MOVEMINT Power Twister Chest Resistance Spring Bar Exerciser (20KG to 100KG Options)

nice workout

A very well made Power Twister with dual spring, making it safer and better than most all Power Twisters!!!

Serves as a good warmup / finisher to a upper body workout. Good quality for the price and very simple to use.

Got the 20kg (45lb) because i havent worked out in a very long time. I like it, but after a few days, it seems too easy. I do 4x10 of 3/4 diff exercises. May upgrade after 30 days to a higher weight.

Like the quality and use to exercise

So I own four different sizes: 40K (90lbs); 50KG (110lbs); 60KG (130lbs); and 80KG (175lbs).I am 5'6'' and weigh a lean 138lb. As a former U.S Army Paratrooper, fitness is nothing new to me; you don't need to be big to be strong. That being said, it can be difficult to gauge which one of these to start with. I first bought the 80KG on January 26, 2019, but I couldn't bend that at all and it still remains to be my strength goal. Since I couldn't bend 80KG, I bought the 40KG on January 29, 2019, which seemed too easy for me to bend it full circle, but it was still good for overhead exercises. On February 4, 2019, I bought the 50KG which was perfect and so I stuck with that for about a month. Then I recently received the 60KG, which is excellent for my current level of strength and I am able to bend it full circle for multiple reps. I don't believe that I would be able to bend the 60KG if I hadn't worked up to it since early February. Every once in a while, I pick up the 80KG to test my progress; I'm pleased to say that I can finally make it budge, but it is a Beast and I'm still far away from being able to bend it to any satisfactory degree. It would have been better if there was a 70KG option because I'm fairly confident that I would be able to bend it for 1 to 3 reps. Anyway, I have to warn you that I've experienced pain in my palm, wrists, and especially elbows when I use these things TOO often. It's very gratifying to bend these things, particularly when you're angry about something....but you will definitely increase the likelihood of strained or sprained muscles if you use them every day. For me, the most common injury was the kind that causes a sharp pain in the elbow or forearm whenever you rotate your hand or grip your first; like when turning a door knob or opening a jelly jar. I suppose the technical term is tennis elbow, it's an agonizing injury and it can take several days to recover from it...so you've got to take it easy with resistance bars of this nature and try not to go rage mode with them; I would advise against using them every day because that was my biggest contributing factor to my injuries. They are incredible workout tools if you use them correctly and avoid overworking your arms and hands.

I had one of these when I was in my teens (about 40 years ago) and I really enjoyed it, so I thought I would order a new one, since the one I had somehow got lost when I was in my twenties. This one is nice but needs some improvements.First of all, it's too short. It should be at least 6 to 12 inches longer. Second, the handles have a raised lip at the ends which can be uncomfortable after a few reps, and since the spring is so short you kinda have to hold it at the ends, so if it were longer this would not be as much of an issue. Otherwise this is a decent workout tool.Not to brag, but when I was younger I had great upper body shape and fitness, and I think I owe it all to the spring bar. Just this one tool can help you develop and maintain your pecs, abs, biceps, triceps, trapezius, deltoids, and external obliques. Not bad for a tool that costs less than $30, weighs only a few pounds, has no moving parts, can be carried just about anywhere, and never wears out.I consider this one of the best workout tools ever. I give this particular model only 3 stars because of its shortcomings, both literally and figuratively, but I highly recommend buying one. You won't regret it and you'll get decades of use out of it, which means it will pay for itself many times over.Was this review helpful? If so, please click below. Thanks :)

Well I read the other reviews saying to start with the 20 kg, so I did. It was way too easy for me. I work out but I'm not a beast. I'm 59 now but I really needed a stronger one. So I ordered the 40kg, could barely bend it! Going to try the 30 kg and hopefully work up to the 40kg. I think the 30kg is going to be a good starting point for me and most guys who are fairly strong, the 20 kg would be great for women or young kids starting out. I could bend it all day and not get tired. I'll review the 30kg as soon as I get it.
