Work both sides of your obliques with the AB Swing.
In order to work your obliques on the AB Swing, sit at an angle in the chair with your body weight resting on only one side of your buttocks. Grab the handlebars and make sure that your feet are securely planted on the foot rest. When you do the swing crunch motion in this body position, your obliques will be isolated. After you do one side, transfer your body weight to the opposite side of your buttocks and work the other side of your obliques.
Isolate your lower abs with leg lifts on the AB Swing.
Sit on the AB Swing facing forward, hold onto the handlebars or hold your hands in the air, and place your feet firmly on the foot rest. To get the best workout for your lower abdominal muscles on the AB Swing, do leg lifts. Keeping your legs straight, lift your legs on the swing as high as you can. Repeat a set of 10-12 leg lifts three to four times every other day.
Use crunches on the AB Swing to strengthen your upper abdominal muscles.
Sit down on the AB Swing in the same position as you would for working your lower abdominal muscles. This time, instead of lifting your legs up, use your upper abs to crunch downward. Crunch forward as far as you can using your upper abdominal muscles. Repeat a set of 10-12 crunches three to four times every other day.
