Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This product is well designed and constructed.I love it.The design allows one to arch his/her back (like doing a "bridge" stretch) while crunching to further isolate the muscle group and provide a more effective work out.And working the obliques is easy as turning slightly to one side, giving a surprisingly effective workout.And it folds up into a compact configuration for easy storage.The dark gray mesh looks much better than the blue fabric used on the standard model.
LOOKING TO LOSE THAT BELLY FAT?: Sorry, that's not what this machine is for.It will strengthen and tone your abdominal muscles UNDERNEATH any fat residing over the area.Walking, in my opinion, is the easiest way to lose belly fat.I've seen people lose an incredible amount of weight in one year just by walking 30-60 minutes a day and taking it easy on the food binging.
WARNING:Careful with lubricants!Two months after I got this, it started to squeak a little.I sprayed all the mechanical joints with WD40 and OOPS, the frame pivot joints use LOCKNUTS (secured internally by a polymer sleeve).Now, one of them won't stay locked any more and will work itself loose if not locked down some other way.I couldn't find a suitable replacement part at the local Home Depot so I jury-rigged it and it stays put now.
After a year of use, averaging about 400 (double-)crunches/week, it shows no signs of wear (I weigh ~175 lbs) and still functions flawlessly.Outstanding!
