Yes, there is an "exercise" sheet it comes with and shows how situps can be done. If you put the back rest in the full decline position, then you can sit on the seat, wedge your ankles in and do some situps. It's tough because your back doesn't really hit anything - tighten your abs to stay horizontal and then back up.

It contracts your muscles, which can appear to be expanding. The Ab belt works all of your muscles at one time, unlike regular crunches which will only work one area at a time. I hope this helps.

Yes and no, depending on how thick of a door frame you have and how much of a swing type motion you plan on doing during a pull up. I have used it both ways and have had no issue. If you plan on doing inverted crunches I would recommend using the clip.

I am not sure what a reverse crunch is. You can Google exercises that can be done with this bench but keep in mind that the length of the bench is much less than a gym sized ab bench so you are somewhat limited in what you can use it for.

For abs I lie down with my feet hooked under the leg bar and do sit ups. For the gluteus I would use the strap behind the heel and do straight leg pull backs. I haven't done a lot of work on this and I am certainly not an expert.

This is not the right thing for it. This is a binder and you need an abdominal splint along with a lifestyle change to bring your abs back together. This definitely won't work.

Yes, there is room for abdominal workouts. Your back will be supported by the trampoline mat and your legs will hang off the frame. You can perform a variety of sit-up routines to help strength your core. You may want to check out our sample workouts on YouTube!

I think if you wanna deeper workout for the abs ,the curved bar is for like you squeeze in your stomach at the same time you lift up both legs,I use the curve bars to do the women push-up,it makes me use my imagination for a better and more fun workout.

They can't "build" stomach muscles. If you are new to working out, they can be used to incorporate many more exercises into your workout routine. If the bands help keep you active and burning calories along with a sensible diet, then you will be able to "see" your stomach muscles. If you are somewhat advanced, then you can get creative and assist in "strengthening" the abdominal and core muscles, but you must be careful with the bands.

I don't think so. The ball still helps you sit up straight, which strengthens your back muscles, which are part of your core. You might not get glamorous abs from this chair alone but I still think it's a great tool and helps people with sedentary job get at least a little movement in during the day.

Mainly used for weightlifting exercises (squats, deadlifts) to support your back and abdomen. Some also use it during heavy lifting at work etc. for support as mentioned earlier.

No amount of ab exercises will burn stomach fat. But if you strengthen your obliques (your sides), and burn that fat (through diet), then you will be good to go. You can use the roller to roll out at an angle to hit one side harder.

I would say crunches and sit ups no. When you pull yourself up you change the balance and the table rises with you

Depends on what you mean. You can tighten your core muscles, but not like exercises made just for that.

Yes you can do crunches and sit-ups. And if you can find a way to weight your feet back extensions.

Ha! I would say it very well could be used as an arm exercise if you need to work on motion post-surgery. It absolutely should not be used if the purpose is for strength training of any kind. This has a very fluid motion.
