Do any of the ab machines on the market work?

Hi Laura. To answer your question as it’s posed, I’d have to say “yes,” some of these machines do work. To me though the better question is “do they work better than other (non-machine) options?” To me, the answer is “no,” or at least “not enough to warrant the extra expense.” As you know, there are so many exercise options for our core that do NOT entail using a machine, that there really is not much need for the additional expense. With a little creativity, we can exercise and condition our core, and more specific to your question, our abs without the need for a machine.
