QVC Says Put Down the Remote and Exercise

Written by Oprah Fangirl on Thursday, January 29th, 2009 in Infomercials.

QVC LogoThe Big Q wants you to put down that remote control and start getting fit …right after you pull out your credit card and call the number on the screen, of course.

I was watching QVC this morning and apparently they have a crush on Gaiam products this week. Is it just me, or has QVC been on a fitness kick lately? I’ve seen P90X Workout DVDs, Hip Hop Abs, Tony Horton’s 10-Minute WOrkout, and a series of weird and wacky fitness gadgets like the Leg Magic and the Bean Supreme. But not all of the products they’re trying to sell you are wacky gadgets. Like Px90, some of their Gaiam products are actually worth checking out.

In case you missed it

Among those being featured on the program are:

Gayle King Loves the FIRM Wave

Written by Oprah Fangirl on Friday, January 23rd, 2009 in Oprah.

The FIRM WaveI just listened to my first XM / SIRIUS radio show on Oprah and Friends this morning. It was Gayle King talking with Annie Lee of The FIRM about their fitness products. One of them is a fun-looking new gizmo they have called The FIRM Wave.

Apparently Gayle loves this thing. Has anyone else tried it? I have a FIRM workout DVD from years back that I love and still use quite often.

If you missed Gayle’s talk with fitness instructor Annie Lee don’t worry. You can catch it again on XM / SIRIUS radio today at 2pm and again at 8pm or you can listen to it on Oprah’s website any time – Click Here to listen.

New GT Xpress but Where is the Infomercial?

Xpress Redi Set Go Grill

Xpress Redi Set Go Grill

As a proud owner of a GT Xpress, I was emailed by the company today letting me know they have a new product out called the Ready Set Go cooker.

I haven’t seen any commercials for this yet though so I was wondering if the previous GT Xpress owners were a test market for a new product?

If so – send me one for FREE and I’ll test it all to heck and back for you!

Update 1: Thanks to the folks over at Gonzo Gadgets for posting a review of the GT Xpress Readi Set Go grill. And thanks for stopping by to tell us about it!

UPDATE 2: I did manage to find the commercial on YouTube, which probably means it’s playing on television somehwere… maybe I’m just not staying up late enough ;-P
