Picture this: Step up onto the OSIM uShape and as your body vibrates along with the machine, you are exercising! The uShape sends strong vibrations to the whole body to cause rapid contractions to all muscles that are moving.

According to OSIM, this helps strengthen muscles and increases circulation to encourage your body for an increased metabolism rate – meaning you burn calories faster and break down fat effectively.

The OSIM uShape is not complicated piece of machinery that requires a trainer to guide you through its use. Combining easy moves that everyone can do like squats, push ups and lunges, on the uShape means a workout includes stretch, spot and strength training. Improve your flexibility and posture; tone up your flabby spots and build up lean muscle for a toned body that will be the envy of all.

Cancel your gym membership and work out with the OSIM uShape in the comfort of your home. Besides saving on time and effort needed to travel to the gym, you can wear anything you want – no one will see you. Catch up on TV dramas while you trim down and after you are done, simply roll the compact exercise machine under the bed or sofa, out of sight.

So don't fret should you succumb to stress from deadlines and polish off a bag of chips in the office. Just step up, shake and shape up on the OSIM uShape!

I don't exercise regularly because I knock off late from work. But thanks to the uShape, I can still work out at home, no matter what time I end work. It’s easy to use and after 30 minutes, I can feel my muscles working really hard and I start perspiring profusing – all while watching my favourite drama series! I actually lost 2.5cm from my waistline after one week of working out on the uShape for 30 minutes every day! The uShape is great for busy people who want to lose weight.

I'm a stay-at-home mother. My kids keep me so busy, I barely have time for myself. After two children and no time to work out, I have flabby arms, a tummy and thunder thighs. But after using the uShape for a week, my arms and thighs are firmer and I’ve actually lost 6cm around my thighs and tummy. Plus, I can work out while still keeping an eye on my kids.

I sit for nine hours in the office every day. I go to the gym at least three times a week but haven’t managed to lose weight. I have a heavy bottom and chunky thighs and running and cycling at the gym have only bulked them up. After using the uShape for a week, I’ve noticed that my thighs and behind have become firmer, without having to put in that much effort in the gym!
