I bought this several years ago and just now came across this sight, so I thought I would add my 2 cents. Save your money on this. Yeah you think you are doing good with the bar, but in the end thats all it is, would be cheaper to buy some bands. I even received a refund from the fraud department on this. Honest reveiw here, lets see if it makes it. SAVE your MONEY

I started with bodyflex years ago and saw nearly instant results. I went from a size 20 to a size 12-14 in a matter a months. If done properly it does get your heart racing and your muscles working in a matter of minutes. I got lazy and stopped for awhile, now I'm back on it and again seeing very amazing results. If it's not working for you please review the instructions again and be sure to get the stomach roll right, I've found that can make all of the difference. The energy boost I get from doing Bodyflex would be worth the workout alone.

I'm 36 & I purchased Body Flex at an online auction last week(1st program without the exercise bar) to see if the breathing technique would help me with physical pain managment. Traditional "deep breathing" didn't do it for me. This afternoon I decided to try and get my mind off the pain by forcing myself to do something else. I remembered my Body Flex tapes & started the instructional video. After practicing the breathing technique for about 30 minutes and doing the 15 minute beginner workout I felt something I haven't felt for quite some time.... HOPE. The pain in my body decreased just enough to provide some relief. I'm timing it, and as I write the pain relief has lasted 4 hours now. I'm excited for tomorrow to come so I can test it again and see what happens. The proof was real for me today. Here's to tomorrow. Cheers.

I tried this product after I had my first child nine years ago. I just could not lose the weight or the inches after dieting and trying aerobics tapes for about a year. They helped, but it wasn't enough. Before my pregnancy I was a size 8. I just could not get down past a 10. I used the Body Flex program and went down to a size 6 in a manner of three months. I had my third child a year ago and just cannot get the weight off. Time is just not on my side with three children:) I don't know why it has taken me this long to remember how well the Body Flex system works and how little time it takes. 18 minutes three times a week is doable. I hope I can still find my tape.

In 2003 I wanted to lose the last 15-20 pounds from pregnancy, prior to a family event. After 5-6 weeks, I was amazed at how little effort one has to make for such a big result. (I'm the type who can never lose, and I'm hypothyroid). Recently, I gained 50 lbs. while under an endocrinologist's and a nutritionist's care.I've gone to alternative MDs, a different nutritionist, and accupuncturist. After 7 months of liquid shakes and controlled food portions, tons of exercise and no cheating, I've only lost 9 pounds. I am at the end of my rope--I never had a double chin in my life, but I do now. I was sleepless last Friday, and saw Greer Childers' infomercial on Body Flex Plus in the middle of the night.Was it fate? I started the program on Saturday morning at 5AM. I hope that this will yield the same wonderful results I got the first time around.

I started using Body Flex+ after my sister lost 6 inches in one week! I lost 7 inches the first week and 4 1/2 inches the second week doing just the 20 minute a day workout! I'm only in my 3rd week. As far as dietary changes, I drink a lot more water. I can't wait to see what will happen if I also start eating correctly! I am adding the target toning this week also.

You name it, I've done it... and I doesn't matter what anyone says... Body Flex WORKS! I purchased Greer's tapes in 1999 and and since then, I've been a believer. I don't have her newer tapes but the old ones seem to be working just fine... I love it! It only takes minutes of your day, there's no excuses.

I have tried both of Greers Body Flex's. Personally I like the old one better, as I got more results from it. It gives you more energy, works towards getting a leaner thinner body and because of this it builds your self esteem. I am a mother of 2, and at my 2nd pregnancy I was over 240lbs.(a far cry from before weighing in at 160 being 5"10.5) Together with Weight Watchers I went down 60lbs with the assistance from Greers Body Flex. It definatily works!!!! It is something that one has to do on regular bases, and when it is done on the empty tummy, and is done properly, it so works! Did I mention how great I feel after I've done the tape??

Believe it or not i first ordered this product when i was 14(i'm 21 now). I got it and popped in the tape, and it looked so wierd! And of course being 14 i wasnt going to do that. Stupid me!!! A few years later i decided i should give it a fair chance. 5 weeks before my birthday i decided to try it to lose some weight for the big day. In that 5 weeks i lost a total of 19 1/2 inches! I could see a huge difference in my stomach, which is my problem area. Dont let the looks of it fool you at all!!! It really works, and breathing that deeply everyday makes you feel great. You become so energized from the extra oxygen you're taking in. Most people dont realize how shallow they really breathe normally. Oh and another thing ... when losing weight never look at pounds lost. Losing a few pounds wont get you into a smaller size...but a few inches lost will! Especially when building muscle it may not look as if you're losing weight because you're gaining muscle (which is heavier than fat). This is why they instruct you to measure yourself...because inches lost is what really matters.

I know that everyone says the Body Flex is easy to use. But beware if you have any neck, shoulder or arm problems. I have some nerve damage in my neck from a car accident and after using the program for just 2 days I was in so much pain when I laid down to go to sleep that I could not rest. I tried using the program anyway and finally gave up. It requires a lot of use with your shoulders and I could not do the over the head exercises. For me it was a waste of money.

I began using body flex after the birth of my first child. I thought it looked so funny and that there was NO way something so silly could work. After my first week I lost 7 and 1/2 inches combined. Within one month I was in all of my prepregnancy clothing AND I still weighed 20 pounds more than I had before my son was born! These videos work! After three ful months of doing the program every morning before breakfast, I lost a total of 36 inches all over my body! I quit doing them, but kept the inches off until the birth of my daughter. I have just started the program again. My daughter is almost 2. I have lost 5 inches in my first week and will continue to do the video. For the past 18 months I have walked 3 to 4 miles a day and not seen a dramatic weekly weightloss like I have with the Body Flex system. There's nothing that works for EVERYONE, but I believe that these videos work for most that are willing to do them on an empty stomach and do the breathing correctly. If you are looking for the simplest way to lose inches without vigorous exercise...BODY FLEX is IT!!!!

I will be BodyFlexing as long as I live! I have the Body Flex+ with Gymbar as well as the Original Body Flex. In the BF+, all the breaths and positions are done sitting in a chair. In the Original BF, the breathing and positions are done while standing. I feel I get better results from doing Body Flex while standing. The breaths seem to be more invigorating and the abdominal roll/tuck is more effective. I found the original BF tapes []. I also have The Body Flex+ with Gymbar DVD set, available online and select retail stores. I got mine at []. The Gymbar is a great addition for the weight bearing exercise, and the new "target toning" routines on the DVD really boost the strength and toning benefits to a higher level.

I first tried the deep breathing exercises about 5 years ago. I had gained some weight and couldn't seem to lose it. My friend and I tried it together and I didn't lose any pounds or inches but she did. I was really frusterated and so she told me maybe it would help if she watched me to see if I was doing it right. Well, after watching me she told me I wasn't sucking in my stomach enough. I tried it for another week and lost 10 pounds and several inches and my clothes were loose on me! I think the people who aren't getting results aren't doing it correctly! When done correctly it really works! Every weight loss program tells you about the most extreme results, but they also tell you the results will vary. Most people will not have such extreme results. I don't know why Greer is being singled out for doing the same thing every weight loss program does!

I have been on the Body Flex system for 4 days now. I got curious and decided to do some measuring today and I've already lost 3 inches off of my waist!!!!! I'm a college student with a full time job and this program is so quick that I can do it in a matter of minutes when I wake up in the morning. I'll keep you all posted on my progress as weighing in at 245 I have quite a bit I need to lose but if things keep going like this maybe I'll be on the new Body Flex package one day!

I'm a college student and I bought Body Flex with the little amount of extra spending money I had. I saw the infomercial and thought I'd give it a try because I needed to lose about 30 pounds. I was really excited when I got the product and tried it right away. I'm sorry, but the program is totally goofy! I had to make sure no one was around when I was doing the breathing exercises on the tapes because it makes you feel ridiculous when you're puffing out your cheeks and making wheezing sounds as you exhale. Not only that, I hit myself in the head several times with the gymbar during the workout (especially doing the arm exercises). The whole thing was just awkward. Anyway, I slaved through it for a week and lost 7 inches, but absolutely no weight at all. To make matters worse, I looked at the material that came with the program and saw that you have to do the goofy workout video twice a day after the first week!!! That was the point that I pretty much gave up and decided to join the gym again. I honestly thought it was really weird and not worth the time or the money!

My sister gave me this product just to see if I liked it, of course that was almost 5 years ago. I tried it and laughed at the poor woman on the tape when she started doing her breathing. I tried it, my mother ran out of the room laughing at me. Anyway, I couldn't believe how shallow my breaths were before trying the product. I lost inches before fat! I lost about 15 pounds. Now today, I'm starting it back again along with my Weight Watchers to see if I get faster results! A note to others: Do this in the morning on an empty stomach. When I had a glass of water or juice and had something little to eat, I noticed I got nausous. All in all, I wish I look that good at Greer's age in the future!!!

I purchased Body Flex four years ago. I felt silly doing the exercises and did not notice any inch loss. Four years later I purchased the new system. The infomercials are persuasive that I decided to give it another try. I have taken several classes in nutrition and exercise feel that I am educated in such matters but I don't know why so many people swear that this program works. I've read several reviews by reputable medical organization that claim this products does not work but consumers continue to praise their results on the program. I'm going to conduct an experiment and try the program for one month. I will keep you posted.

I Love BodyFlex. After using this program for one week I lost 15" and 5 pounds. I am a person that hates to exercise but with BodyFlex I can't wait to get up each morning to do it. Who would think this is possible sitting down!

I ordered the original Body Flex tapes several years ago and definitely noticed some inches lost. I then "lost" the tapes and got off the program. Here I am 7 years later trying it again. I must admit, this time I am finding the breathing technique a bit more difficult to master. How the heck do you get that vacuum sound to come out your mouth?! Anyway, I'm one week into it this round so I'll keep you posted.
