Product Description
You can eat more potato chips if you do your crunches! Well, actually, this Ab Lounge Ultra's "Jackknife" exercise delivers a better abdominal workout than simple bent-knee crunches! Unlike crunches, it supports your body, especially your head, neck and back, throughout the exercise. It effectively works your muscles in the upper and lower abdominals, and obliques (the "love handles" area). And because you're up off the floor, your muscles have a total range of motion for better results. The new Ultra model has a top Focus Strap along with padded handles, for varied hand positions. Rolled steel frame supports up to 250 lbs. Premium mesh seat breathes for comfort. Workout DVD included. Measures 39 1/2 x 30 x 44 1/2", weighs 32 lbs. Some assembly required. Folds for easy storage. Now about those potato chips... keep in mind that crunchy raw veggies now and again won't kill you! That flatter, stronger stomach you've always wanted is closer than you think!

 Big Workout. Little Time. July 28, 2008

What can this workout machine do? In only 5 minutes it can reduce fat. After a few usings it can make your abs flat. After a few weeks, you might even have a 6-pack! Plus, it puts no stress on your back! I do 100 reps a day- it's not hard- and boy, do my abs look amazing!

I can feel the burn when I use it. I don't get much time to exercise and this is a quick, useful tool. Be sure you have the room to keep it set up, because (if your like me) otherwise out-of-sight-out-of-mind and it will then be a waste of $ not to use it. I don't have time to fold it up and store it and then to bring it out to use it for 5 minutes. I would be using more time to get it out and put it away.
Great product, broke after just over a year of consistent use. June 9, 2008

The metal joint connecting the bar that has the foot rests on it to the bottom part of the chair has fractured, rendering the product completely useless. It looks like it was a crappy soldering job done by the manufacturer, I'm surpised it even lasted this long. I've used it almost every day now for about a year and 2 months.
It's a great product, very easy to use and I had only minor problems with it (I did have to take it apart and spray WD-40 on the bolts to get it to stop squeaking, twice). Also, the cloth handles broke after almost the first few weeks of use, but that didn't really matter to me because I grabbed the metal poles just above the handles since it felt like a better workout that way.
I've found out that, to get the best workout out of it, you have to concentrate on using your abdominal muscles every time you do a sit up. For example, it is possible to do an entire sit-up rep by just using your arms and pulling your body down and then back up again but that does nothing for your abs. You really have to force your abs to do all the work when going both down and back up again.
I'm contacting Fitness Quest to see about getting this fixed or replaced. I'm hoping they'll give me some sort of compensation since this is not something that should happen with normal wear and tear, but if not I will just buy another one at full price because it's worth it.
IT WORKS! May 27, 2008

The Ab Lounger actually does what it claims to do....it works! It is a reasonably "painless" way to do sit-ups, which we all know is the only way to really work on the "abs!" I hate regular sit-ups, but with the Ab-Lounger, I have it positioned so that I can watch TV and just "crunch" away. In 5 weeks I've lost 2 1/2 Inches on my waistline, and I am beginning to see a flatter ab area...still a ways to go, but I actually know I can get there with the help of the Ab Lounger.
