Best workout equipment I have ever bought

By Beatrice Floyd, Louisville, Kentucky, Verified Reviewer

After one month of working out, I lost ten pounds, 2.5 inches off of my waistline, 5 inches off of my hips, and have toned up my back, arm, butt, and leg muscles. I have more balance and energy. I love working out and watching the girls and Kelly for motivation. My daughter-in-law lost over 30 pounds and 22 inches. She told me about the Fit Board.

My advice is to listen to Gloria about taking it slow and at your own pace until you get your balance. It works. I do all six intervals, six times a week. I love, love, love the challenge and the results. Watch your diet. It doesn't make sense to workout and eat junk. Thank you Gloria Hoffman and your mom Linda. God bless you for creating something so easy but effective.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Simply Fit Board is great

By Tracy Anderson, Cape Girardeau, MO, Verified Reviewer

I am overweight, have severe degenerative disk disease, no cartilage at all left in my knees, and a ton of other health issues including PTSD. With my PTSD, it makes it hard for me to leave my house to exercise and with my other health issues traditional exercise is not going to cut it with me.

My board (I got the magenta one) has increased my balance by a considerable amount. I don't fall near as much as I used to, I am getting cardio by doing it very quickly and working up a sweat, I have lost some weight and toned, and the best part is, it is so much fun. I'm not going to lie, my calve muscles still ache afterward, since maintaining perfect balance uses more muscles than you think and you quickly know if you're not doing it right with this board because it will walk across the floor with you.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

The greatest weight loss ever

By Cheryl Callahan, Houma, Louisiana, Verified Reviewer

Well, I was weighing 228 lbs when I started, and now I'm at 165. I started from the get-go, and I really love my Fit Board. I tell people how good it is. I would recommend it to anybody that's looking to lose weight, tone and look great.

Balancing

By Rita Mosher, Wellsboro, PA, Verified Reviewer

I just received the Simply Fit Board, and have tried it out. I know I must be doing a little of something correct because I do feel my legs burning and do get sore when I tried it out.

My problem is with the balancing. Can someone give tips on how to balance correctly? I have watched the intro on the DVD that comes with it, and they make it look easy. I know I am not doing it correctly, because I can turn myself completely around, and from one side to the other. I would love to be able to get the hang of it, and I think it would help me out tremendously.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Simply Fit is the perfect fit for me. I've lost 34 pounds over 8 months and feel incredible.

By Terry Harris, California, Verified Reviewer

As 2017 started, I was nearly 35 pounds overweight and not sure what to do about it. After watching Shark Tank, I knew the Simply Fit Board was for me so on January 8th I bought my first board. Within 4 weeks, I lost 10 pounds using it 20 minutes a day, 3-4 times per week. That got my attention, so I decided to reconsider a few things I was eating. I removed some fast food from my diet and continued using the board. A few weeks later I was down 18 pounds. Awesome!

Suddenly I started having a sore tooth, so I went to see my dentist. It turned out to be an infection and a 3-week nightmare, of which I could not exercise or workout (getting my blood pumping would cause great pain).

I missed my Simply Fit Board. I missed it badly.

During this downtime, I decided to go through my closet and try on some of the nice clothes that I had not been able to wear for many years. I was amazed. Some of them I could actually fit in and some I was really close. I knew I had more work to do but was feeling re-energized.

Finally, the swelling and infection were gone and I resumed using my Simply Fit Board. I kept on a steady plan of 3-4 times per week using many of their exercises shown on the DVD. Just about the time I had lost more than 20 pounds, I dislocated a rib on my left side. I thought I was going to pass out. The pain was intense.

Ugh! That means 2-3 more weeks of not being able to use my SF Board due to the swiveling. I was able to do some speed walking during this time, which allowed me to maintain my weight, but I knew in order to really lose the weight I wanted to I would need the Simply Fit Board workouts.

Finally, I resumed my exercising on the board and started doubling my plank and ab workouts. To date, I've lost about 34 pounds and can fit into any and all of the clothes hanging in my closet. I am now wearing slacks I had not worn in nearly 20 years.

I love my Simply Fit Board and continue to use it to maintain my incredible weight, as well as working the belly fat that a 58-year-old man has to deal with into muscle.

Others in my life are asking how I lost the weight and after telling them about the Simply Fit Board, some are using it for themselves. I just got an email today from a client that I work with who said he bought one after we talked and he's lost 5 pounds in 2 weeks. That's what it's all about!

I love you Simply Fit Board. You are a perfect fit for me and my health!

Amazing!

By Amanda Mann, Virginia, Verified Reviewer

This is low impact and perfect for those of us with knee or joint problems. I've done everything from to just twisting in front of the TV to following YouTube workouts. It's helped me trim down and lose weight (about 30 lbs in 9 months). I LOVE IT!

Love my board

By Joanne M., Pennsylvania, Verified Reviewer

I am 70 years old and received a board as a gift. My balance was not what it used to be but after a few days, wow, what an improvement. I've had it for two years and got on it ten days ago, and it cracked. I'm not heavy and use it as instructed. I was very sad but decided to contact the company, and they couldn't have been nicer. They asked that I send them a picture of the crack, and I couldn't do it on my computer (skills are not that great)! They were so kind they sent me a brand new one that I received yesterday.

I am back on it today! I have never dealt with customer service that was so easy and nice. I told my daughter when I saw her at lunch with her friends, and they asked about it and mentioned their parents could use something like this too. I know it 's good for exercise but my main concern is balance, and I would recommend this to anyone.

Love it

By Cammie C., Idaho, Verified Reviewer

I was skeptical at first, but after one day I was addicted. I keep seeing terrible reviews, but it works great for me. It took me a while to stay in one place, but once I got my balance, I noticed results. I do the ab and core workout and my posture is straighter and my abs feel tighter. I like it because I'm pretty lazy and it's a quick workout, and it has improved my overall health.

It works if you take your time.

By Brian H., Columbia, MO, Verified Reviewer

Like with any exercise, you have to start off slow and work your way up to going faster. First get your balance on the board by rocking on it. Then start twisting slow and work your way up. By doing this, you will stop falling off the board, and it will not creep across your floor. I use it through-out the day. Beats being run over by vehicles when running/jogging/walking. I started feeling my leg muscles getting sore from day one, and then the other muscles as I progressed up.

Truly works!

By Roberta B., Strongsville, OH, Verified Reviewer

I sincerely hope this review helps others that are thinking about trying this fit board. I truly do it every day for 10-15 minutes and I have dropped my jeans size from 12 to 8 - unbelievable. My top size was Large - now it is Small. I would not have believed it until it worked for me. I am 67 years old and feel amazing from this fit board.
