It is the final furlong, and both riders are urging on their horses as hard as possible in order to obtain victory in this year's Melbourne Cup - will it be Osim's iGallop or will Hammacher's Joba Core Muscle Trainer capture top position? Back to reality, the latter is a low-impact mechanical exerciser that targets specific muscle groups without causing any pressure or stress on joints. Each exercise routine takes around 20 minutes to complete as the saddle tilts back and forth, left and right in pre-programmed sequences. Choose from three exercise patterns and nine different speeds for your horse-riding pleasure. At $1,999, it costs nearly four times as much as the iGallop. Maybe the foot straps cost an additional grand to install during manufacturing.
