diva4mgl · 29/10/2005 16:09

daddtghoul,
r u selling yours???

Furball · 29/10/2005 16:39

Blimey - they're a bit pricey, 70 quid?

DaddyGhoul · 29/10/2005 17:07

no! i'm not selling ours, we've only just bought it!

yes, they are quite pricey but they're a proper little piece of kit. quite good quality actually. bloody heavy little thing. i told dw about piffles comment and she's dedicated herself to using it now.

diva4mgl · 29/10/2005 21:40

let us know the result??? will you???
sounds good but will wait for a few comments i think

piffle · 30/10/2005 20:50

honestly a gym membership costs... £35 pcm, it takes 15 mins 3 x a week MAXIMUM it hasn't done massive changes, just whipped in my waist, toned up arms and sent packing my persistent chronic neck pain (flexi was recommended by my physio - best money I spent as I was spending £28 a fortnight on an osteopath!
My posture has improved and I feel more flexible.
Bargain if you think about it, plus if you hate it, whip it on ebay LOL

diva4mgl · 31/10/2005 18:15

thnx piffle,
tbh with 6 months old i have no time for exersize,so i thought it could be good. i have ab toner, bike, and lots more but i havent got time. to ride bike for good result i have to spend at least one hour on the bike every day, but seems all these things out of the window.
i checked on web, says it only needs 15 min 3x a week, which sounds good.

Where did you buy the flexi bar from? I had a look on the website and there are a few retailers listed but I can't seem to find out how to buy one from their websites. Does it come with instructions and a DVD or video demonstrating how to use it effectively (I'd imagine that it would be easy to use it wrongly) if you can't get to a place wher they can teach you how to use it?

diva4mgl · 11/11/2005 18:08

Hi I'm thinking of buying one so I'm wondering how did you get on with your twist and shape? Flabby bum gone? 😀

SmartyPants0 · 24/06/2018 15:37

I know this is an old thread but wanted to know other peoples opinions on the twist and shape or better still an update on Daisy's saggy bum 😀

JinnyJin · 14/02/2021 16:52

Hi, has anyone ever used the Twist and Shape, I'm after a honest review please?
Thank you
