Total Gym 1100, 1500, 1700

The Total Gym is an all-in-one home exercise machine that allows its user to isolate each of the body's muscle groups. The basis behind the Total Gym is resistance training on an incline/decline bench. You may have seen the infomercial featuring Chuck Norris and Christie Brinkley.

Overall, the Total Gym is a great gym if you want a quick, cheap, no fuss workout. The Total Gym has plenty to offer and for the price, even if you only use it for a year before upgrading, it is cheaper and more convenient than a gym membership.
The total gym user cannot be taller than 6' or heavier than 250lbs. At 5'10" you're getting a bit tall for some of the lying exercises. The Total Gym 1500, like the 1000 and the 2000 models uses a lightweight steel frame. It is this and a few other features that set the lower end of the Total Gym series apart from the much more expensive upper end. The equipment is made up of a lightweight steel frame, a 13" wide x 40" in length glide board, steel cables with handles, leg cuffs and a manual. It weighs about 85lbs.
With the Total Gym you can perform a lot of different exercises in a short time and train your whole body. It is cheap, quiet and no assembly is required.
There are several different machines to choose from. There is Total Gym model 1000, 1500, 2000, 3000. The machines start at around $250 and can cost over $1000 with the upgrades. There are also videos.
Its unique pulley and glide system, which would allow me to use your own body weight as resistance against the consistent pull of gravity.
Home exercise machines are good because they are convenient and perhaps less expensive in the long-term if you don't mind paying $1000 upfront. You avoid the commute to a health club and the potential embarrassment of working out in front of others when you are overweight and out of shape.
Add a basic food program or one of the simple and inexpensive online programs for structure and support, and you have the best possible option for success.
