ABMATSit Up Mat- The Original Abdominal and Core Trainer Mat for Full Range of Motion Sit ups, Crunches and Ab Workouts Black Vinyl

This is a serious mat, it’s made to last. I have used it one week and it’s changed my whole workout. It’s worth it to pay more in this because of the quality.

I had heard great things about the Abmat but am usually the last one to believe the hype. I work out often and can do countless situps so I really didn't think this would do anything for me. I was wrong. The Abmat fits perfectly in the small of your back to get complete abdominal extension and lower back support. Sure, you could get the same effects from several other products...but they cost WAY more. The Abmat is awesome and I use it every day. Constructed well and had grip strips on the bottom so it will not slide while you exercise. It also comes with a workout plan for beginners.

Great tool for sit-ups. Gives lower back support and back comfort when doing sit-ups and even more effective with a medicine ball.

I've used these Abmats at my local Crossfit gym for years, so knew they were a good product. I bought this one for home. It came with a simple and useful insert adding a number of new abdominal exercises to what I knew already. I enjoy having it, and use it regularly. It is very effective for not only safe situps which do not strain my back, but also for strengthening the side oblique muscles and other abdominal areas. From my experience with them at the gym, I can attest that they last a long time without deterioration. You need take no more than 5 minutes for a very effective abdominal tune-up.

This is the best AbMat on the market. I previously bought another make/model based on customer reviews, and assumed that they would be equivalent. Definitely not so. There is a major difference in firmness between this mat and the other one, with this one clearly superior. It is tall and supportive, but gives just enough so you're not see-sawing across the top of it. Quality materials and construction. This is found at my local CrossFit gym, so I have seen first hand that it can stand up to frequent use. I would highly recommend this over alternatives.

I bought this along with the Ab Carver Pro when my regular ab routine got boring. Seriously thought this would be a waste of money because it looks so simple. Well i was wrong. As soon as i performed a couple of crunches using this thing, my abs started to burn...a good burn. My crunch count has gone down when using this thing because i know it targets the ab muscles and won't allow you to do a crunch with bad form. This is how a crunch should be done. Good buy, but i think it's a little bit overpriced.

I bought one of these a few years ago when I was doing CROSSFIT. My neighbor gave it a try the other day, and fell in love with it and asked me to order her one ASAP. She has lower back pain, and says that not only does this do great sit ups, it helps to stretch her back. She also liked the booklet that came with it, showing her additional exercises. I've loved it for years -- its on the floor in my living room, easy to crank out a few sit ups every now and then.

This is a great piece of gear to expand your workout. It's small, so I carry it in my duffle bag and carry it around in my car. No matter where I go, I can use this for my workout. Most gyms don't have it either, so I can bring it in if I really feel like getting that ab mat situp! Made in the USA, it's well-made. I expect it will last me for a long, long time. For anyone looking to add a little something extra to their workout--this is it!
