What are some of the most effective pieces of abdominal equipment?

The least effective abdominal machine has to be the ab rocker. It is really a waste of time if you ask me. Sure, it is comfortable for the head and shoulders, but it just doesn't deliver the same results as doing crunches or using equipment like the captain's chair.

Torso track is a very effective equipment for working out the abdominal muscles. According to a study done at San Diego State University, using the torso track is more beneficial than doing regular crunches. Using the torso track, you basically need to place your hands on the handles and slide back and forth.

A captain's chair is one of the most effective abdominal equipment. It is an upright piece of equipment with two arm sets on the sides. Using the captain's chair, you work out both the central and lower ab muscles.

The torso track is a type of abdominal machine. It targets the upper, middle, and lower abdominal muscles. Here is an image of a torso track -

I think so, but don't just take my word for it. I have one at home and use it 4 times a week - it is so easy to use. I found you some customer reviews to browse through, maybe they will be informative.

Most people use a pull-up bar for their arms; however it can also be used to work on your abdominal muscles. If you hang your legs over the bar you can raise your body up from a hanging position (quite similar to using a captain's chair).

I would highly recommend getting an ab wheel. They are small, convenient and most of all affordable. Here is a short video that will explain what an ab wheel is and how to properly use it.
