GETTING ON AND OFF THE Ab Coaster®
EXERCISE INSTRUCTIONS
How It Works: The Ab Coaster® is designed to help you exercise your abdominal muscles via a leg lift motion. Unlike the popular sit-up or ab
crunch exercise, which works your abdominals from the “top down”, the Ab Coaster® moves in the opposite direction, working your abs from
the “bottom up.” The basic motion requires you to lift your knees and legs while contracting your abs.
The Ab Coaster® features a Seat moving along a curved track to aid you in performing the abdominal lifting motion. The starting position requires
you to kneel on the Seat while resting your arms on the arm rests. The exercise requires you to lift the Seat along the track by using your abdominal
muscles, not by using your arms or your upper body. The key to performing the exercise properly is to concentrate on contracting your ab muscles
prior to and while you lift the Seat. Your upper body should be stable and should not be moving or swaying while you exercise.
Step 1: Make sure the Ab Coaster® is placed on a flat, stable surface.
Step 2: Approach the Ab Coaster® from the side, not the back, of the unit.
Step 3: Place forearms and elbows on arm pads. Grasp handles to maintain
your balance.
Step 4: While grasping handles, place knees on Seat so that your feet
are hooked on the back edge of the seat. You are now ready
to exercise.
