New on the market the Ab Rocket is a perfect piece of equipment for the home user as it means you can tone and shape your abs and waistline without spending a fortune on expensive health club membership or large pieces of home equipment that cannot be easily stored.
Going to the gym can easily cost you hundreds of dollars a month. And even when you get there you may not know what to do or what equipment is best for you. Unless you are prepared to pay extra for a lesson with a Personal Trainer, you can end up wandering vaguely around the mind-boggling array of scary-looking equipment, wondering what to use to get the results you want.
The Ab Rocket on the other hand will cost you less than a single months membership and comes complete with an instructional DVD with both beginner and advanced workouts on it. So even if you’ve never exercised your abs before, you will be able to now. The Ab Rocket gets you off the floor and into a position where it is easy to target your abdominal muscles without hurting your back, as the padded rollers on the Ab Rocket gently support your back and neck while you perform your ab crunch. This does not mean the Ab Rocket does your exercises for you! Variable levels of resistance means that whatever your fitness level you can get an excellent core workout.
Up until now stomach exercises like crunches and sit-ups have been done on the floor with the client lying down. In this position, the abdominals have very little leverage and unless they are strong to start with, performing an ab crunch will merely put strain on the back and neck muscles. You would not believe how many clients I see every day trying to do ab crunches, pop-eyed and red in the face, with their teeth clenched and their neck muscles standing out. They press their feet into the floor and turn purple, as they also forget to breathe. The only muscles not being worked just happen to be – you’ve guessed it – the abdominal muscles!
With the Ab Rocket, you need never do floor crunches again! The Ab Rocket puts you in a perfect position to work your abdominals as hard as you want without straining the back and neck. The innovative padded rollers assist you in to a position where you can use your abdominals to crunch upright. This means no pulling on the neck and shoulders, which means the whole emphasis of the exercise goes into the stomach area – which is where it should be! So for those toned flat abs that everyone will admire, get the great Ab Rocket!
