The Ab Coaster

You’ve probably seen it all over the television commercials and even in some of your favorite magazines. The Ab Coaster is said to be the most effective way to work out your abs and get you that sexy six pack you’ve always wanted. However, doesn’t that sound a whole lot like a bunch of the other ab machines that have been coming out over the years? The Ab Coaster definitely appears like a good workout machine, but obviously most of us are still skeptical and not without good reason. So let’s take a look at some of the specifications and features.

•       All Steel Construction     
•     1.5″ Steel Rails    
•     Nylon Rollers    
•     Steel Bearings    
•     Vinyl Covered Molded Foam Pads    
•     350 lb. Weight Capacity
•      Digital Workout Counter
•     1.5″ Steel Rails    
•     20 lb. Weight Plate Capacity
•     Nylon Rollers    
•     Easy-Move Casters
•     Steel Bearings    
•     Powder Coat Finish
•      3-Position Adjustable Seat plus Free-Style Motion

The dimensions and weight for the Ab Coaster are approximately L 51″ W25″ H50″ Weight: 70 lb.  From the looks of it after reading these stats, at least it seems like the ab coaster is well built.  It comes with a one year warranty so that makes things a bit more assuring as well.

However, the real question that is probably on everybody’s mind is how effective is the ab coaster really? Well, the ab coaster claims to work your whole abdominal area which is the main benefit of using one. The lower abs are typically what sets people back in their quest to achieve that six pack look. With a simple adjustment of the pad, you can also work out your obliques. Do you need the ab coaster to work out all these areas? No, but it certainly does make things easier.
