TRAINING YOUR LOWER ABS FIRST

Experts agree that the key to a flat tummy and sexy waistline is to train the lower abs first. Why? Because the lower ab muscles are smaller, weaker and less developed than the upper ab muscles.

If you train the upper ab muscles first, as most people do with crunches or sit-ups, then you will be too tired to train the lower ab muscles adequately. As a result, the upper ab muscles receive most of the training at the expense of the lower ab muscles. And that's why the "pooch" below the belly button is so hard to lose.

Here is a great article from RealWomensFitness.com on why it is crucial to train the lower abs first:

The Ab Coaster is the perfect product for helping you train the lower ab muscles first. The knee carriage glides along the biometrically-designed curved track.

As you progress through the entire range of motion, you go from using your lower abs to engaging your middle abs, and then your upper abs. The Ab Coaster gives you a complete abdominal workout from the bottom-up, in one single motion.

The Ab Coaster is taking abdominal training in a whole new direction by helping you to train your weaker lower ab muscles first, which experts agree is the key to getting a flat, sexy waistline.
