also works the abs and midsection, however, it can be easily
adjusted to all levels of fitness ability. The complaint that
is most common, of other ab machines that are similiar to
the Torso Tiger, is that they are too difficult for beginners.
The reisistance/assistance cords, that come

the bands create resistance and you can only stretch to the
length of the bands. Then, just like rubber bands, they support
and assist you in returning to your original position. The
tighter the bands, the more support you get. The stronger
you get, you'll find that you'll rely on the bands less and
less.

attached, making it the safer and more sensible choice. Although

have no problems, but it is important that you have enough
time to test the product, "Risk Free", at home.
