REVIEW
We used this device for 5 weeks and even if it seems fair to locate the device, it is more than enough.
Use
This device is easy to use. easy to use and handle. The crunch movement (basic abdominal movement) is facilitated thanks to the articulated back system and its adjustable resistance which helps during the ascent.
In addition, the device allows people with difficulties to bend down and sit on the floor to perform abdominal movements.
The seat and backrest are relatively comfortable and the height and depth adjustment of the bench allows it to adapt to more sizes (1.60 m-1.80m). We can regret that there is no protection above the joint and no headrest either.
Please note, this device does not contain the straps for the arms as in the photo.
Efficiency / Resistance
If the basic movements (crunch, reverse crunch) are not to be proven either, t ous the exercises proposed are not, however, as useful and efficient.
In addition, as is often the case with this type of device, the resistance is too low. This is good for maintenance and leisurely "building" muscles, but not enough for getting bulging abs. For people wishing to work more dynamically and therefore with more intensity, it will be necessary to turn to other devices such as the abdominal wheels.
Finally if you rely on this device to lose fat by excess in your abdominal belt, you will be disillusioned. We remind you that to burn calories, you need high intensity exercise, which this device does not do.
Strength
This is where the shoe pinches. This item is not very strong for a "weight" machine and hardly supports people over 70kg. It squeaks, we feel that the working mechanism and the bindings play very quickly. The bar where the wrists are located moves a lot and it unbalances certain movements.
We don't have it. not tested long enough to see how it evolves over the long term, but the results of our use do not offer good prospects.
