The Ab-Wheel Has Got My Vote as an Ab-Sculpting Device

 
Inches and Pounds. That's what people begin to lose from their waistlines within days of using an abdominal exercise device called the Ab Wheel.

The first time I was introduced to it was in the year 2000.

It was while working out in the gym downstairs in our office building.
I was using the 'crunching machine' thinking I was doing something worth mentioning, when this guy pulled out a device that looked like a wheel with two handles around it.

He challenged me to do 10 repetitions of this abdominal exercise device and imagine the testosterone driven reaction when I sighed and said 'please, what the heck can that do'?

A lot.

I tried one repetition and though I made it to about 8 (okay, I'll never tell you what the exact number was but still'); I knew this ab-wheel thingy was on to something for abdominal exercises.

Your arms, upper back and shoulders benefit from the forward pushing and pulling. In fact, if you carry stress in your upper back, you can forget about it. The Ab- Wheel is going to loosen you up in that area.

Moreover, (of course considering my dietetic habits), within about a few weeks, I got not a 6-pack, but an 8-pack folks.

My tricep cuts started to be more defined than ever and my outer chest muscles greatly benefited from this.

In addition when you roll out to your sides (not even necessary with this device but still') you target the love handles as well.

For how to use it: start with a hand on each grip and kneel down with both knees together on the floor. Lock your arms and hold the wheel at your knees on the floor.

Slowly roll the wheel out and away from your knees and continue going forward until your hands are beyond your head. Do not touch the floor; your body should be 3-6 inches above the floor. Return to the starting position by pulling in with your abdominal muscles and arching your back. Keep your arms straight and use your core muscles to return to the starting position again. Breathe in at the start and exhale on the way down. 7-10 repetitions equal one set AND one hell of a workout!

Most of all; dig this, if you go to a store like Sports Authority, Champs or even an Ancient Market, you can get it for only $9.95.

I don't know about you, but if a device that inexpensive can get not only my abs, but perhaps my whole upper-body in great shape and tone, it sure has got my vote.

Not convinced, try it out and you'll see.

In Friendship,

Foras Aje was born in Washington DC and at the age of four moved with his family to Ijebu-Igbo, Ogun State, Nigeria. It was here that he was endowed by his father with a desire to delve into the cause and reasons for occurrences and results.

This lent itself into finding the solutions to the maladies acne and asthma, of which he was suffering, after other conventional methods proved unsuccessful. Consequently, this placed him on the path of naturopathy otherwise known as drugless healing.

Through a radical change in diet and exercise: (Yoga and Calisthenics), he was able to banish close to a decade of his marring acne and a lifetime of asthma. Along with this came the disappearance of depression, lethargy and a marked increase in overall health and fitness.

Convinced of the efficiency of the methods passed down from great health pioneers, in his words: "My goal is to show as many people as I can the wonderful results of Nature's way of healing the body if she's only given half a chance! There is no limit to the potential the human body has when it adheres to her laws! With proper diet, positive mental attunement and exercise, any and everyone can unshackle the bondage of misery and disease in one's own life."
