Many individuals are ever searching for the best ab exercise equipment and here is a run-down of 5 pieces of equipment that you can use in your ab workouts.
1.Stability Ball- This is a large and inflatable ball used as exercise equipment. It is used to increasing range of motion for crunches and other abdominal exercises, the stability ball also improves your balance and coordination. You can start with the basics such as regular crunches or oblique crunches. The stability ball ab exercises are a good addition to your ab workout.
2.Medicine Ball- Medicine ball exercises are an important tool for developing sport-specific power. Although some people may think that medicine balls are only for boxers and athletes, medicine balls can really enhance your core workout. When basic crunches or other ab exercises become too easy, adding resistance in the form of a medicine ball is a great way to increase the intensity of your ab workout.
3.Ankle Weights- Ankle and wrist weights come in a variety of styles and shapes, but as their name implies, they are weights that you strap onto your wrists or ankles. Ankle weights are a great way to add resistance to your lower body. Ankle weights can increase the intensity of reverse crunches and leg raises. When regular leg raises become really easy, you can add ankle weights to increase the muscle work in your abs.
4.Resistance Tubes & cables- Resistance tubes and Toning Bands are designed to shape tone and further define your muscles. You can perform cable crunches from a low cable tower by lying on the floor and holding the resistance behind your head. Or you can perform cable crunches from a kneeling position. The cables add a very different feeling to your abdominal muscles because of the constant tension from the weight stack, so your abs get a burn throughout the entire range of motion.
5.Ab Wheel- The ab wheel or power wheel is just what it says it is. It is a wheel with a stick in between it. The ab wheel is a very challenging exercise requiring great strength in the core musculature as well as the arms and lats. With your knees on a mat and the ab wheel just off of the mat, roll out with arms straight in front of you supporting your weight on your knees and the ab wheel.
