On the Right "Trac"

Holy freakin' crap. I just had my first workout using the HumanSport strength training machines by Star Trac. How can I describe how this system works? It feels like I'm using dumbbells/kettlebells but with the negative-resistance benefits associated with typical weight machines. The weights are pulled or pushed via non-linear, multi-lateral "tracks" which reminded me of training with gymnastic rings or resistance bands. Because of each machine's versatility, I was able to quickly maneuver from exercises to exercise and completed my once 90-minute workout in about half the time. My muscles still feel pumped nearly three hours post-workout! A more in-depth review is in the works. Can't wait? You can learn more on their website.
