I have one that I used a couple of times and never really got into (I'm not a "machine" type person). It's one of those basic ones, and I got it primarily to do pull-ups with.
If anyone wants a 3 year old (maybe?) barely used Total Gym (cat hair may be included), I'd be very glad to get rid of it for the cost of shipping (which may be quite high, since I have to find and buy a box to fit it in). Just pm me.

I have one, and have not used it in a long time.
It was to bulky to get out all the time, and way to bulky to leave up in our small house. It gave me a great upper body workout, but did nothing for me on the lower half. Now mine was one of the first models. I bought it several years ago. Almost 7 year ago, I think. I think the newst ones have optional weight bars where you can put plate weights on and make squats much harder.

I've owned the Brenda Dygraf one as well as the lower model TG. The Ultra Glide is the Brenda Dygraf model but she doesn't sell these anymore however some are still available on Ebay. My son who plays football uses it everyday and you can tell the difference. He comments on how he notices a difference in his body every time he uses the machine consistently. It is excellent for his upper body but he does traditional squats for his legs. I find that it works my whole body just fine. I actually was thinking of upgrading to the QVC TG which I believe looks like an awesome machine for the price plus the newer TG has an easier way to change the resistance by just pulling a pin and raising it up or down. Much better then the older models. If my current Ultra Glide wears out (I've had it for 7 years) then I will definitely buy the TG off of QVC.
