Stealth Core Deluxe Trainer - Turn Fitness Into a Fun Game - Get Strong Sexy Abs and Lean Core Playing Games On Your Phone; Free iOS/Android App; 4 Free Mobile Games Included; Dynamic Abs & Core Training; Only 3 Minutes a Day

I am not an excercise enthusiast. I have always had a very weak core despite an athletic background through college. At 40, I'm trying to improve myself physically just a little, and I'm doing it with simple things I can do at home. To be clear, a lot of my effort started with losing weight nutritionally. So I'm at a fairly skinny but far from scrawny baseline at 5'9" 165ish. I bought this Stealth because I liked the idea - engaging your core by forcing yourself to be stable while planking. And I looked at cheaper versions and decided I should go with the quality brand with established, functional games to use. Stealth seems to have the best concept design for creating multi-directional instability that forces your core to keep you in place. If you're not picky about games, you don't have to pay a thing for the basic ones, and they're plenty engaging to keep you going for a couple minutes. I've started at 2 minutes a day - 2 minutes! I've even missed days here and there, yet in 3 weeks (I'm up to 3 minutes a day now) I can see some shape in my abdominal area that I have NEVER seen before. You can easily tell that it engages your abs from top to bottom. In my prior experience with traditional situps or crunches, my upper abs would do all the work, and I could never engage the lower ones. Not the case with this AT ALL. You can feel the fatigue from ribs to waist. Even when I used to be in good shape years ago and I could run forever, I never had any semblance of lines like I'm starting to see after 3 weeks of 2-3 minutes a day. Maybe this won't do as much for you if you're already a workout fiend, but if you want to start from scratch or limited core strength or stability, this is a great option if you're willing to spend $100 one time. The portability of this particular model plus a sale is why I bought it as opposed to the normal one that doesn't disassemble. It is perfectly stable so far with very clear instructions on how to assemble it appropriately.

This plank board is nice, is effective and works well. But the price is ridiculous. $100 for this is really really really ridiculous. In terms of electronics, do you know what you can get for $100? Some pretty advanced stuff. Or a lot of stuff. This is just some molded plastic. And if you use the app they want you to set up an account (mandatory to disclose personal information) plus pay for additional game options. This is highway robbery and I deducted two stars because of the insanity of it all.I am a lifelong fitness freak and found the plank board rather challenging at first. I am sure it will get easier as I adapt to using it but it was more challenging than I expected, and this is a good thing. The games were also good and not just a gimmick. Many reviewers complained about technical issues with the app but I didn't have any. However, as I mentioned, I did not love that I was required to create an account and provide personal information.It's hard for me to say whether or not I would recommend this. To me, there is no way on earth this is worth $100 and I would not recommend paying that much to anyone. But if you have cash to burn, want a new way to train your core, and will use it enough to get your money's worth, then go for it.When deciding on buying something I greatly depend on reviews from others, so I hope this helps you!

Another win for Stealth Products. I debated getting it because I have the Deluxe model, but I am so glad I did. As advertised, it glides so smoothly, it's literally frictionless at the pivot point/technosphere. IMO, the large platforms could be better for someone that is starting to train because the friction felt at the pivot point adds stability. Of course, beginners can also use it, but having a stronger core definitely helps to control your movements. If you're on the fence, just get it. If you make the commitment to use it, it works. It makes the workout (the boring planks) fun, and it's a such a great overall body exercise.

I absolutely love the new StealthGO!! Sitting down at a desk for long hours has negatively affected my core strength and posture. Planks are one of the simplest & most effective exercises you can do to strengthen the Abdominal, Back & Shoulder muscle groups. After planking, tilting and twisting on the StealthGo you can feel all of your muscles firing. The games are fun & engaging to the point you totally forget that you are exercising. Please make more exercises this fun!

I got this about a month ago, and it’s amazing and it helps me with my daily exercises. Especially when I travel. The only problem I’ve run into recently is the little tab on the back that keeps the sides from detaching, has started to slip out during my workout. Needs a better fastener. I’ve managed to wedge it in with a bit of paper.Over all great buy and the free games are good.

When I try to activate the app, it checked for the updates ad infinitum :( I have tested the app on 5 different devices (3 Samsungs, one Huawei and one Alcatel) in four different locations, and the same problem is on all of them. So it is definitely a bug in the app. After over three weeks, they still didn't fix it. I am so disapponited.Of course you can still use the board without the app, but part of the appeal was that you play games while exercising.If they fix the bug, I'll let you know.EDIT: They fixed the bug :) It is so much fun doing the exercises :)

Make working out fun. It definitely works. You can feel you muscles engaging. Push yourself at the first go, the second and subsequent times you get on, your muscles are weaken so you dont stay on as long. Kids like using it too with the app as they consider it a game.

I can enjoy everyday with my family.
