Gymboss Review

 http://www.gymboss.com/

Pros:
  1. Very convenient, has a very strong clip to clip on your clothing.
  2. Rubber coating, so it has grip...i think, actually i don't know what's its for, but i would think its for grip
  3. Easy to use, the instructions are actually written on the clip itself, so if you forget how to use it, BAM! it's right there.
  4. Has volume settings for a Low Beep or High one, even on Vibrate, so you don't disturb the people around you.
  5. Reasonable price and S+H, the device is about 20USD, shipping is around 6 USD(international)? i forget
  6. It's a Stopwatch too
Cons:
  1. Well this is not really a con, but more of a PLUS, It be nice if it's an MPS player too
  2. It's a one button changing number thing, so if you hit that button one more time than you wanted, you have to keeping hitting it to get back to that number.
Conclusion
  1.   I recommend this anyone who's doing HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training), and/or Crossfitters. I use this thing alot, cause im a big fan of timed interval workouts. It's awesome for doing interval sprinting like Tabatas, just clip on your pants/sports-bra etc and let it rip, it does not come off easily, clip is pretty damn strong.

Fat Gripz review

Pros:
  1. Great workout on the grip and forearm
  2. Portable
  3. Versatile, can be used in most barbell and dumbbell exercises (bicep curls, bench press, Shurgs etc)
Cons:
  1. Cannot be attached to equipments such as Kettlebells, TRX, Gymnastic Rings
  2. A bit of a high price tag if you are living in Malaysia, about RM150 per pair, plus shipping adds up to RM190
Other details:
  1. charges in Euro on their website
  2. shipping period is about 1 month using Royal Mail, for Malaysia that is
 Conclusion:
  1. Overall i'm happy with this purchase even with the high price. Great if you're looking for some change in your workouts, and if you want to get them Popeye strong forearms. I would recommend to get a few friends to order this with you so can save on the shipping. I used this on my deadlift and i can really feel a difference, using muscle on the forearm i never used before.
