Synergee Core Sliders

Sliders were delivered quickly and work well for my exercise purposes.

The discs were pretty much exactly as described. On one side, there is a velvety pad that makes the discs suitable for very smooth floors (e.g., laminate, wood). The other side is a hard, smooth plastic surface which glides nicely on carpeted areas. If I have any complaints, the discs are a bit too small, but the company cannot be faulted for that because it says the size on the product description.This was our second set of discs because my daughter used the first set on a concrete floor and destroyed the plastic surface in no time. So, do not use these on concrete!

They do their job and work, but due to design my foot slides off of them very easily and I get a little frustrated. Wished these were more dished out to hold foot. Also seems the more “scratched” the smooth surface gets rubbing across carpets the less effective they get. Work, but would probably go with a different style next time.

I was looking to change up my bodyweight exercise routine for something new, interesting, and challenging; and the slider looked to be a cheap and effective exercise tool. This is my second week using the sliders and I like it.One side is for carpets and the other side is for hardwood or tile flooring. I’ve only used my slider on a basketball hardwood floor and it slides easily. When doing sliding exercises with your feet on the slider, you do have to exert some pressure or else the slider will slip away from your feet.YouTube has some excellent slider exercise videos if you don’t know how to use a slider in an exercise program. If you use the smooth side on a carpet, one YouTuber suggested rubbing and wiping off a small amount of Rain-X if you need the slider to glide more smoothly. If you’re afraid the Rain-X might ruin your carpet, the YouTuber recommends going to a carpet store and buying cheap carpet remnants.The Synergee Slider is basically a furniture slider that you can buy at any Home Depot or similar home improvement store. The retail cost of a furniture slider from Home Depot and the Synergee Slider from Amazon is fairly comparable. I went with the Synergee Slider from Amazon because shipping was free so I saved gas money by not going to Home Depot.If you’re really unsure you want to spend the money or not sure sliders will be an effective exercise tool, you can try using paper or plastic plates; but these alternatives will only work on a carpeted surface.

I had knee surgery 30 years ago (anterior cruciate ligament and meniscus) and was told that eventually I would require a total knee replacement. My knee began to bother me to the point that I had to go up and down stairs gingerly one at a time. My choices were to strengthen the muscles around the knee and my butt through physical therapy or go ahead with the surgery. I chose the PT route. One of the exercises included using a core slider disc while working the quads on the affected leg. I wanted to do this exercise at home and purchased the Synergee brand core sliders. The slider allows you to do exercises on carpet or a hard floor. Since I do my exercises on a hardwood floor, I use the padded side down. My knee pain has decreased and I have greatly improved the strength in leg. Hard work at home has paid off and using these Synergee core sliders has been an important aspect in that regard.

I have used these discs daily since receiving them! They work perfect on hard surfaces and I have had no trouble with them slipping out from under me. I will say, when using them on a wood floor, make sure you don't have any stray rocks or anything because if it does catch on that it'll scratch the floor. Using them on the carpet gives a little more resistance, but Hey! It's working you out more, so no complain there. They travel easy, when I workout other places than at home they're easy to just throw in my bag and take them with me. I would absolutely purchase these again- the price is fair and they've been a great tool to use for my workouts. I highly recommend these discs!

I purchased these about 3 weeks ago after I saw someone using these on IG. I was very excited to put them to use in my home gym. I'm big on working my core and these Sliders are the best! I have tile floors and they glide so easy as these disc have double sided versatility for carpet and hardwood floors. What I'm most happy about is in the short time I have used these in my core routine, I have noticed a big difference. I feel I get a wider range of motion and a deeper flexion with each movement of my core routine. I can't wait to use these for my leg & butt routine. Hey, just so you know guys, I'm 55 years young and if I can do these and use them with ease so can any body else. Don't hesitate and deciding if you should buy these.....THEY ARE WORTH THE MONEY!!!! VERY DURABLE!!!!

My husband and I are doing BeachBody's 80 Day Obsession. I purchased sliders and loops through them not realizing it only came with one set of sliders so that's when I went searching for a suitable substitute. I liked the price on these sliders and that they had a decent amount of good reviews. I also liked that they could be used on carpet or hardwood. Upon receiving my black set of Synergee sliders, I was a little disappointed with how small they were compared to the BeachBody ones. To give you an idea of size, I'm 5'3" and can palm the slider in my hand. But I figured it would still be ok and I do have fairly small feet (size 7). However, I was wrong. The sliders are completely flat and small so they slip out from under me more times than they don't. I'll be working hard, pushing myself, and wham one flies out from under me. The BeachBody ones are are curved up a bit and larger. I've found that the BeachBody ones are way better if you're actually working out hard because that curve up provides a bit of resistance against your shoe.

J'ai commencé un nouveau program sortif : 80 dayobsession.Et pour cela il me fallait des sliders, le rose étant ma couleur préférée, j'ai opté pour la marque belus et les bons commentaires.Totalement satisfaite par mon choix, c'est une nouvelle façon de travailler des muscles inconnus pour moi jusqu'alors !Ils glissent bien sur mon parquet et on l'air solide.Je vais voir s'ils vont tenir les 80 jours!Contente de mon choix ;-)I started a new sport program: 80 dayobsession.And for that I needed sliders. Pink being my favorite color, I opted for the brand synergee as I saw some good comments on amazon.Totally satisfied with my choice, it's a new way of working muscles unknown to me until then!They slide well on my floor and they look solid.I will see if they will hold the 80 days!Happy of my choice ;-)

I recently received the Synergee Sliders and have to say that they are a wonderful addition to my workout program. I use these during my ab work and can definitely feel it in my abs, legs, obliques, and arms during and after use. I don't have any issues with my feet sliding off of the discs, however, I did realize you have to use the correct foot placement in order for them to slide correctly. The first time I used them I placed my feet at the edge of the disk instead of closer to the middle which caused the discs to dig into the carpet instead of gliding on the carpet. After I adjusted my foot placement they worked great! I have had these now for about a month and incorporate them into my workouts several times a week! They are a lot of fun to use and much easier than using paper plates!!

LOVE these sliders! You want to talk about a great workout? They're perfect to use on carpet or on the flooring I have in my basement gym. I started using them with one of my at-home workout programs that required them. It's amazing how they can be used. Not just for your legs! Try putting your toes on them when in plan position and pulling them inward like a mountain climber, or get in bridge position and try sliding one leg out at a time when your heel is on it. Talk about a killer hamstring workout! I've also used them in pushup position too and put my hands on them.Long story short, you can really intensify your workouts with these bad boys! The best part is you can take them anywhere so you never have a reason to skip a workout! Even when traveling. :)

Definitely a simple but EFFECTIVE product. I originally had my doubts, but did a simple set of mountain climbers as soon as I received them and instantly felt the additional work in my core that I don't when doing the move with out them. They worked exactly as described and how I would have hoped all while being very affordable. I have had no issues with them scratching my floors or not working as I make sure to not only use the proper side of the disk depending on what surface I am working out on. So long as you can follow the simple directions for use, you won't be disappointed by these. Great product and bonus for the cute color selections. As a heads up, the pink color is almost more of a baby pink as opposed to the darker pink that the photo shows.

I had been considering sliders to add into my core routine and had tested it with some towels before purchasing these. Oh wow what a difference. I really like these! Much better than the towels. They weren't difficult to use or get the hang of, and I felt the the burn so much more. I was very sore the next two days. VERY SORE! Which was what I wanted so I was very happy about that. I can't wait to find out some more exercises rather than the basic ones I've been doing. I know some workout classes incorporate them now, and they are much more versatile than I originally thought. They fit great in my gym bag and the variety of colors is a great way to have some fun. I got the pink and they are super cute and girly! Happy customer!

I was skeptical of these at first as a fitness trainer. But I gave them a shot and found that I like them for myself and some of my advanced students. I don't incorporate them into every routine for a few reasons. 1. Depending on the floor you have in your home or fitness studio/gym, they can really scuff it up. 2. If you don't have enough core strength, don't use these yet. Build up your strength before you add equipment. I prefer my students to perfect their planks before they add sliders so they can hold the position effectively and safely. Once you make progress in your plank, lunge, etc...then go ahead and add these to your exercise routine. 3. Some people don't have great balance or coordination. With some students in my classes, I worry that they would slip or fall and injure themselves because they couldn't maintain their balance, alignment, or a leg or arm flew out from under them.Otherwise, if your fit and healthy and know how to perform your exercises correctly, then go ahead and add these. You'll certainly feel the difference as you increase the effectiveness of bodyweight exercises and range of mobility.

I've tried a number of different gliding discs, and had problems with all of them in that, over the course of exercises involving repetitive movements (which is pretty much everything you'd do with gliding discs), my feet move little by little over the top surface of the disc, eventually slipping off -- for instance, while I'm doing mountain climbers or lunges. And I have this problem with these discs, too. That said, I find these work best for me on a carpet, with the smooth side down, and my feet on the fabric side, which is slightly better than some of the other discs I've tried in terms of how long my feet actually stay on the discs. I'm not sure what kind of design might help mitigate the slipping problem. These discs are, like most others, 7' in diameter. Perhaps a slightly larger disc would provide a larger surface for the foot, but I realize this might cause the two discs to clip each other as the feet move past one another. Perhaps an oval or kidney shape? What might work best, for me at least, is a one-surface disc (i.e., meant for use on carpet only) with a slightly tacky surface on top for the feet, which might help keep the feet in place longer over the course of the exercise.

Awesome turf work out with these sliders and they work well on the black and wood gym floor! They are larger than I expected and I love them!!!! Far superior to other sliders around the gym. I use them for mountain climbers, salamander walks, sundials, push aways, dynamic lunges, and more!! I have incorporated them into my group class as well as my individual training. The size and shape of the Synergee Sliders is perfect for single hands, feet and even both hands or feet depending on the drill. After using other sliders, I prefer these and the bright colors are amazing!! I am glad I invested in these. I get a lot of compliments at the gym and I prefer them over the gym provided equipment. These def put the FUN back in functional.

I ordered these core sliders to help with the Mountain Climber exercise after I sprained my ankle. I thought these would allow me to continue doing the exercise, with less impact on my weak ankle. (I decided this on my own, not based on any actual facts or research. The product does not claim to help with messed up ankles and what not) That being said, they worked perfectly for what I wanted!They glide easily on both my wood floors and my carpet.Also, the sliders really help focus the workout onto my core by helping me keep my form throughout. I really hate doing mountain climbers, but these make them easier without taking away the benefits of the exercise.The sliders also come with a great instructional sheet showing pictures of how to do different exercises using them. That was a nice bonus for me because I like trying new exercises outside my regular routine. I've tried a couple of the exercises shown and they are good, effective moves.The only thing I wish would have also been included on the instruction sheet was more info on the "dual sided-ness"- just which side should be used on wood floors and which side in carpet. I didn't take away a star for this because I do realize that I should have known that on my own. I figured it out pretty quickly. (The hard side will scratch your wood floors. Use the other side down on wood. I know, I shouldn't have needed instructions for that.)Overall these are perfect for what they are supposed to do.

These things really make some exercises and workouts a lot easier to accomplish which makes me way more willing to do them, lol. I debated buying furniture sliders but I'm glad I went with these because they work on both carpet and (fake) wood. I did have a short carpet so I can't speak to how these would work with longer shag but they slide easily and really force me to use my core in the exercises I do with them. I have physical therapy for my hip and do a lot of squats and other things to strengthen that area and I use these to force my muscles to stabilize etc. My roommate uses them for hand-walks and loves how they work. Also they aren't too big (I have 6.5-7 shoe size) but they also worked for my roomie with 9-10 shoe size. Easy to store I definitely appreciate having them in my workout routine these days.

I ordered the Synergee Jet Black Gliding Discs to help me start an at-home workout program. I wanted to enjoy my workouts and not cause pain from high impact movements. These discs are just what I needed to help me get over the beginners hump of starting a workout program. They are solid plastic on one side and a padded material on the other. I use these mostly on a carpeted floor and they make my movements smooth and help me focus on controlled movements. I am able to get a great work on my abs with ease using these discs. I tested them on the hardwood in my kitchen and they slide just as smooth. My suggestion would be to make sure sweep your floors before using. They did not scratch my floor, but they made a scratching sound and I couldn't stand the noise. I will continue to use these discs as they provide a decent workout without the high impact of jumping into positions.

As someone that needs a low-impact workout that actually WORKS, my new pink Synergee Gliding Discs are the answer! I don't have a gym membership, but for the price of these amazing discs, I felt I had nothing to lose! I have a crushed vertebrae in my lower back, as well as a herniated disc in my upper back from an accident; I also needed double hip surgery 3 years ago and will need a full hip replacements at some point in the next few years.Whew! 😥I am definitely not overweight, however, I did have 3 children (my kids are still rather young), so I can definitely use some toning! There are several different exercises you can do with these great little discs. I get a nice workout for my abs, buns, and inner thighs, which is where I feel the need for the most "help". I've used these discs on my hardwood floors, laminate flooring, as well as several low pile area rugs, and they work beautifully on all of the surfaces I've mentioned. I haven't tried the discs on higher pile ("fluffier') carpet or stone/ceramic flooring, but can see how those types of flooring may give a bit more resistance, amounting to a tougher workout. These "wonder discs" most assuredly work out the areas I feel need more toning, while still being gentle on the areas I've had injuries/surgery. The size of these discs as well as being as lightweight as they are make them very convenient for traveling- they barely take up any room at all! I can even stash them in my handbag if I needed to! What other exercise equipment can you say that about? 😄If you're a busy mom (or dad!) like me, or travel a lot for work or pleasure but still want to stay on an exercise regimen, these discs are the answer! They are my "Holy Grail" of exercise equipment. My only regret is not knowing about them/buying them sooner!
