All three of them are totally unnecessary.

If you really want to gift 1 of those 3 , i would go for the first one. Before i started working out in the gym, i had a similiar device called the perfect pushup. Its harder than normal pushup because u have to lower yourself even more and most importantly its doesnt put any stress on your wrist. I still use it occasionally when i dont have time to go to the gym. Can really feel the difference compared with regular pushups but nothings beat DB bench press or barbell bench press.

Agreed that they are unnecessary.

But if u would really want to dump your money somewhere,I will go for the first choice.

Abs roller is useless,u easily get any good alternative.
And the stepper,wtf?!

Normally we just pushups wif hand,wif that piece of thing,probably safer and more canggih.

I assume these cost u between 70 to 100 plus... get a stretch cord or pull up bar.Definitely better.Or u wan spend on supplements?Then next time u visit him,u can hav it too. XD

Sorry Hoxy, don't think he got the time to let you try it out. But i will ask him about the product and tell u about it ok? Sorry ya, and thanks again for the opinions.
