Daily Fitness Tips, Tricks and Secrets

What are you waiting for?!  Want flat, rock hard abs?!  The ab roller is a great buy!  Don’t knock it until you try it…seriously!  This little wheel will roll out your body and flatten your abs in no time.  The ab roller is only about $15.  If you don’t have to money, most gyms will have several to use.  Ready to slim down your core and trim you waistline?!  Lets get started!  Get down on your knees.  Grab the handles of the wheel out in front of you.  Relax into your back but it keep it straight.  Look at 45 degrees to prevent neck strain.  Straighten your arms and roll.  Roll out as far as possible.  Don’t let your belly touch the floor.  Work your obliques by rolling out between the 12 and 2 o’clock position on the right side and the 10 and 12 o’clock position on the left side.  Flatten your belly with the ab roller!

Now try it!  Get into position.  Keep proper form.  Roll out and hold for 2 seconds and return to the start.  It will be hard at first so try to complete at least 5-10 repetitions.  Do the same for your obqliques.  Try to complete at least 2 sets.  This exercise works your upper abs, lower abs, sides of the waistline, upper body, and back!  Challenge your body!

Add this exercise to your weekly abdominal workout.  Get killer abs!!

Abs on fire?!  They should be!  Tell me about it?!

Take care and get fit…Jen :)

  1. I love that thing! When I can find it at the gym, I use it although it seems to “disappear” most of the time. :-(

    Ya got to put that mind/muscle link into it & then, yes, you will feel it!

    You can get the same results by loading two 25lb plates to a barbell (better if you can find a shorter curl bar) and doing the same routine. Save the $15 for a steak after your workout!

  3. I fell in love with this thing!! It really works. It’s a challenge but it’s something I get a little bit better at each day! Thanks for stopping by and commenting Jody!

  4. Great suggestion Kishore. Most gyms have the ab roller so anyone can still save $15!
