GR NOTE: The Body-Solid Ab Slings are great, but we favour (due to price!) the near identical & much cheaper Maximuscle Ab Slings.

What are Body-Solid Ab (abdominal) Slings based on?

Review: How do the Body-Solid Ab Slings compare?

Having been a great lover of straight leg knee raises in my early years, the Ab. Sling makes this movement far more comfortable, and as such, easier to focus on the lower abdominals rather than worrying about trying to hang on. If you like this type of abdominal work then you really would benefit from and type of Ab Sling.

If you are happy to pay a little bit more for top quality then you'll be wanting to buy these Ab Slings affectionally called Gut Blasters by Body-Solid. Straight leg hanging raises are a great exercise and the last thing you want is to be thinking about is how to hang on to the chin bar. This is where the any Ab Sling is better than none. The cheaper alternive to these Gut Blaster slings is the Maximuscle Ab Slings which I'd be more inclined to take to a commercial gym for fear of forgetting to take them home, but for the well equiped home gym then the quality of the Body-Solid Gut Blaster Ab Slingis more than worth the extra £30 or so. After all, that's cheaper than a small tub of protein.

What Body-Solid say about their Gut Blaster Ab Slings:

"These innovative abdominal slings are the most awesome equipment ever created for working your abs. They're excellent for doing leg raises, abdominal twists and other raised abdominal work. Clip them onto any chin bar at home or the gym, for an amazing ab workout.

By not putting the pressure on the elbows or grip like normal raised ab work, you can go all out with an intensity like never before. The Ab Slings also cause the torso to stretch giving greater ab movement and therefore greater intensity.
