Works Well October 14, 2008 Bought this device a few weeks ago. It does take a bit to get used to. Your body must get accustomed to the movement but after a few times doing the crunches you will no longer have any difficulties AND it does work, that is for sure. The Rocket is durable too. The top head rest was a little awkward for me as I am over 6 foot tall. All I did was wrap an old towel around it and it works fine. I would recommend this product.
Easy to do October 13, 2008 I was visiting my cousin over the summer and he had the Ab Rocket. I tried it because I find setups and crunches bother my back and neck. With the Ab Rocket I get the support I need and I saw a difference in two weeks. I am not too tired when finished
DEAL with it October 4, 2008 After a lengthy bout with chronic illness, I'm gradually building up muscle mass and physical strength again. Following injuries from a car crash, I really must have support to do the sit-ups that are essential to managing form and function.
I bought this from Amazon ONLY BECAUSE of Amazon's excellent return policy. Though I was initially skeptical of the TV ads, I am VERY impressed with the Ab Rocker. I was able to set it up myself without any help from anyone. Very little work involved, mostly pre-assembled. If my hands were more arthritic, I suppose I would have needed some help with the tension springs.
I've used it about 4 times and already achieved significant changes in my abdominal profile (and the fit of my jeans). You have to work with the machine the way that it is made. I expected the rollers to massage my back while I was exercising, but they don't really do that for me. What they do IS awesome, though. When you have reached full extension and the machine back is on the floor under you, then you just relax into the rollers and let them provide gentle pressure for a few seconds before contracting to return to upright. While you are relaxing your back into the rollers, pay attention to how your abdominal muscles are contracted. You may be surprised at the locations and the effects achieved.
Also, be sure to set the upper most roller to support your NECK, NOT the back of your head.
If used properly, this machine delivers. It probably is a little over-priced for it's category. The market it serves best would be better served at about $59 - $69, rather than Amazon's current price of $99. Single moms, military wives, folks with less discretionary dollars would probably buy it at a lower price point. Watch for an Amazon sale, folks!
Not comfortable for my height October 1, 2008 I was not comfortable at all working this machine. I was hoping with my back problems that not lying on the floor would be better, but the rollers were uncomfortable and I could not get it in the right resistance.
Absolutely Great September 29, 2008 I am truly satisfied with this purchase and especially for the price I got it through Amazon. I would defintely recommend this product. G from Brooklyn, New York.
