Kinesis Personal Gym: a home gym made for your home

This is one of the most radical and stylish looking pieces of fitness equipment I have ever seen. If you have limited space and want something that looks like a piece of furniture, you need to take a look at the Kinesis Personal Gym.

It looks like a wall with a sleek looking pulley system protruding from it. Tucked behind the wall is the technology that enables you to take this pulley system from a piece of art to a fully functional gym.

The cable resistance and computerized pulley system enables exercises to be done with a complete range of motion and you can vary the resistance by simply turning the digital dial in the middle of the wall. If space is an issue and price is not, the Kinesis Personal is the product for you.

Dave Philips is a co-founder of the Titleist Performance Institute, a world-class golf instructor, and the host of the TV show Golf Fitness Academy on the Golf Channel. He is a member of the CNET Blog Network, and is not an employee of CNET.
