At first glance, the Megaformer looks a lot like a medieval torture device (it certainly feels like one, too) but don’t let it put you off giving it a go. The weighted springs, hanging straps, pulleys are there to provide adjustable resistance and a broad range of exercise variations for a high-intensity, low-impact workout. The most brutal part of the workout is moving in a slow pace and holding each pose for at least four counts – the shake is what you’re after, whether you like it or not.
