It basically counters my weight with helpful weight of its own to help pull me up, so instead of me trying to heft 210 pounds in the air, I'm only hoisting up 35 - 40. It's not much, but it's something!<br /><br />It's a fun machine <i>now</i>, but I can't lie about crying when I first started using it several years ago. It reminded me of all those damned Presidential Fitness Test things I had t do throughout primary education. When I'd get up and try to do a pull up, and wind up just hanging there. I hated that shit.Faithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13586875268181033533noreply@blogger.com
