Just finished watching the infomercial. I thought it was good and gave a good idea of what you get and great uses for the Zip Trainer. I really enjoyed the testimonial by the breast cancer survivor, Cheryl. Her workout space was pretty with the Fanny Lifter and the Wave as props. I also enjoyed the segment of the MIs doing a move then rolling or tossing the ZT to the next MI.

I just watched the infomercial and I hated it.

The narrator had no energy. The format was bad. The testimonials were too long and over rehearsed.

I got sick of hearing Emily saying "you can use it as a 5 pound weighted medicine ball".

I was kind of weirded out by how everybody seemed to be staring into space while they talked (presumably because they used a take from the #2 or #3 camera instead of the one people were talking into).

I did like how they've come up with a new term for the same old thing "Short Burst Training". It's not as catchy as "Aerobic Weight Training", but it's pretty good.

When I combine all of that infomercial fail with the facts that I've never been a huge Emily fan and that I've never really clicked with Kelsie either

---and--- with the fact that I hate instability trainers because I sort of really don't want a broken ankle---

----and the really super extra pathetic part of the whole deal is ----

----I still kind of want it.

I think just because it's "The Firm" and I feel like a turncoat for not buying it.

Sad isn't it?

Oh well. At that price, I think I can resist it a while longer.

Yes, you can. I am sure they will lower that price in a few months.
