Great tool for burning calories

By Robert J., Shreveport, LA, Verified Reviewer

First, let me say I bought my first Simply Fit Board on a whim in February 2018 while in a checkout line in Walmart.

I started doing 10 minutes, steadily increasing the length of time until I reached 2 hours. When I started in February, I weighed 216 pounds, not fat just stocky, and this morning I weighed in at 182 pounds.

I googled "how does a 62-year-old lose his belly fat" and the answer was simple, burn 500 more calories than you consume. I quickly went on a diet counting my calories and used my Garmin watch to monitor my calories burned and noticed the longer I stayed on the Simply Fit Board, the more calories I burned. Currently, I'm doing an hour and a half on the board and burn between 1500 and 2000 calories before 8 AM. I am down from a tight 36-inch waist to a loose 34-inch waist.

I recently visited my doctor and she was so impressed with the weight loss and how it affected my cholesterol and could speak highly enough about my results.

Let me add, if you use the Simply Fit Board as I do, you will have to replace it about every 4 months, I just bought my third, it's plastic and nothing plastic last forever.

One other benefit that I did not count on, I move from sitting to standing on average 60-70 times a day Monday thru Friday at work and my hips were killing me, but now I am pain-free and the only thing I can attribute that to is the Simply Fit Board.

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

I really like this

By Elizabeth B., California, Verified Reviewer

I purchased the Simply Fit Board at a discount retailer about six months ago. I use it daily as a balance board with my standing desk at work. I love the Simply Fit Board so much more than the basic rocker board I started with. I feel more energized as I work and enjoy taking brief breaks to twist to music or listen to podcasts and exercise my abs. I definitely miss it when I am just standing on solid ground at my desk. I use other means to stay fit the rest of the time, but when I am at work, this is a wonderful solution. I've used my board for about six months with no trouble at all.

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

I like it and so do my coworkers

By Blank, Arizona, Verified Reviewer

My sister and I both bought one. I've only had my fit board for a couple of weeks now, so I am not sure yet if there is any weight loss, but I am hopeful. I try to do a 3-5 minute workout at my desk each hour. I share it with my coworkers who then do a 3-5 minute at their desk. We all love it and I agree with another review writer's comment, my balance does seem to be getting better and the board isn't walking as much. I'm pretty much staying in the same spot. You can even do squats while you are twisting. I promise you if you use it, you'll feel you are using it in your muscles. I'm hoping for some muscle toning more than weight loss. I'm happy with my purchase. I think you get what you put into it. This is my humble opinion.

The place where it was made

By Joelle, Minot, North Dakota , Verified Reviewer

Love it, but they could've had it made in the USA. Disappointed in that part. Support your country!

Love it.

By Susan, Florence, MS, Verified Reviewer

It took a little time to get the hang of balancing. My calves felt it more than anything because of the shape of the board, but bending my knees helped with easing the discomfort of my calves. I've used it with the first workout provided on the DVD. That workout was 10 minutes. I don't know yet if the rest of the workouts will be the same length. I watched TV while doing the basic twist exercise.

I bought it at WalMart. If I had bought it online, I would have gotten the mat that goes with it. If you don't get your balance right, you will "travel" across the room. Overall, I like the product and its ease of use.

Customer Service

By Kimberly, Anaheim, CA, Verified Reviewer

I strongly agree that the website needs lots of improvement. For the world of technology, there is no email address to ask questions. I work two jobs, and there is not enough time to call.

My problem is that after five minutes on the board, my ankles are on fire. Is this normal? Who do you ask? Does it end if I keep it up? For all the hype about this product, I am disappointed in the website and lack of foresight in planning for customer questions.

I will say that it's a lot of fun, not sure if it produces the results, as five minutes a day won't give me a good measure.

Good

By Shelby, Verified Reviewer

I am pretty fit for a 60-year-old woman, as I do half marathons, ski and do weights. I was pleasantly surprised when I started using the board as I got an elevated heart rate and felt the muscles in my legs working. I have just started using it, primarily to watch TV, and think it is a really good addition to my exercise gear and regime.

Pretty nice

By Jaime, Florida, Verified Reviewer

I ordered mine for Christmas from the Simply Fit Board website, and it came on time, with no problems.

I love twisting away while I watch TV. The DVD is way too easy for me. I am not in shape by any means, but I feel like it is over before I am even out of breath. The ab workout on the DVD is the only one worth doing.

Overall, I like it.
