 Not for big people September 9, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The Ab Rocket is a nice looking piece of equipment. it's nicely built and sturdy, but it's not made for big people. Like 6'2" 260 lbs. My wife uses it and it works for her. The strongest springs are too light for me, my head sits way over the last rubber rest on the machine so basically I can't use it. The video is fine. So I would recommend this machine for medium size women only.

 Great workout... September 8, 2008
I feel the remarks about the spring are true however my belief is that the springs only give enough tension to bring itself up and give you some back stain relief. I have chronic back pains and I need to have my abdominal wall muscles to be strong to support my back... This trainer did the trick.. I get a nice burn in 3 sets of 20 and I feel better and better.

Haven't tried the product yet but wanted to clarify price for prior commentor. Need to read the fine print. On the tv commercial, it's $15 for free trial. Actual price is 3 payments of $39.95 (i.e. more than Amazon price)
The Laziest Six Pack Ever!!! August 31, 2008
This product really works. My sister first got it and when I saw how easy and well it worked I had to get on for myself. You could even watch t.v while doing it. It really is just rocking back and forth, and all you are using is your stomach. Assembly was a little hard, you have to put some muscle in to it, but that is pretty much it. This really works, and coming from a person who use to work out the old fashion way, this is much more effective and if your back hurts with this, it's only because of the tightening of the muscles around your abs. Get this product and enjoy!!!.
Your ABS will BURN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! August 26, 2008

I just received the Ab Rocket and it is the greatest! I've read all the reviews when deciding to buy and I COMPLETELY disagree with the following comments (carpet stains, noise, made of plastic, not enough resistance) - those are all lies!!!
I'm not kidding. It makes NO NOISE, it is made of metal which is welded (and I weld and so I know what a good weld looks like), it doesn't stain carpets and it has plenty of resistance.
Many people who complain about the resistance don't understand that the resistance is there to help you out and not do the work for you. Imagine how much of an ab workout you would get if you sat in the front seat of your car and hit the button to make your car seat go into its upright position???? And this is the type of support people are expecting!! You would never work your abs that way. The resistance is there to assist you - not do the work for you!!! You have to use your abs for this to work.
The great thing is that instead of using 1/2 your muscles to support your back and neck and the other 1/2 to work your abs - you are using 90% of your muscles to work your abs. You will feel the burn immediately. I just did 10 "crunches" on the Ab Rocket and still feel the burn 20 minutes later.
Do your abs a favor and try it out now that you know what it is REALLY all about. Oh, and the Ab Rocket has an adjustable headrest that fits any size person (my wife uses it lower and I use it on the higher level) - and it is simple to adjust.
I also got the Flexmaster with mine which is also great - each resistance band has fully adjustable resistance.
