Is there really a use for all the abs work out contraptions?
As far as I know boxers strengthen and tighten their abdominals by doing loads of situps with different configurations. If there’s one ‘profession’ where you need rock hard abs it’s boxing. So why are there so many abs machines advertised. Are they better than any of the variations of the traditional situp?
No, not really. They exist to sell ab contraptions. Your intuition about situps is pretty much on the mark. Work your core as well as your abs, though, to get a balanced workout. Good old fashioned body-weight stuff does the most good in the least time.
And don’t forget your cardio.
