Exerpeutic 975SL All Inclusive Heavy Duty 350 lbs Capacity Inversion Table with Air Soft Ankle Cushions, Surelock and iControl Systems

The first part of this review deals with the assembly instructions. I have assembled many things throughout the years. These instructions are very simple, easy to understand and well put together. The nuts and bolts that you need are nicely divided per step on the manual. Secondly, I want to comment on how this inversion table has helped me in the short amount of time I've had it (one week and three days). You should know that I've had back trouble off and on for many years. The last two times I hurt my back, I was in a lot of pain and went to different chiropractors and doctors. A doctor wanted to put me on strong pills which I refused. One chiropractor fed me a whole line crap about how he could help me and I would need to see him twice a week for 8 weeks at an exorbitant cost. One chiropractor did help me greatly but I kept going to him at an as-needed basis. Although I wasn't taking strong pills from a doctor, I had started taking two Aleve a day for the pain, which sometimes helped and other times I couldn't tell the difference. I was also contemplating surgery. A friend who has an inversion table similar to this one told me to get on their inversion table whenever I needed to until I could get my own. I decided to try it, but since I didn't want to impose, I didn't do it very often. The one they have also has the hand brake/lock (that's I what I call it, it probably has an official name to it.). The advantage of the hand brake/lock is that you don't have to pre-set an angle. When you reach the desired angle, you just lock it into place. Then when you're ready to get upright, you loosen the brake and tilt yourself forward with the use of the side bars. It's that simple. The cushions that hold your feet are very, very soft in comparison to my friend's inversion table, too. That's one of the reasons I bought this particular table. One more things, it's also very, very sturdy. I was in a lot of pain before buying this and when I was putting it together, that's why I called a friend to help me put it together. I've been getting on it twice a day for about 2 to 3 minutes each time to a comfortable inclination. The result has been that I'm feeling better and better each day. I have either very little pain or none at all. I'm also able to do sit-ups when I'm inclined which is helping strengthen my core tremendously. Just keep the following in mind. You don't want to overdo it when you first get at inversion table. You can actually hurt yourself or damage your back if you incline all the way back to a vertical position. You can find a lot of advice on this online and on YouTube. Bottom line, if you have back pain, are taking pain pills, going to chiropractors and doctors you're wasting a lot of your money and you're obtaining no long-lasting results. Do yourself a big favor in your life today and buy yourself a good inversion table like this one. I have no regrets on the cost. My only regret is not buying one of these years ago. You'll be more active. Your mood will change, too

I should have gotten an inversion table long ago, but I'm glad I waited until this model was available. I use it twice a day for the last week and a half, first at a 60 degree angle and now fully inverted. It must be good for stress as well as back problems because it is very relaxing to be inverted. I feel a momentary lower back ache when I return to the upright position, but that's probably a good thing. The back cushion is very comfortable. I don't use the lumbar cushion so my spine hangs as straight and natural as possible. I didn't bother installing the cup holder either. The ankles are pretty comfortable with or without shoes but you'll want to wear some kind of pants or socks to cushion above your ankles. There is a trick to using the ankle ratchet handle. It's a little glitchy so it may take a couple attempts to push the button on the end of the handle and tighten the handle and release the button to get it to tightly lock into position above the ankles. Its much more comfortable on the ankles, especially at a steeper inversion angle, when there is no wiggle room for the legs. It's very solid and totally smooth and trivial to use. Just step into and lock the ankles, lean back to reach your desired inversion angle, then lock it. Unlock and pull yourself up using the large handle bars to change angle or return to upright position. It is a heavy box and it took me a couple of hours to assemble myself. It definitely helps to have two people do the assembly. As mentioned by another reviewer, my back was aching after doing the assembly. The hardest part of assembly was in steps 7 and 8. The only blemish was the scratch I made installing the heal holders in step 7. Be sure to squeeze the heal holder brackets tightly so they slide onto the rear rod, then release to let the lock tooth down into the slot. In step 8 you won't be able to slide the top heal holder over the bottom heal holder until you loosen the ratchet handle by pushing the ratchet handle button. The footbar endcaps were loose and one fell off after using, but they just needed to be hammered in properly with your hand.

Purchased as a gift. This inversion table is very easy to put together. Simple to use and it works. After using it a few days the pinch and pain I felt on my hip stopped. Definitely feel the improvement in my back pain after using it on a regular basis for just 15 minutes. I gradually increased the decline in three days I was hanging completely upside down.

Es la primera tabla de inversión que compro, pasé mucho tiempo para decidirme, ya que me parecía cara, investigué otras mas baratas, pero no me convencían, puedo variar el ángulo de inclinación lo que yo quiera sin necesidad de bajarme y hacer algún cambio. Para sujetar los pies, me parece de lo mejor, muy cómodo.

Lätt installera, perfekt!

Le choix a été difficile. Je m'étais démoli les chevilles sur une table avec fixe cheville classique que m'avait prêté un ami. A éviter. Donc, quelques heures de recherche plus loin, je me suis arrêté à ce modèle. Beaucoup plus cher que prévu, mais si c'est pour avoir peur de monter dessus à cause de la douleur, vaut mieux passer son chemin et essayer d'autres méthodes pour se relaxer le dos. Déjà, paquet reçu en parfait état, ensuite, le montage !! alors là, bluffé par la visibilité des pièces , toutes rangées par étape, sous blister ( voir photos ) et, même un gosse de 5 ans arriverait à assembler le tout. Moins de 30 minutes plus tard, l'engin était monté !!! J'ai quelques clefs à cliquet et ça m'a aidé à aller plus vite. On compte 10 minutes de plus plus pour le déballage et le rangement après. Impression de solidité, de sérieux, tous les trous sont en face, rien à bidouiller, du haut de gamme sans problème. Pour déplacer la table vers son lieu de villégiature, je l'ai plié. et là aussi facile comme tout, elle sera donc facilement rangeable le jour ou j'aurais l'utilité de la pièce autrement. Par contre vaut mieux être 2 pour la déplacer , il y a quand même 32 kg. Ensuite , l'étape suivante, c'était de monter dessus. Pas déçu du tout, les chevilles sont complètement épargnées, aucune douleur, mise en place facile, le frein est extraordinaire et permet d'attraper l'angle qu'on veut ou celui où on se sent le mieux, le matelas est épais, confortable. Que du bonheur !!! Maintenant à voir, au cours de l'utilisation, comment ma table va vieillir, mais je ne m'inquiète pas vraiment. Alors si vous avez un budget qui permet ce genre de table d'inversion, c'est LA table qu'il vous faut . merci Mr Exerpeutic.

Perfect I have been waiting years for this inversion table I have 2 compressed vertebrate I don't go fully inverted but just enough to take the pressure of and it's helps with the pain a lot. It's very sturdy and I'm not the lightest person and yes it's not cheap but you get what you pay for.

Da ich gewichtsmäßig eher im oberen Bereich zu verorten bin, hab ich zur Sicherheit eine hochwertige Lösung gesucht und wurde mit diesem Gerät nicht enttäuscht. Stabil, gute Qualität, einfach aufzubauen und ein tolles Gefühl, wenn man sich dort einhängen kann.
