 Great device, but let's be realistic March 20, 2007

I love this Ab Wheel, but some of the reviews here are ridiculous, like when a woman claims it burned off 20 pounds in a month. That's 72,000 calories, or 2400 calories a day. To put that in perspective, you'd have to run 24 miles a day, every day, to take off 20 pounds in a month just through exercise.
Let's say you can use this devise for 3 minutes before you tire out. Heck, give it the benefit of the doubt say 5 minutes. That means it might burn off 50 calories a day. If you did that every day (unlikely, because your abs would want some rest), you could burn off just under half a pound in a month. And that's based on some pretty optimistic assumptions.
So it's not a weight loss device. But it IS a great ab strengthener, better than anything else I've use. It'll tighten up your stomach like crazy, and as long as you do some cardio to burn and keep the fat off, you'll end up with a great, flat, ripped up stomach.

Can't really go wrong here. A metal post, some rubber grips, and a couple of wheels. It works great, and was the cheapest I found.
Just a tip, if you've never used it before, don't try to be a tough guy and do a rep from your feet. You may be tough, but you might also hurt your back. Start on your knees until you know for sure you're a tough guy.

Sturdy, works well, easy to disassemble and toss in a suitcase. The exercise is surprisingly hard, you must have strong abs to begin with, combine this exercise with sit-ups. Must be used on carpet or a towel or something under the knees.
How much more do you have to read? This product works!!! May 11, 2007

I was in the market for something to get my stomach the way it used to be when i was younger. honestly i was looking for the easy way out. i read reviews on the sauna belt and the slendertone, and thank god those people talked me out of buying it. ive tried the ab ball which works but nothing gave me the results like this product did. the minute i got it i used it and i was hooked. im about average weight with pudge around the belly but after using this product for about 3 weeks if i suck in my stomach a i can definately see muscle forming. Nothing on here beats the price and the results you get. i have a history of a bad back but this product doesn't aggrivate it at all. it's no miracle machine and gets you rock hard abs over night, but it works!!! i'll definitly vouch for this product.
Its the cheapest out there. March 20, 2007

I can't believe some companies will charge $86 for the same concept. This one cost $6! Possibly the cheapest in the US market.
Performing this excercise is extremely hard. I first saw this done standing by jackie chan in the movie "gorgeous". You need strong abs and chest to start with, plus good arms to keep balance, if you want to perform at this level.
when you start out on your knees. Be sure to wear gloves, the handles are stiff plastic. Then TRY JUST ONE complete rep and celebrate. If returning to the original position (pinching your abs together) is hard, then try resetting yourself and just concentrate on going down (stretching your back and abs out). Then the next day try 2 reps. Then take a day off. Overdoing will be painful the next morning.
I really recommend doing this excercise as your FIRST workout before working other parts of your body. It would be tough to even hold the thing together after pumping your tri/bicepts or shoulders.
TIP leave an inch gap between the wheels by wrapping some rope around the bar to make the balancing act a lot easier.
Finally, i happy to say after a few months of doing this on my knees i was able to start off from a standing position jackie chan style.
I have pretty strong six pack now, I can take blows from a 10 year old. But i still have a nice sheet of flab over my abs from the lack of running this winter.
Goodluck to those who dare this feat.
