Problem Solved.
I committed to do 80 Day Obsession by Beachbody buy my order was delayed three weeks. You need these immediately, so I ordered them and prayed they didn't suck. They didn't suck. They're actually better than the BB ones, IMO. They slide perfectly in my carpet and hardwood floors (I workout in my living room or family room.) Your feet (in shoes) don't slide off the disks. I am pleased and would buy again.(PS I'm a plus sized gal, my weight did not impede them from sliding which I wondered about. So, my fluffy gals, this product IS for you too!)

Effective but not for everyone!
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.

My abs hurt :P
I would hands down buy these again! They work great on both carpet (even my longer-ish carpet) and my hard wood floors. They're exactly as described, the perfect size, and absolutely perfect for the 80 day obsession. Nothing negative to say (except that my abs are killing me!)

My "Must-Have" Exercise Equipment!
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!

Great product to intensify any workout!
Wow! I purchased two sets of these sliders (one in pink, the other in black) for my wife and I as we’re starting 80 Day Obsession. Whether you’re doing this workout or another of your own, these work great. They are holding up very well and really work your body, especially on core exercises. They’re a good size. They fit my wife’s smaller foot and my larger one. They aren’t too big for her or small for me. For those looking to get in shape, these really help in adding balance to exercises and they intensify other workout moves very well. I rate a perfect 5/5.Thank you for reading and rating my review!

As good a disc as any other I've tried, at a reasonable price
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.

Wife Loved these, me too :)
I got these for my wife when she started the 80 Day Obsession workout.They came quickly and are exactly what she was looking for, especially the pink.After seeing her use them a few days, I decided to give them a try to see just how sturdy they were.I must say, these things are great! I used them in my gym on the short carpet floor and they slid nicely with my 180 lbs on them.Then I flipped them over and tried them on hardwood floor, still slid along well. I was impressed.SO after seeing the benefits and ease of use, I'm ordering a set for myself in a less feminine color.
