As Seen On TV!
A great way to get a quick, efficient workout on your abs for less.
|
Ab Lounge is a revolutionary new ab machine that tightens and tones upper abs, lower abs and obliques faster than you ever thought possible! Ab Lounge helps to transform flabby abs into sensationally sexy swimsuit abs!
The Ab Lounge's secret is the biomechanically-advanced Jack Knife ab crunch that's clearly more effective than standard crunches. The Ab Lounge Jack Knife works your abdominal muscles with a fuller range of motion than crunches or sit-ups. And the fuller the range of motion, the LONGER your abs are toning and tightening during each jack knife rep. Ab Lounge also strengthens your all-important core muscles - your abs and back muscles where your functional strength originates. A stronger core gives you greater "everyday strength" for the "heavy lifting of daily living" with less strain on your body and back. |
