Introducing the Bean Elite - The Newest Total Body Workout

Perhaps you have seen the half hour infomercial dedicated to The Bean. If not, this article will provide you with everything you could possibly want to know about this product. My wife and I were flipping through some channels when we spotted some people working out with this device. We decided to keep it tuned in, because it looked like something that we could do together. Plus, we have both been looking for ways to work out and lose weight without spending a lot of money on diets and fitness centers. This looked like a winner, so we decided to make the call. We ordered The Bean Elite, which cost us a mere $89.95. Unfortunately, the order was delayed due to a severe snowstorm that engulfed most of the midwest. It took two weeks for delivery.

It came packaged in a smaller package, which really surprised me. It looked much larger on the television. I quickly tore the package open, inspecting its contents. Everyone knows you should always make sure everything is accounted for, especially when you consider the cost of the product. The Bean Elite was deflated and wrapped in a little plastic bag. Actually, the rest of the package was larger than The Bean itself. I tore open the instructions. The package contained a specially made pump, which was easy to attach and quickly inflated The Bean to its full size. It took less than five minutes for The Bean to inflate. The Bean is made of high-grade 20 gauge P.V.C. puncture resistant vinyl, so you can rest assured that this product is difficult to puncture. The shape of The Bean is contoured to the shape of your back and neck, which makes working out a more pleasant experience.

The Bean is, in fact, so comfortable that I actually like to sit on it while I am watching tv. However, the thing I like most about The Bean is that I love tipping on chairs and rocking. That means that your body is constantly in motion, which is fantastic for people that want to lose weight and tone their bodies. I do not even realize when I am working out. How do you know if you are working out correctly?

The Bean is packaged along with two DVD's, 7 Minute Power Abs and Belly Busting Super Abs. They provide you with valuable information, such as a dieting manifest and instructions to help you determine if this is the right tool for you. The first DVD, 7 Minute Power Abs and Total Body Bean Blaster also includes three additional workouts. A Lower Body Workout, Pilates Workout, and Back Strengthening and Relief workout.

-The 7 Minute Power Abs focuses on reducing your waistline.
-The Total Body Bean Blaster is a workout video designed to condition your entire body.
-The Lower Body Workout specializes in burning calories to increase your metabolism.
-The Pilates Workout does exactly what it says it does, working with Pilates.
-The Back Strengthening and Relief Workout is an in-depth program for soothing and strengthening your back.

The second DVD, Belly Busting Super Abs includes another workout program, Calorie Crunching and Lower Body Bean Workout.

-The Belly Busting Super Abs is a program designed for everyone. This is ideal for people that are just getting started with The Bean.
-The Calorie Crunching and Lower Body Bean Workout is an advanced workout program featuring The Flex 10.
(My wife and I did not purchase The Flex 10, because we did not want to spend anything extra, at this time.)

*The included DVD's provide every workout available to The Bean. However, the one negative thing I have to say about our purchase is that there is no workout manual included. So if you do not have a DVD player, you will not know how to appropriately use The Bean.

My wife and I work out with the 7 Minute Power Abs and I have to warn you that you will feel the burn. I really love the Back Strengthening and Relief Workout, as well. You will be amazed how good your back feels after. This is the first time I have ever enjoyed working out, so I highly recommend this product. I know many of us do not like working out, because it just feels like too much work. This is a revolutionary new concept and brings the fun back into working out.

The Bean is extremely easy to store, if you want to. Personally, I love to sit on it while I am watching TV or reading a book, that is exactly how comfortable The Bean is. However, if you do want to store it away, just deflate and place in a closet. It is that simple.
