Ab exercises are one of the most popular, and yet, most controversial topics in the exercise and health/fitness industry. Hundreds of ab belts, ab gadgets, ab gimmicks, and ab exercise machines have flooded the exercise market for people looking for sexier and flatter abs… that sexy six-pack abs appearance that everybody wants.

Ab exercises are one of the most popular, and yet, most controversial topics in the exercise and health/fitness industry. Hundreds of ab belts, ab gadgets, ab gimmicks, and ab exercise machines have flooded the exercise market for people looking for sexier and flatter abs… that sexy six-pack abs appearance that everybody wants.

The problem is that most of the ab exercises that are recommended all over the internet, and in magazines, etc, are not necessarily the best method to get that six-pack abs appearance. First and foremost, the most important aspect for great looking six pack abs is losing the extra stomach fat that is covering up the abs. To be honest, most people already have decent abs underneath, yet the six-pack is simply covered up by all of that extra flabby belly fat.

Instead of focusing so much on ab exercises to make your belly flatter and more like a six-pack, you will lose much more abdominal fat by focusing the majority of your workout time with special combinations of high intensity full-body, multi-joint exercises. The best exercises for losing that sloppy ab fat are the exercises that work the largest portions of the body at once.

Fitness professionals know the benefits of strength training and want the best for their clients. The advent of strength training and “fusion” in aerobics classes has lent itself to better accessibility to these benefits. Still, many of the best “bodybuilding” exercises that I had used for years with excellent results were just not being used in group exercise classes.

One of the major hurdles was to modify these exercises to suit different participant’s needs and fitness levels and the equipment itself, which needed to be simple and portable. As a Personal Trainer and group exercise instructor, I saw the usual equipment like bands and dumbbells was just that, usual, I wanted to design an exercise tool that was new, effective (the bands and dumbbells were just not cutting it for working the back, chest and abs) and of course, fun.

All of these challenges have been met with the Equalizer which makes traditional strength training in a group setting easy and accessible. Club Business International Magazine says, “The heart of this exercise tool is two, eight pound steel bars but its simplicity belies its sophistication”.
