benefit from training muscles with progressive resistance. As the face ages the colllagen in the skin decreases and the skin becomes loose. Stimulating muscles may not directly affect this but nevertheless even a person with loose, wrinkled skin would see a significant improvement in overall appearance if the underlying muscular structure of the face is toned. In addition the stimulation improves circulation to the skin which would also help improve appearance. I think anyone can benefit from this device at any age.

yes... absoloutely - it works great for all levels and there are so many different ways to use it. Great product with a great work out.

This would not come close to increasing heart rate or burn calories like aerobics. It works best for getting circulation to the legs and toning the arms.

I am unable to answer if this is good for toning. I primarily use it for a break from the other mundane workouts because it is so fun. My three year old has asked me to put it on for here to simply play along with. The shakers with it will help with toning your arms, but that's about it.

Yes, it works very well. It sounds off when to begin your workout and lets you know when your time is up. If you set a break it will give an audible tone for that as well.

I have found that it does. However it may depend on the type of muscle injury you may have. I use it a lot for my arthritis and fibromyalgia pain. Over all I would recommend it for almost all types of muscle pain,

Possibly. Stretching like this is known to help lengthen muscles -giving a longer leaner look. l I use it in conjunction w/ other excersise DVD's (pilates, Tracy Anderson Mat, etc...) to create a well rounded work out plan for the week. I work this DVD into the rotation about 3x per week. I love this routine! I feel so flexible and relaxed every time I finish it.

Yes. This system is only good for minor workout. If you want to "increase" your triceps, the tri bar will be better. Nonetheless with this push-up press i change my routines, shuffle them around and increase reps and sets. But that's just me. Hopefully I help answered your question.

Bobby-I would not buy it for that. It may help indirectly, but no more than arm exercises would strengthen them normally. It isolates the bicep curl movement, and triceps pull down movement.-Doug

Yes, it strengthens and targets the core muscles. A stronger core will help the back.

No bro! You can get toned. That's just about it really. Lifting weights and protein shakes are for muscle mass.

Yes. I've been using this for a month and can already see results. There are two workouts on the DVD which really get you sweating. High reps Will also get u what ur asking about. Mine has been a great investment for the same thing.
