These days ab trainers are found in most gyms, and are a popular and effective piece of equipment. They can add a different dimension to your home workouts, adding some variety to your home workout programme.
The ab trainer is a metal cradle that supports you while you perform your abdominal crunches. Typically made of thick steel tubing, they also have a padded headrest that provides support for your neck.
The advantages of using an ab trainer include:
- No learning curve - anyone can perform crunches properly
- Good cervical support
- No pulling on the neck
If you are looking to buy one, make sure that you get the right size - they usually come in two sizes, for those under and over 5' 3".
Durability is also important, so look particularly at the way the bars are joined, and the quality of the head cushion. When you perform crunches you put a lot of torque on the bars, so the joints must be quite strong. The cushion is also important, it presses quite firmly on your neck, so if it has a poorly positioned or thin pad, it will be uncomfortable.
