Two Worthless Ab Tools – the Ab Chair and the Ab King Pro
There are several reasons why both the ab chair and the ab king pro are a complete waste of money and time if you are looking for a good ab program. There are several reasons for this, and we will outline these reasons briefly in this article.
First, they cost too much money. With each costing around $100, you really have to ask the question – is it worth it? Or, a better question would be – can I get a better workout for less money? The answer to those questions are no and yes, respectively. No, they are not worth it; and yes, there is a much better alternative – either just doing regular situps or buying a Swiss ball and working out with that.
Second, do they do what they claim to do? Or, do they actually work out your abs? The answer to those questions is no, and no. They both claim to work your abs, with less work than normal workouts, and get you great looking eight pack abs. That is not going to happen, not even with their ‘expanded range of motion’. This won’t happen for a few reasons. One, there is not as much resistence. Sorry, but if you don’t have resistence you don’t have muscle growth. Two, that expanded range of motion can actually hurt you – you only need 30 degrees of motion to work out your abs. Three, targeting your abs with situps or any other wieght-lifting programs won’t work off that extra fat just from your abs. If you want the fat off, you need to do aerobic workouts.
Bottom Line
Don’t waste your money on these ‘latest and greatest’ ab machines. They simply aren’t worth it, and many would not be worth it even if they were free. Instead, stick with tried and true methods – hard, careful work, eating right – not cutting corners with funky machines.
