Aeroski Power Pro Home Fitness – Simulator Exercise Machine with Ski Poles, VR Goggles, and Fitness App to Provide Low Impact, Plyometric, Total-Body Workouts

At first, it’s kind if difficult and unsteady (not for clumsy people:-). Has to hang on the rail for a dear life;-)After 5th workout I am able to workout without hands. I strengthtened my thighs and lateral abdominal muscles amazingly fast! Everything was also hurting me at first, knees, lower back and hips, but turned out it was just weak muscles. Now its perfect. I’m kind of lazy to do other workouts, but this one is a lot of fun and I look forward to next one. I have herniated discs and some exercises bothers my back, but this one does not. I waa skeptical to buy, since it’s kind of new and there are not too many reviews, but now I am super happy about the purchase and it’s great price and easy device that builds muscles really fast. It’s light enough to carry around the house. Just buy a rubber matt to protect your carpet or floor, it stains a little. My matt is 36×72 inches.

1. I love this Aeroski. It doesn’t bother my knees and gives me a pretty good workout.
So, Mike, why are you only giving it 3 stars.
2. Aeroski is apparently having an issue with the virtual fit app for Android. So can’t use the virtual goggles. Luckily that wasn’t the main reason I bought it.
3. I could have gotten this cheaper directly from Aeroski. My fault that I didn’t do more homework but I usually associate Amazon for pricing equal or less than I can get elsewhere. So I was surprised when I went on the Aeroski site for the virtual app to see a significantly lower price.
This vendor delivered promptly and item as described (except for the virtual app) so if you are an “Amazon only” person I do recommend this vendor for this product.

Removed a star for assembly, minimal instructions which is fine but they need better diagrams of the piece that you have to take off during the assembly. I’ve seen questions about shoe size for the area you place your feet, my husband wears a 12-13 EEE shoe and his foot with tennis shoes fits fine. I like that you can semi customize your workout on the app, they have a large selection of workouts to choose from plus each week they have live workouts. Due to health issues I have been sedentary for the last 3 years, now that I am able to resume my workouts I highly recommend the Aeroski. It is highly versatile, great for beginners and experts with the variations of their workouts, the bar or ski poles or nothing, hand weights,etc. My Granddaughter who is very active got a great workout too. I bought this because I like the muscle groups it uses in your legs, as a former bodybuilder I know it’s hard to find one machine that works inner thighs/glutes /hamstrings and quads. I highly recommend for all age groups, and activity levels- of course here comes the disclaimer, check with your physician. I was not paid for my review.

This Aeroski machine has been in my Facebook feed and I was curious enough to want to try. I ordered from Amazon instead of Aeroski for a few reasons even though the product cost a little less at Aeroski’s website. Amazon had a 90 day return window while Aeroski only allowed 30. To return it to Aeroski, customer pays shipping. Since I was not sure I would like the machine, I didn’t want to commit 100% before being able to try it.

I got the Aeroski and got it out of the box. I was a little overwhelmed at the assembly – but that is because putting things together is not something I’m good at. I don’t even build with Lego! Even so, I followed the directions and got it together without any trouble. I won’t say the directions were excellent – the diagrams were a bit small and hard to make out but the instructions were clear and the screws, nuts, etc. were clearly labeled.

The first time stepping on the Aeroski felt very unstable/unsteady. The base (where you step, put your feet) moves with any motion. That takes a little getting used to.

There are 3 modes you can choose from. Hands free, ski poles, or stable bar. Start with the stable bar and follow the directions which have you screw it in to the base! It gives you something to hold on to while you are climbing on, and to hold/steady yourself while you first start using the Aeroski. Then if and when you feel ready, try skiing without gripping the bar but hovering your hands over it in case you need it. Then try the ski poles or hands free. Otherwise you’re likely to fall off.

It took me 5-6 ‘sessions’ with the stable bar before I felt ready to do more. Now that I’m using the ski poles, I feel like I’m getting a better workout. I can feel it in my thigh and calf muscles.

The machine itself does not take up much space. About 4 feet by 2 feet floor space. And without the poles/stable bar (which detach easily) it is about 20 inches high. The foot base however can be removed very quickly, easily and then the base itself would be low enough to slide under most beds for storage. The machine is lightweight – under 50 pounds including all parts. There is some noise when in use from the parts moving, but I would not call it loud. It might be quieter than my regular treadmill actually.

My AEroski came with a VR headset but I have not tried it out.

I have thrown out the box it came in – since I have decided that I’m keeping the Aeroski. My primary other cardio is walking, either outside or on a treadmill, and I like the variety this gives me.
