"The yogacise bench delivers on its promises. It is well made, with quality materials and is very sturdy. That makes the user confident that they will not fall and thick padding makes it very comfortable. It is easy to get the hang of and very effective. It's a far better value than anything else that I've seen designed for the same purpose. Another really nice perk is that it folds nice and flat and can easily stow away in my storage bed. However, I like to use it so much that I never flatten it and put it away."

"I like this piece of equipment! It's great for inversions that create no stress on the neck or upper back. Very easy to use and takes very little space."

prop I will have forever Date: June 6, 2009
"I am a regular person, with not alot of time to be as active as I would like to be. Getting out to the gym is proving to be more and more dfficult as my life progressively gets busier and busier. I guess that makes me like everyone else.
What exercises I do I do at home. So a piece of equipment that is reliable & easy to use is very important to me.

I have been doing headstands up against the wall for years because I was never able to find a piece of equipment that I felt secure enough hoisting myself up onto. As I got older I needed something between me and the floor and spent quite some time researching lifts that were well made and portable. With limited space the equipment had to be easy to use & easy to store. This Yogacise Bodylift was worth the long search. It's design lets me use it as a meditation stand, as well as a multi weight exercise stand. It is easy to fold & unfold and comes with an instructional DVD.

I feel very secure with its design. At 5'2" & 170lbs I need alot of support & thick shoulder pads or the headstand is just painful. I have remained upside down for over 7 minutes and felt like I could have remained longer. I am on this EVERYDAY and have continued to feel that this meets my every need. This is a keeper!!!

"Have been looking for a sturdy, portable, shoulderstand chair that would support rigorous use. This is well made, stable, aesthetically pleasing, easy to carry, and more economical than most products I have found online. Great for inversions and core work."

Great upper body workout Date: December 10, 2008
"Just received it today! I've been looking for equipment that allows the use of body weight as resistance, in the spirit of Functional Training. This does the trick! This 2nd-edition Yogacize Body Lift is sturdy and stable (even in the middle of the room without a back wall for support) while performing controlled hip flexions and abductions while inverted. I am 5'5" and the shoulder cushion is comfortable with no complaints from me. As advertised, the handles also work well for tricep dips. Bonus: good alternative study break instead of a nap or a snack when I'm tired or have the munchies -- the blood goes to the brain where I need it most!"
