I went to their site, watched the IGRIP videos, read all the info. It looks interesting. HOWEVER, there's no mention of a return policy, so I emailed their customer service this evening to ask about it.My email was returned as "Undeliverable".I then emailed their Sales dept., and it too was returned as "Undeliverable".They have no phone number listed.When things like this happen, I can't help but get suspicious and wonder what's going on.RonnTo: bullworkerclub Sent: Thursday, November 17, 2011 6:55 AMSubject: Re: Re: Bullworker in lieu of Weights

Hi ,No chance I'll ever quit using my X5 and Steel Bow. Got my first Bully in 1972 -- a green-handled beauty. The great results I got from it in just a few weeks made me a fitness junkie for life, lol. Love my Bullworkers, but I like some variety too (spice of life!), and always enjoy checking out new stuff. Been doing a lot of kettlebell workouts lately, finishing those up with some Isokinator exercises and yoga on the other days. Will for sure be doing another Bullworker rotation before long. Like everybody else in the group, I'm very anxious to see ' latest innovation. Given what he's done with the Bullworker Classic and Steel Bow, I have no doubt it's

going to be great!Cheers,Ronn To: bullworkerclub Sent: Friday, November 18, 2011 2:46 PM Subject: Re: Bullworker in lieu of Weights

Stick with your bullworker mate and remember effort + bullworker= results!

p.s effective iso holds can be carried out with bow extension or even a rope with spliced loops in each end or save your bucks for the next release from bullworker what ever it is I bet its better than a IGRIP!

I have used it a couple of times already and find that there are a lot of exercises you can adapt from Bullworker experience. I would kind of compare it to the Isokinator, but I think the IGRIP would be more versatile due to the fact that it can be compressed as well as expanded. Although I haven't tried, you could probably use an extension strap to utilize even more exercises with the unit. The unit appears to be very well made and durable. I paid $59.95 for the unit, and $12.95 for the shipping. The unit was shipped priority mail.
