These items are just too weird to be used as fitness equipment. Instead it should be under the entertainment section in stores. The wi-fi scale is just wrong in so many ways.
wow, interesting gadgets :) and to think I'm just using a simple treadmill. Hahah in fact, I even made a review about it in my blog :P
I've thought "ab belts" went out of style long time ago. Were they not proven completely useless?
P.S. I think I still got one in the garage :)
The most interesting gadget there is the Robot Personal Trainer, I love to try that gadget if its really effective:)

Yes, these are read gadgets.
hey this is really weird as for fitness gadgets are interesting..
Ropeless Jump Rope looks interesting:)
I can't imagine how the flex belt could possibly work.
it seems these gadgets were developed in order for us to be more lazy.
but i love the wifi scale... i need that for my wife :D
Thanks for a great blog with many interesting posts!
My money is on the WiFi scale. To have your weight and progress broadcast over the social network is all motivation you should need... lol
Do Ab Belts work? I thought they were fitness snake oil that went out long ago?
interesting gadgets and indeed weird too...i like the horse riding gadget.

Great! glad to be here in your site. I love it.
I like the robot personal trainer. Looks kind of cute! One more unnecessary but funny fitness gadget :o) Thanks for sharing!

The ropeless jump rope is a little pointless as part of the intensity of the workout is the focus on getting the rop to clear your feet, otherwise it's just jumping up and down! But maybe it could be useful to built confidence before you move onto a real rope!
Great Post!
Cool gadgets!Have you heard of the iphone app, The BodyBuilding game? It's a lot of fun.
Looking points are great, having good sound..!!

Wow didnt even know these existed! great post!
Interesting if the gadgets are effective but I will look into it. Thanks
High-tech hopping? Are you kidding? I won't be surprised if it was invented by British scientists. Or Japan ones, they are also very eccentric.
I think my favorite weird fitness tool is The Rack. The infomercial is hilarious...those guys did NOT get chiseled by lifting a 30 lb walker.LOL
Interesting how many cool gadgets are out there!
Love your blog by the way! I've started a health and beauty blog come check it out! Nothing really on yet but there will be soon! Please subscribe!!

Hi, thanks for providing these item list & all are looking helpful & effective for us.
Nice Blog...
The robot looking thing is the weirdest! I wonder what benefit you can get from it :)
ropeless jump rope?! its just a waste of money
My personal favorite has to be the ropeless skipping rope. Might as well just jump up and down on the spot by yourself
hilarious! I'm tried that seat at Sharper Image.
Hi Interesting blog :) Please feel free to visit and leave some feedback to a newbie fitness blogger.
Will.

I always say I'm gonna just give up working out and wear a Contour belt while using an Ab Circle and eating Nutrisystem while watching Chuck Norris on his super gym doodad! :)
Great Post! such a nice blog. Thanks
HAHA love the creativity of people!
Weird? That's a very weak word for such gadgets ) Aren't british scientists intentrs of them?

Thanks for a great blog with many interesting posts!
The robot personal trainer is ridiculous .. that sounds more of a gimmick but the flex belt actually works well and is an fda approved ab belt too i've tried it and bought it from flex belt canada and it actually makes your abs feel pretty worked but won't get you a crazy ripped six pack, you'll have to work your abs the hard way like crunches and situps etc to get the six pack.
Yeah, that rope less jump rope would come in handy for the uncoordinated :).
Yeah these gadgets are so weird but I hope it will work and make someone's body beautiful, nice post I enjoy reading it!

Can't beleive these items made it to the shelves!! I'm sure they'v made the inventors a lot of monies!! Very interesting article but il stick to the simple treadmill and weights XD
Indeed! it's weird. But the fact that you used it, I salute you girl. Many readers will have a funny impression to you. But thats ok.. as long as you are happy and contented using it.
Hi! I saw the flex belt and I actually bought those last month. Sadly It does not work. I am hoping for a refund but I my son played with it and He makes it a part of his superpower tools so I am not returning it to the mall.
I agree with your Comments.!
Definitely some weird and (not so) wonderful fitness gadgets out there. And people swear by them.

Hi,
An interesting post! I think that even if it's the age for new technology, a good run is still better. The cool morning air in your face, the lazy morning sounds you hear as you pass by your street, the smell of freshly brewed coffee... Nothing beats that! But if I had to really pick one, I'd opt for the jumping rope without a rope. I find it amusing but interesting. It would probably be weird to be using it at first but if it proves to help, then I'm game for it! :)
Diva,
I think the robot would be for me! I find him very cute. I will probably have loads of fun exercising with that robot. It's like having my own RTD2 (Starwars) around :) The other pick I have is the jumping rope without the ropes. I think that'll be cool. This post is interesting and fun!
The iGallop looks interesting. I wonder if it really provides a good core workout.
I agree with your blog and this is really weird as for fitness gadgets are interesting.
I like these weird gadgets as Natasha does. It's how you perceive the usage of these things and how you program yourself to get fit. Nice idea.
ropeless rope? how are you gonna get up in the air with that kind of gadget? I would still prefer to use the old once so that I can see the rope which is necessary to adjust my foot work and timing.
this gadgets information very help full, thanks to share

I really like the ropeless jump rope. Imagine without having to stop because you've tripped over. I am having second thoughts if I should buy one now.
Great Post! I really surprised on this product it's so beneficial for fitness surely i will use this. Thanks for sharing us!
I rather have a punching bag on that robot stretching assistant. Since I can punch all the way and exert of effort in burning calories. And besides I can stretch on my own.
I note the Ropeless Jump Rope is the first simple gadget that helps :P
The best ones I would care to try are the ropeless jump rope, I wonder how it would feel jumping rope without the actual rope. The other is the robot personal trainer, wouldn't mind getting into the futuristic feeling for once, I'll have my personal R2D2. :)
Hi, I so liked the Robot Personal Trainer. For sure it's like watching a video on fitness and imitating its moves. Looks exciting!
I think these are just fad exercise equipments. I don't really expect it to boost anything except popularity. At the end of the day, the basics are still the ones I would turn to.
Wow fantastic gadgets especially Ab Belt. I think these will make me more interested in losing weight.

These are really weird exercise gadgets. What I am most interested at is the Ropeless Jump Rope! How does this thing work? Also, I'd like to feel how it is to work with a robot while exercising!
I like the idea of the jump rope not sure about the electric horse...:)

its not really a gadget but the new kettlebells they have are really sleek and look more interesting than this stuff. i just started working out a new gym where kettlebells are a huge part of the training. I'm already noticing that I'm more tone after only few months with my Michigan personal trainers. http://aoskettlebells.com/michigan-personal-trainers/
Brilliant....

That's can keep you more motivated to keep exercising =)
There are numerous gadgets you can buy but they are not necessary.
You can get a great work out with a simple skipping rope or no equipment at all.
Interesting items... but maybe its just too expensive. im using just the regular one : )
I want the robot! :)
Interesting! Will have to try these out!
Attention grabbing gadgets. I would probably use them for a day and forget about them - except for maybe the jump rope - it's convenient if you have low ceilings - but I feel like I wouldn't jump as high as I do with a real one.
Whether you're after a full body makeover, or you just want to get up and move more, those devices prepared by Fitness Diva will help you reach your goal.
That's hilarious!!! Thank goodness I have my body weight, DB and swiss ball to help me workout. Great blog!!! XxDani

Well I think the post is very good for fitness lovers.
This is my first visit to your site and I'm glad I was been able to stumble upon your webpage. I'll bookmark this page from now on.
Great Fitness Gadget that you have given in your post.
These are really weird gadgets. I'd have to pass on these and go back to those I believe works best for me like the 'manual' jump ropes and heavy yet durable elliptical machines. :)
Nice gadgets to use for maintaining fitness level and grow it. I think all gadgets are quite difficult to use.
Wow, so many fitness things I haven't seen before!
I really love this post you have made.
Keep the good work! :-)

Fast forward to the 20th century, and the knowledge and use of this technology in medicine, sports, and now everyday use in items such as The Flex Belt or similar ab toning belts.
