I've been using an abdominal roller most of my life. When my puppy ate the handles off of my roller that I have had since the seventh grade I went on a search for a new one. I can't believe how much nicer this ab roller is compared to my old one. It's ergonomic handles and wide wheel adds good stability when using it and promotes you to push out more repetitions than you might otherwise do in a set. I'm 55 years old and still have a flat stomach with a defined six pack. It actually works many other muscle groups particularly your triceps, laterals, and chest too. Be ready for some severely sore lower abdominal muscles if you're a beginner with this workout. It seriously shreds so build up slowly. I can pump out as many as I want in one set but I've done this for decades. Happy six pack to you, this works!

I was a little sceptical that a decent ab roller could be had at this price (£16), but I've been pleasantly surprised.
It took only a minute to put together and the overall construction is very good. The grip on the wheel is great and tracks straight along the ground. The bar and grips are comfy. It's relatively small, so can be tucked away, and you can dismantle it too if needs be.
In use, it rolls along the ground smoothly and tracks straight. Using the included knee pads, I was able to go nearly full extension and not once did I feel the ab roller bind or slow. Time will tell whether it wears unevenly and notches.
I was at first disappointed that it didn't take the weight that well when operating from toes, rather than knees, but testing on other ground surfaces, I found that I needed a really hard floor (pavement) to make it work as well as on a wooden floor from the knees.
Overall, very pleased with my purchase and I have no doubt it'll last a good while.
