Total Bar Upper Body Exercise Bar

I purchased the Fitryo Total Bar a couple months ago and have used it regularly since. While I was introduced to this type of equipment through physical therapy for a rotator cuff injury, I use the Total Bar to combat the sedentary nature of my job. I have a desk job so I spend the better part of my day sitting in front of a computer monitor. While I generally walk or run during my lunch break, I need something for the hours before and after lunch, and the Total Bar fits the bill nicely. I set a sixty minute timer on my PC, when it goes off I hop up and do a minute each of at least three exercises. I find this has helped me keep a rather steady energy level through the day, I don't feel as stressed at the end of the day, and of course the health benefits are a given. The Total Bar is very well constructed with a comfortable rubber grip and rubber weights at each end of the bar. In use the Total Bar is easily comparable to a Body Blade if not better. If I were forced to nitpick, it would be that the bag/case that came with my Total Bar is a touch small. It is a chore to get the Total Bar into and when closed it doesn't completely encase the bar. If the bag were about 1/2" bigger in both length and diameter, it would be perfect. I only use the bag when toting the bar back and forth from work, so it's not a big deal. In short: A very well made, effective tool, easily comparable to higher cost devices. I would (and most likely will) buy again.
