Product Description
The secret to the Ab Lounge jack-knife is this incredible range of motion, which takes you back beyond 180 degrees. The greater the range of motion the longer your ab muscles are working. So you're not working harder, you're working smarter! The Ab Lounge's frame is capable of handling up to 275 pounds but now the Ab Lounge XL product has been absolutely loaded with extras. Not only is your head, neck and back fully supported during your workout, but now the Ab Lounge XL seat is made of a "cool," breathable mesh for extra comfort.To target your ab muscles, position counts - even your hands. Use the Ab Lounge XL padded iso-grips for the basic jack knife.The Ab Lounge XL foot pedals are different as well, now they move with you for extra comfort. That's right. 1-step adjustment for beginners and extra petite Ab Loungers. For an extra custom fit. So just about anyone can use it.

Amazon.com Product Description
The Ab Lounge XL Abdominal Exerciser is the newest model of the revolutionary abdominal fitness trainers made by Fitness Quest. Enjoy a full range of motion without straining your head, neck, and back, as the Lounge XL allows you to exercise off the floor. Maintain better form, and efficiency of movement than you could with traditional bent-knee crunches as you tone your upper and lower abdominals, and watch your love handles melt away. Full recline option provides over 180 degrees of motion, allowing you to release stress that has built up in your spine and neck muscles. The "jackknife" movement focuses the workout strictly on your core stomach and back muscles, for a safe, efficient, and targeted workout.

The Ab Lounge XL Abdominal Exerciser takes abdominal exercise chairs to a new level of comfort. The cool, breathable mesh seat, and durable rolled steel frame can support up to 275 pounds. Padded ISO-grip handles are comfortable to hold, and make the jackknife motion easier, particularly for beginners. Adjustable foot pedals easily accommodate any height from 4 feet, 5 inches and up. The new quick-release folding mechanism, with a lever not a hinge, make the chair a snap to fold- just pull back on the lever and fold. Additionally, the Lounge comes equipped with a focus strap, allowing you to perform the advanced jackknife movement by simply extending your legs. Developing your core strength will help you look better, feel better, and perform better in everyday life and play.

At whatever your level of fitness, abdominal exercise chairs allow you to strengthen your core abdominal and back muscles with a full range of motion and improved form. Abdominal exercise chairs help you maintain proper alignment, and efficiency of movement by supporting your head, neck, and back. If you have trouble getting down on the floor, and find traditional stomach crunches awkward and uncomfortable, abdominal exercise chairs make exercising your core accessible. Additionally, you can rest comfortably between repetitions, watch TV, or just lounge on the chair.

5 out of 5 stars AB LOUNGER   January 6, 2009
I PURCHASED THIS FOR MY YOUNGEST SON FOR XMAS. IT WAS THE BEST THING FOR HIM. HE USES IT EVERY DAY AND HAS SEEN RESULTS IN A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS ITEM TO ANYONE THAT WANTS TO LOSE A FEW INCHES FROM VARIOUS PARTS OF THEIR BODIES.


5 out of 5 stars great equipment   November 17, 2008
Great piece of workout equipment. Much easier to do situps/crunches with this than it is alone on the floor. Easier on your back (mostly) as well.

I am a little over 6 feet tall, and was comfortable enough on the machine. I liked the way that it would let you bend backwards as far as you can stabd it. Makes stretching the back easy and not too painful.



5 out of 5 stars good for people who can't do conventional crunches   October 11, 2008
I have cervical arthritis and a few disk bulges in my neck. In a very short time span, I went from being an exercise fanatic with a 6 pack any younger person would envy to not being able to exercise. Thanks to a good therapist and dr., I am on the road to exercising again. But, I have to be careful of anything that puts strain on my neck. I probably spent a good two months looking at different ab exercisers before finally deciding on the Ab Lounge XL. I admit, it was hard for me to buy this type of exercise equipment. I swore I'd never use anything like this when I could just do "real exercises" instead. After using mine for a month, I'm a satisfied convert. I had read some reviews in which exercisers said they weren't getting as good of an ab workout as they'd hoped, or that the Ab Lounger was more for beginners. I realize I'm not in as good of shape as I was a year ago, so I might not be the best judge, but I can see my ab muscles shaping back up already. I'm a small person, so I like that I can flip the foot pedals up to do the exercises. And, for me, the exercises are plenty challenging. Would I recommend using the ab lounger as a sole form of exercise? Absolutely not. But, it works for the abs, which is what it is meant for. Mine makes some squeaking noises, despite my small frame, but it doesn't seem to cause it any problems - and I did buy it used from the Amazon Marketplace. I say it's worth a 5.


4 out of 5 stars Ab Loung XL Review   August 17, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I found the AbLounge XL relatively simple to put together. I am someone who abhors the words "some assembly required" but the instructions were simple to follow. You really need to have a space where this can be utilized. Not good for cramped spaces or close quarters. I would keep pets and children away from this while it is in use. The dangers to small fingers and pet paws are obvious and there are numerous warnings and stickers posted to remind the adult user. I am a short person and the adjustable foot bar is easily adjusted to accomodate a taller user. It is a fun way to work out and I saw results in 10 days.


5 out of 5 stars better than expected   August 5, 2008

I was having some minor back pain due to lack of exercise and extra weight, with this machine and a few minutes a day of simple exercises the back pain is gone. Of course I cannot claim that my muscles are bigger but I feel better. Your mileage may vary.
