Abdominal Exercisers Fitness Equipment Gym, Workout & Yoga Exercise & Fitness

The most common abdominal exerciser these days is the exercise ball. By forcing the body to work to stay balanced, you get a much more intense workout than just doing abs on a board. This is also one of the few abdominal exercisers to build muscle endurance along with strength. The muscles must constantly adjust the body's position to stay on the ball, especially while doing abdominal crunches. Lie face up while balancing on the ball with your feet planted on the floor for stability. Now you can do your favorite crunch variations and get all the added benefits of balancing on the exercise ball.

Another popular abdominal exerciser is the Roman Chair. This exerciser is a simple padded back with two parallel arms that hold your body in the proper crunch position. Instead of leaning forward to work your abdominal muscles, you pull your legs up toward your chest and use gravity to provide the resistance. The Roman Chair is more effective for exercising the muscles of your lower abs than many of the other abdominal exercisers on the market.
