Rocket AB Rocks !!

I recently purchased this product & I am in LOVE with the concept !!! Regular situps, and to a lesser degree crunches, lose too much of their physical effectiveness to the momentum of movement.A person's AB muscles start the rise, but inertia takes over about halfway up & basically finishes off every rep. Also, BOTH situps and crunches are rough as hell on the tailbone, even with a decent excercise mat. After 4 years of HEAVY situp & crunch workouts, my results were still CRUMMY !!!! So, I started looking out for a good AB Machine that would be well built, light, sturdy, and COMPACT in size.... This one fits the bill, and believe me, when you are on this thing, your body is at work ALL the way UP, and ALL the way down.... At the same time, you are not popping a nut, bursting an ovary, or whatever to get thru a workout.. The instructional DVD they provide is EXCELLENT !!!! It includes the Beginning, Medium, Advanced level workouts that are possible with the AB Rocket....Also included in the video are Pilates workouts (these are GREAT) but they AAACK !!! finished the DVD off with a lame dance thing.... DETRACTORS: I`m paranoid that the 6 springs proved will ALL snap someday & render this otherwise PERFECT product useless... I`m not supposed to mention what other postings say, but, I agree, the springs DO appear to be the WEAKEST LINK.... The AB ROCKET itself is VERY light & strong in construction... Hey, this thing costs about 90 bucks..... It REALLY will cut about 45 minutes off your daily workout, if you are as hardcore as I was, with the situps & crunches.... Yeah, I did take off the 2 inches they said, but it took a lot more than 14 days.... They also throw in a meal plan with daily diet cards.... This menu may or may not work for you... All I know is that my butt is FINALLY off the floor, my tummy is trimmer, and my workouts are done almost 45 minutes sooner... -Mike From Largo Fl.-

I like the concept and puchased the product, putting it together is very simple, using it is simpler still. Most puchasers will need the heavy tension spring to provide working tension both ways for the most effective use. It does not replace crunches or sit ups, but it adds many more reps which may help do what is advertized. Watch out for the possibility of tension springs snapping at the point they go on to the ab rocket frame. Other than that it is ok. you get what you pay for.
