Amazon.com Product Description Strengthen your core with the simple, effective, and economical Double Ab Wheel by Ironman. This straightforward, inexpensive, and low-bulk piece of exercise equipment tones and builds strength in your core abdominal and back muscles, as well as your arm and shoulder muscles in one simple exercise. Composed of a sturdy metal post, two rolling wheels for stability, and rubber grips for comfort, the Ab Wheel is easy to disassemble and toss in a suitcase. Unlike bulky ab balls or chairs, the Ab Wheel can be stowed just about anywhere. Its rubber contoured handles provide a comfortable and secure grip and its double wheel provides stability. Extremely durable and smooth rolling, the Ab Wheel strengthens your abdominals from top to bottom as well as your back, arms, and shoulders through one fluid movement. To use the Ab Wheel, you start out on your knees with one hand on each grip. You then slowly roll the wheel out and away from your knees and continue going forward until your hands are beyond your head without touching the floor. You return to your starting position by pulling in with your abdominal muscles and arching your back. Unlike sit-ups and other targeted abdominal exercises, the Ab Wheel challenges more muscles groups in less time. Users of the Ab Wheel feel the exercise in their chest, upper and lower back, triceps, and biceps as well, improving their allover body strength and alignment, and find that they can achieve exciting results with fewer repetitions than with sit-ups and crunches.

great for small spaces January 9, 2009 ideal for anyone with a small amount of space who wants to work out a lot of their body
pretty good for the price November 30, 2008 I liked this product well enough. The tread on the wheel had decent gription which allowed for controlled movements.
ABsolutely Amazing November 26, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Let me say this right here and right now: I don't know who was the one who first said that ab wheel exercises are super hard or are murder on your abs. All I know is that even Pavel Tsatsuline was wrong when he said that the ab-wheel is a torture device (or something to that affect).
Here is the deal, I don't know about the rest of the reviewers here but I hardly worked my abs before I got the Ironman Ab Wheel and after doing the kneeling version for a few days I now can do partial pikes from a standing position. Is it easy? NO. But it's not as difficult as people make it out to be.
Now about the device itself. I thought that it will be flimsy because it's plastic, but it's actually quite sturdy and putting it together was a piece of cake. The handle went on easily and I was in business a few seconds after I took it out of the box. Speaking of the handle... Those of you who are complaining that the plastic handle is too hard and that it hurts your palm I can only say this: Stop being wussies... LOL. If you distribute your weight between your grip, arms and lats, as you darn well should, you should have no problem with the handle. It certainly doesn't hurt.
So, do I think it was a good purchase? Definitely. The proof is in the abs, which I began to see only after a few workouts.
The Ironman Double Ab Wheel is a really good product and the exercise is absolutely amazing!
The Best Workout for Your Core Ever Created November 25, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Ab rollers are the single best way to work out your entire core. Do them standing up to get a total body workout. Do straight repetitions for the core and side repetitions for the oblique.
If you don't feel the burn after 10 repetitions, you are doing the exercise wrong. In all exercises, it is the eccentric portion of the exercise that builds muscle. Do the exercise in a smooth, controlled fashion with a 3 concentric and 6 eccentric count. Squeeze at the peak of the motion to get that extra pump.
As in all exercises, make sure to keep your wrists straight and check your posture with these seven vital points: feet hips-width apart and pointed straight ahead; knees slightly bent; pelvis at perfect middle, as if you are sitting at a bar stool; stomach tight, but not flexed; chest straight and aligned on top of ribs; shoulders parallel to ribs; and neck straight on top of body.
This product works! November 18, 2008 Ironman Double Ab Wheel
Very effective little unit and a great value at the price. This device is exactly what I was looking for.
