 This is NOT the way to develop your abs...or reduce your midsection! September 5, 2010
Josh Mandel (Albany, NY United States)
You know there's something wrong with an ab workout when it promises you a "gentle massage" as you exercise.
First of all, don't work your abs -- or your obliques -- if you're trying to REDUCE the size of your waist, or get rid of love handles. You can't spot-reduce fat deposits in those locations (or anywhere in the body; when you lose fat, you lose it from all over the body). Moreover, exercising the abs and obliques will often build mass, which pushes any surrounding fat depositsOUT, and actually increasing the size of your waist.
Second, it's crucial to learn how the ab muscles work. Once you understand the involvement of the psoas (and you're spinning your wheels if you haven't learned this), you can work your abs much more efficiently, and with much cheaper equipment -- or none at all. Spend a few bucks to get this terrific, although out-of-print book, "Legendary Abs: Gold Edition": http://www.amazon.com/Legendary-Abs-Health-Life-Staff/dp/0944831400/ref=tmm_pap_title_0?ie=UTF8&qid=1283706190&sr=8-1. I also recommend "Beyond Crunches" (http://www.amazon.com/Bullet-Proof-Abs-2nd-Beyond-Crunches/dp/0938045253/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1283706377&sr=1-1), although way too much of the book is spent advertising an unnecessarily expensive device (the "Pavelizer") that helps you do Janda sit-ups without an assistant. In short: educate yourself.
Third, teach yourself to do Janda sit-ups...you can find instructions for free on Youtube. Janda sit-ups (a modified sit-up that does a terrific job of negating the psoas effect) are just about the best exercise you can do for your abs, and all you need is an exercise ball, not a huge $60 coat hanger.

I have to say I'm verry, verry pleased. I debated buying this for a very long time and I wish I didn't. Don't believe the negative commenst you might see. I own a lot of expensive exercise equiptment and this is one of my favorites and works a targeted problem area I have had for a long time. After only 3 weeks I have noticed a remarkable change in my stomach area. Keep in mind I was not able to do even 3 sit ups before I purchased this item and within 1 week I was doign 2 reps of 10 and have progressivly worked towards more as of today. I have lost in 1 month almost 1/2 inch in my ab area and 1/4 from my hips and 1/4 inch on my thighs,I was not going to leave a review until I gave this at least one month trial I can actually see defination beginning that I have never seen in myself before ever!
Now if you are looking for this to do the work for you this is not for you but if you are willing to do the work it does assist you and I have also noticed I can do different tarketed areas depending on how I position myself so this does much more then I expected. For me dont listen to thoes negatives ads on this product I almost didn't get this product because of them and in my opnion after one month use they are not truthfull or you are hearing from someone whom wants the results or easy way out and not do the work and as we all know if you really want to change soemthing you have to do the work and this product assists very well....This vendor was great the item shipped quickly and reasonable I Highly 100% Recomend the ABROCKET

I received my Ab Rocket from Brookstone and it was in perfect condition, easy to assemble and exactly what it was described to be online. I use it every day and I can feel the muscles in my abdominal area truly getting a workout. I would recommend this product to anyone interested in working on their stomach area... Plus, I do have a Gym membership that I use in conjunction with my Ab Rocket.
