XPodz Reviewed in LATimes

Rodger Thomason's fitness product received a positive review in the Los Angeles Times:

Workout in a bag

Rocket Innovations Xpodz: Two dome-shaped hand pods, accessories and a slider mat that provide an endless supply of Pilates- and yoga-like exercises.

Likes: Simple, effective and compact design that gives you a legitimate living-room strength and aerobic workout by accentuating the challenge of standard yoga and other exercise positions like downward dog and push-ups. The spherical shape also eliminates carpal tunnel, the original goal of Rodger Thomason, who had push-up-induced wrist problems. Snap-on instability cones ramp up the difficulty. Hand and foot slider pads make the number of potential exercises endless — reverse-plank pull-ins, ab roll-outs, mountain climbers, V-ups, one-foot-side slides, etc. An excellent 30-minute workout DVD starts off with a good warm-up and covers a wide range of exercises. A plastic pouch holds the Xpodz, sliders and instability pods.

Dislikes: None

Price: $39.95 (for the base Podz). $139.95 (entire system, including mat). http://www.xpodz.com
