Shake Weight for Men (review)

The Shake Weight For Men is the male version of the internationally successful Shake Weight fitness product. You've probably had a chance to see the infomercial for the product and may be intrigued as to what it is and how it works.

Well, the Shake Weight For Men is basically the same product as the original version but it's been redesigned for males.

The main difference is the weight of the product. This is a 5 lbs product while the original version was only half that.

The fitness claims of the product are simple: workout with it for just minutes a day and you will build size, muscle definition, and strength in your biceps, triceps, chest, and shoulders.

You use the Shake Weight For Men by holding it in one hand or both and shaking it fast. The spring in the product causes the weights at either end to vibrate forwards and backwards. This sends a vibration through your muscles and causes them to contract rapidly up to 240 times per minute (according to the official site). As you can't get as many contractions with a regular workout, the suggestion is that this product is more effective.

However, you should note that the range of contraction with the Shake Weight is pretty limited as you're only making very small movements by shaking the weight back and forth.

A new study which was done by a fitness simulation company based in California did show that the Shake Weight For Men outperformed regular dumbbell exercises in terms of total energy consumption and other criteria.

However, it is unclear whether this test proves that you will achieve great muscle growth, more definition, and greater strength by working out with the Shake Weight than by doing traditional strength exercises.

The good thing about the product is that it comes with a solid refund offer that also includes shipping costs. This is impressive because it allowes you to try the product out and, if you're not satisfied with it, send it back for a full refund. They even pay for the shipping back. This is impressive.

There is still some doubt about the effectiveness of this product though it seems not to be as useless as some people have made it out to be when it was first introduced on the market.

However, I recommend to not neglect traditional workouts even if you do choose to use this product as well.
