CorEvolution is a workout machine that works the core muscle groups. According to the manufacturer, you can work all the muscles of the core at the same time: abdominals, hamstrings, glutes, and spinal erector muscles. In fitness, the movement of the CorEvolution is referred to as the "reverse hyerextension." CorEvolution is associated with Evolve Inc. John Cook is the president of CorEvolution. Cook is also an author. Many often misspell the CorEvolution trainer as Core Evolution or Core Revolution. However, the proper spelling is CorEvolution or Cor Evolution.

This product is not good for people who have L-5/S-1 Spondylolysis and Spondylolisthesis. Decompressing the vertebre with these conditions can make your problem worse. I know because I have this condition and it made me worse than ever before. I was really hoping that this would be the answer to my almost 6yr back problem which has left me on disability and an unsure future. Before purchasing the cor-evolution, I sent an e-mail explaining my condition and asked many questions, but no one responded. I also brought the information about Cor-Ev to my Dr. and he gave me the OK to try it, but when he saw what it was doing to me, he told me not to use it again. (I should've known that there was a reason for the non-reply email.) I also had a problem with their billing system. I requested the 30 day trial @ $49.95 and they charge $49.95 plus $499.50! This error threw my bank account and my mind into turmoil( being on a fixed income) which caused insuff. fund fees, which I'm now pursuing to get back. They did refund the $499.50, but not the ISF fees as of yet. So, proceed with caution and ask questions and wait for answers. If no answer..Red Flag.!!!

The pad pushes hard against my belly and it makes me feel like I am going to throw up after only a few reps. With my beer gut, I can't stand this sensation for the recommended five minutes of sustained exercise per day. I thought I would get used to it, but I haven't and it's now too late to send it back. If I had the athletic build of the guy who hawks the machine in the video, it might be different. But I'm an average out of shape guy. So try to find one to try before you buy, for you may not be able to withstand the naseous feeling long enough to benefit at all. And returning it is costly and, unless you have a truck, large SUV or van, it won't fit in your car to haul to the shipper, anyway.

I have been suffering from herniated disc disease and had tried several therapies. Just as I was having some relief through spinal decompression and the doctor suggested that I add some strenghtening exercises, we saw the infomercial on the cor evolution. The first time I tried it, it hurt my back so severely that is set me back on my $2000 spinal decompression therapy to where I can't put on my socks and shoes without help!! They advertise that it is safe for bulging and herniated discs, but it most certainly is not. Not only do I feel like my $2000 therapy was undone by this machine, I had to pay $130 to send it back!! Someone should sue for false advertising!

I broke my back in 1977 and have had to go to therapy every since to keep the muscles in my back in shape so I can keep walking. I have used a version of this machine at my chiropractors office for about the last 20 years. After spending thousands of dollars I came across the Corevolution on TV and immediatly bought one. It came about a week later and found it to be the same thing I have been using with my chiropractor. If I had only found it 20 years ago I would have saved alot of money.

I am 5'3" and positioning is not adjustable for height, so it is awkward to use. My husband who is taller has greater success with it. It is a good machine, it works well for taller people like my husband, but be real careful if you are shorter to avoid injury. The machine is really expensive to return also.

I purchased the corevolution because it appears to work my problem areas, the lower back, the hamstring, and it's safe on the knees. It arrived fast, within one week, it's completely assembled, so all you have to do is unfold it. Then you need to add some weights. The weigh bar is one inch in diameter so it's standard for weight plates you can buy for a few dollars at any sporting goods store. I added 20 lbs for now (two ten plates). And it's just a really comfortable exercise. The top is very well padded with faux black leather and comfortable. Easy to get on with the right foot platform. I have to say, the machine could have been sold for less, but it's well worth it as this is a fantastic exercise for the legs and bag. The pendulum action si great and smooth. I don't know if the height is adjustable, but it fits me and I'm under six feet. I suppose you can adjust your body on the cushioned platform. It's an exercise that is really helpful and after two sets of 20 I'm breathing hard. ENJOY!

My wife and I ordered this free trial via the tv infomercial. We soon learned that my prior back surgery and my wife's height of 5'2" was not a good fit for us. I feared further back injury and my wife found it extremely difficult to use because of her height, despite the claims that shorter people can use the unit. We sent it back at a cost of $125 to us. I expect those reviewing this review will not post it believing it to be a complaint, which is not true. The unit seemed very well made, but it is not for everyone and it can be very expensive to ship back.

I want to return this product. I am very unsatisfied with this product it is made very cheaply. I feel like it will all fall apart when I am on it. Email me info. to return this product.

I had used this machine at my doctors office and it helped my sciattica and back a great deal. I had been paying weekly, because insurance did not cover my injury. I was surprised to see this machine was available on TV. I am retired and like to play golf a couple times a week. I have been able to do that again after only being able to play once a month because of the problem I had with reaggravation. I found the information quite thorough. I followed the enclosed workout with great results. Well made. and there is nothing to put together.

I tried this product and was not satisified. The unit was too costly for what you actually got. The cushion was very thin and it was painful to use. I have had lower back problems and it increased my pain rather than help relieve it. Some of the parts that came with the unit were defective also. Informational DVD was not very helpful either as it did not explain total set-up or what the plastic waterbag weights were for.

I purchased this about a month ago. It arrived quickly and it took less than an hour to get it completely up and assembled. It looked good in the infomercial and I found the product to be soundly constructed and sturdy which is important since you are going to be laying your entire body weight on it's structure. I added about 15 pounds of weight (it comes with a water fillable balloon that can act as weight if you don't already have plates). I followed the small instruction manual for the exercise (it's basically a one trick pony anyway) and I see some results in my abs, it looks like mostly a hamstring and glute device but it has helped my abs and in any case my glutes needed work as well. I didn't need weightloss I just need to increase definition and I doubt any non-aerobic machine can help me lose weight.
