Tips & Warnings

  • Stretching before any exercise helps to eliminate muscle strain and muscle pulling.

  • Start off slow with only a few repetitions at a time.

  • As you build up your muscle tone you can increase repetitions and the time spent exercising on the Ab Lounger.

  • Follow a healthy diet and exercise plan for maximum results.

  • Wear comfortable fitness clothing and athletic shoes that will help aid in the exercise process.

  • The flat position with the knees bent is an easy way to warm up on the Ab Lounger and is the most common exercise position for the Ab Lounger fitness equipment.

  • The jack knife position is more difficult but really works the abdominal muscles hard and takes time to build up the repetitions.

  • The bent torso position allows the side of your abdominals to become toned and svelte.

  • Do not bend your body in a way that will strain your muscles or cause injury.

  • Make sure the Ab Lounger is unfolded before use, if not this could cause serious injury.

  • If experiencing discomfort with the back of your legs against the Ab Lounger, wear long pants to prevent this from happening.
