KING ATHLETIC(Ab Roller) - Ab Roller Wheel :: Abs Carver for Abdominal & Stomach Exercise Training :

I do not go in for exercise gadgets normally. I work out the old fashion way, i.e. sports, weights, and outdoor activities. However, I am in my fifties now, I do not do much sporting anymore, so my life has become more sedentary. While I do bike everyday and get some exercise from working on my farm, my upper body and my lower body were adequate it, however I needed something to re-tone my abdominal muscles. While I have always used sit ups to tone up my abs in the past, they are quite boring and uncomfortable for my back. So when I researched the best way to exercise the core, I found out about the ab wheel. I decided on this one because I wanted rubber wheels, and I did not want to pay a lot for something that I may not like. After the first use of about 10 reps, I could feel how good it was at targeting all of the abs without causing pain to my back, shoulder or wrists (I do have an issue with my right shoulder and my right wrist, however this item does not seem to bother either.) I am surprised how happy I am with this purchase, and enjoy using the ab wheel in different exercises to focus more on the obliques or the abs in different sets of reps. So to anyone unsure about whether this type of item will be of any actual use, I would say if you want a stronger core, tighter abs and obliques, then do yourself a favor and try it out. As to whether this particular brand is right for you, I do not know. I can only say that I am very happy with it. I did not expect a tank, I am not going to slap a car on top of it. How sturdy does it need to be? It is what it is. plastic wheels with rubber tires, a rod, spacer, and a couple of slip on handles (very easy to assemble and take apart.) It is perfect for my needs. I am about 145 pounds and it feels very secure. Some reviewers think that the spacing between the wheels is to narrow. I think it is absolutely fine. It feels very secure and not wobbly at all. A wider spacing might in fact make the curving exercises more awkward.

Absolutely brilliant, must have piece of kit for anyone wanting to tone up their abs, and increase their core strength. I have only used this for 2 days and can already feel that my muscles have been tested to the full. Not only my abs but my lower back and arms too. Very simple to put together (only taking 30 seconds) and very robust and well made. Absolute bargain at the price. Very speedy delivery too, would recommend to anyone.

Lieferung erfolgte schnell. Die 6 Teile waren schnell zusammengebaut. Wackelt nix und tut, was er soll. Keine schwarzen Streifen durch die Rollen. Auch wenn der Bauchtrainer selbsterklärend aussieht, empfehle ich vor der ersten Benutzung einige Videos bei youtube anzuschauen (Tipp: nach Ab (=abdomen) wheel suchen), um zu erfahren, wie man es NICHT machen soll. Man kann die Übungen prima täglich einbauen und merkt auch ordentlich die beanspruchten Muskeln. Ob sich das Sixpack ergibt, werde ich dann noch sehen...

I really like it, very good material . Just the delivery took a really long time

Ich treibe seit sehr vielen Jahren Sport und kann dieses Trainingsgerät sehr empfehlen. Es ist sehr stabil und in guter Qualität.Folgende wichtige Tipps solltet Ihr dennoch beachten! Ordentlich warm machen, sich über die Übungsausführung gut Informieren und nicht übertreiben. Dann bleibt der Rücken und die Muskulatur auch in Takt.Viel Spaß beim trainieren.LG Steffen
