The Ab Circle Pro Review - The Treadmill For Your Abs
Posted by Carol J Bartram in Diet Plans
In the slimming and toning market of today, everyone is looking for a miracle! As a Personal Trainer, sometimes I feel that people think they will lose weight if I just wave a magic wand at them; what I offer them instead is an exercise machine called the Ab Circle Pro. I tell them that there is no miracle to help them lose weight, they can only do it themselves. But believe me, used regularly, the Ab Circle Pro will certainly help!
Trying to tone your abs while lying on the floor causes problems in lots of ways. It is very easy to hurt your back in this position, and placing your hands behind your head means that you tend to pull yourself up into a Sit-up, which simply makes your neck muscles tired and causes them to ache. This has no toning effect whatsoever on your stomach! The advantage of the Ab Circle Pro is that it takes you up off the floor and into a supported hands and knees position, meaning that your stomach muscles are held flat and your spine is in the perfect position so as not to be injured while you exercise.
At first glance, the Ab Circle Pro looks quite unusual, but it is made of quality steel that will last a lifetime and has a patented easy-slide track. It takes up hardly any room in your home, unlike some big bulky exercise machines and has the added advantage of being easy to set up, folding quickly away after use for storage under your bed or in the closet. The unique feature of the Ab Circle Pro is that you exercise in a supported all fours position, holding the comfortable padded handgrips while you swing your hips from side to side, thus keeping your back and neck in a safe and correct position. Exercising this way means that you combined the benefits of cardio exercise with the bonus of toning all the waist muscles.
As a Personal Trainer, I am always telling my clients that the best results come from regular workouts that involve both cardio and toning exercises. Cardio exercises use large muscle groups and raise the heart rate, training the heart and lungs to work more efficiently. Brisk walking, swimming and cycling come into this category. Toning exercises concentrate on smaller areas of the body, such as the thighs, butt and stomach. The Ab Circle Pro combines both types of exercise to give great results in as little as two weeks — guaranteed!
For just $14.95 you can have a 30 day trial of the Ab Circle Pro in your own home. I am certain that at the end of this time you will be so pleased with the Ab Circle Pro that you will want to keep it, but if you are not happy with it for any reason, just return it. The full cost of the Ab Circle Pro is a reasonable $199.75 and it comes with a healthy eating guide and a great workout DVD to get you started. Get ready to lose your love handles and get on the fast track to great abs with the Ab Circle Pro!
Low carb adherents are better able to think critically because we follow an eating plan that has caused the fog to lift, we can think much more clearly than we did when we tried other, less effective, plans. And now that we can think so much better, we want to absorb even more information, keep up with the latest studies and research.
And we can appreciate the other things we read that aren’t related to health and nutrition, because we can think better, retain what we read. Whoever said low carbers have cognitive decline wasn’t thinking clearly, probably from eating a low fat diet…..
I am sort of mulling a wacky idea these days. You know how dentists like to give out printed “treatment plans” with every conceivable thing they can get money for on it? (I am cynical, live with it.) Anyhow–much as I often criticize these, maybe doctors should do the same–hand out a printed sheet with the plan on it. Sort of like they should, but do not always do, when you leave the hospital. That way, one could look over the elements calmly at home, at leisure (and not rely on those second parties always recommended to be in the room–and which I have found to be pretty unreliable listeners). The plans could be boilerplate loaded in the computer the docs like to tap on these days. One element could be: ATTEMPT TO LOSE 10 LBS. Reason: Studies (list one or two) show that even this small amount can change your blood sugar profile, etc. How: A balanced 1500-calorie diet for one week follows on here. Many patients like to write down their meals each day. ETC. Then the next element of the plan would be listed. TAKE A STATIN. Why…studies….etc.
Some people learn visually, some take in information from printed forms, some can listen well–this plus the doctor speaking–could be effective and time-saving.
What would my reaction be if presented with such a plan? I don’t know…what do you think? I remember memorizing the surgery instructions when I had all my eye operations–I really took the written matter to heart. Unfortunately was poorly done.
Just an idea..and goes beyond handing out those pamphlets, which are very bland..
