My head is spinning right now. I was so dead set on getting an Ab Circle Pro machine...until I read a bazillion reviews on it (mostly bad about the machine being of poor quality). Then I started looking at additional options (Ab Coaster, Ab Flyer....) :frown:

While I plan on doing my regular cardio (I do a two-mile power walk every day with additional moves ala Leslie Sansone), I wanted to get opinions as to what is out there that will help me work on my "pooch". It is definitely my problem area :sad:.

I posted this in the Exercise/Fitness section hoping someone has any ideas, but this is where I pretty much "live", so wanted to check in with my pals to see if you have any thoughts :wink3:!

I tried a machine at my local fitness store that totally made you feel the burn. I don't know the name of it but you place your legs on a pad kneeling where your feet are just hanging off and you place your elbows in slots kinda up near the digital readout. there are handgrips up there also to hold on to. the object is to use your ab muscles to slowly pull yourself up on the curved bars the pad sits on then slowly lower yourself back down.

I hope this description helps. The store that has it by my house is Chicago Home Fitness.

I have an Ab Rocket. I bought it off of eBay brand new for about 80 bucks shipped. It is pretty good. I still have my "pooch" though, but it has gone down some, however. Belly fat is tough for a lot of people to get rid of.
