  Well, it all depends, really, on how much you use it, and if you use it in the right way. I personally have tried a few, but I prefer to go to a gym and use all their equipment, and get the benefit of some professional advice.
  
  However, I've read that the best home training equipment - and it's wayyy cheap - is a skipping rope. You know, boxers use these, lots of athletes do, and there are a lot of different things you can do with them. You can get them from Amazon. Lots of different types.

  You should evaluate advertising claims for fitness products carefully. exercise — with or without special equipment — is essential for good health. But be skeptical of claims that you will lose several pounds, inches or pant sizes in a short time… all those commercials ("7 inches in 7 days!" or "3 dress sizes in one month!") are a bit dubious.

  Look, the saying “no pain no gain” is the key here. you should ignore claims that an exercise machine or device can provide long-lasting, easy, "no-sweat" results in a short time. These claims are false: You can't get the benefits of exercise unless you exercise. If you want results – you have to make an effort. Try to find I friend to come with you to a weekly visits to a gym. That’s what I did and it worked.
