Chest Expander with 5 Adjustable Levels, 60 lbs to 300 lbs - Built-In Pedal, Honeycomb Grips, Reinforced Fabric Springs

Excellent chest expander!!!

I am a weakling when it comes to upper arm and chest strength so one band is enough for me. I will agree with one of the reviewers that mentioned they were having a tough time getting the cables loose. They aren't that easy to remove, but with some effort and persistence, I did get all but one removed. Even with one I struggle to do this. For what it's worth, I have never had good upper body strength. I have always focused more on exercises that strengthen my legs...jogging, squats, etc.The expander seems to be well made. The resistance bands are covered in material. I remember my Grandpa has these things and they had metal coils, so I do like that this doesn't have those, because I remember getting my skin pinched in the expander my Grandpa had. If you are older, like me, you probably remember those ones. It definitely gives me a workout, and I feel like it would work for the majority of the people with the fact you can remove or add the bands to fit your strength level. I have only used it a short time, but I do feel like I am getting stronger and I do feel like it is helping (in conjunction with other exercises) me build up my upper body strength.

I have not been able to remove 3 of the bands in order to use the Expander. Says it is easy to do that, DEFINITELY NOT TRUE! It is made very well and once I get 3 of the bands off will enjoy using it 😎

I've tried the metal versions of these expanders; I highly prefer these. It's quieter and easier to adjust, and you don't have to worry about the coils giving you a pinching of a lifetime. I'm lucky I have a wide wingspan, as it runs a little wide. This causes it to hit a little more of the shoulders, which isn't bad.This thing is quite a challenge at first until you work your way up, surprisingly so. The cheaper versions, even the metal ones, don't offer this much resistance. The handle design is alright and aids in grip, but instead of a hex pattern I would have preferred a solid or soft knurl type design; at the wrong angle the hex design can be uncomfortable.I wasn't expecting too much from this, but it turned into something I'm looking forward to using for years. Highly recommend.

Like most of us, I'm sure, I sit too much, rounding my shoulders and weakening my upper back.I wanted to test this unit out as a handy tool for working out my middle back where I'll tend to have weakness, leading to shoulder issues. So far, this unit does the job well. The key here is convenience. I'll use this during little breaks. Every time I'll get up, I'll just do a set. Convenience means frequency, and frequency has really been helping me get my shoulders and back where they belong, even when I can't get away from my desk.Useful Observations:- Great for doing a back fly and other middle back workout variations. It hits that spot right between your shoulder blades like nothing else.- The image of the guy using all cables is a Photoshop joke. ONE cable is plenty for even a fit male to do a back fly.- There are a lot of great videos on how to effectively use a chest expander on YouTube and I recommend checking them out for getting a full workout in.- This unit is okay for doing bicep curls.What I liked:Quality- I've had rubber bands explode while working; scary. These fabric covered bands protect from any injury, which is nice.Features- The bands come out without too much trouble. They're just snug enough to swap and be secure. I imagine you'll only use 2 or 3 max really for daily work.What I didn't like:- the width is pretty set. I can imagine having variable lengths instead of just more weight, allowing for more moves and more nuance.
