I saw that cyberfit received and tried the powerbelt with good reviews. I decided to start a new topic rather than continue with the first one, since it was getting rather long.
I received my belt on Friday. I had ordered the option with all four levels, but only levels 1 and 2 arrived as the others are on back-order. This is really okay right now...
I give the belt a thumbs up!!!
When I looked at the belt I thought I would probably end up sending it back. It looked, well goofy. I decided to give it a fair try. I don't have a treadmill so I took to the streets with it. I used level 2. My walkman hooks right on to the belt - a BIG plus. I went for a 30 minute walk (probably about 2.5 mi) and used the belt for a total of 20 minutes, alternating between using and not using. I really enjoyed the workout. I wish I had a heart rate monitor to really quantify the difference between with and without. I could definately feel it in my upper body. I plan to try it again and 'hang on' for the entire distance.
