One of the frequent infomercials I see these days is the one for the Ab Rocket exercise equipment. I haven't tried this product myself, but I am always looking for new ways to flatten the abs so I decided to do a little research about this product.
The Ab Rocket is a device for working the abs. What's special about it is that it has a neck support and back cushions which are supposed to give you a massage while you're doing crunches. This is supposed to provide an easier experience than regular sit-ups or other abs machines. The Ab Rocket weighs around 10 pounds and is small enough to not take much room around the house. These are just the features of course, the real question is whether or not it works.
The Ab Rocket infomercial promises that using the AbRocket will not only give you a better workout but will also shave inches from you stomach and waist. What bothers me is that it's virtually impossible to spot reduce fat from a specific body part. This means that even if you workout a specific muscle group, you lose fat from all over your body depending on your genetics.
The truth about having six pack abs or toned abs is that you need to be lean for them to show. Even if you have strong stomach muscles, your abs will not show if you have a layer of belly fat to cover them. As you can't lose belly fat alone, I don't see how just working with the AbRocket or any other abs machine will to get you a lean stomach. The way to do that is through cardio workout, total body weight exercises, and a healthy and balanced diet.
The Ab rocket may get you to workout more, and if so, it may be worth to buy. But at the $100 price tag, I think there are better options. Namely, getting an abs program which teaches you what to do in both the fitness aspect and the nutrition one. Because only through combining the right workouts with the right nutrition routine will you become lean enough to have a flat and sexy stomach.
I recommend using a diet program called Truth About Abs as I use it myself to great success and it costs a fraction of what the Ab Rocket costs. If you wish to buy the AbRocket than do so by all means, but I believe that this ab program will provide better results.
