The Ab Circle Pro is a great device to help you lose that ugly belly fat and those sagging love handles and give you those taut, toned abs that you’ve always dreamed of. It is a new piece of equipment for the home exercise market that lifts you up from the floor and makes combining your ab exercises with your cardio workouts easier and more effective than you ever thought possible.
To lose weight safely and correctly while toning and tightening all your major muscle groups, there are several components of exercise that must be combined. The first is cardiovascular exercise which is described as sustained rhythmic exercise using large muscle groups and carried out for a period of at least 20 minutes three to four times a week.
Cardio should be at an intensity that makes you sweat, gets you warm and makes you slightly breathless. There are two types of mistakes people make in cardiovascular exercise; one is not working hard enough – I see folk all the time in the gym sitting on the exercise bike reading a magazine; if you can read a magazine your heart and lungs are not working hard enough!
The second mistake is performing cardio at too high an intensity for too long at a time (as this puts your body under stress) and then not training again for several days. You will lose any benefit gained if you do not do another workout within 96 hours.
The best and most effective way to exercise is to take the middle path; walk, pedal or swim at a moderate intensity, enough to make you slightly short of breath and give you a warm glow, for at least 20 minutes three times a week; every other day would be perfect. This exercise alone can greatly reduce your risk of early heart disease and some cancers.
Cardiovascular exercise on its own is not enough for optimum health and weight loss, as you need to also do exercises to overload your main muscles in order to keep them strong and functioning correctly. Strength training does not mean big burly men in leotards lifting huge weights; it simply means exercises using hand weights or body weight to challenge your muscles and make them stronger, especially as you grow older.
Just as important as cardio and strength training is core training to keep your deep abdominal and postural muscles strong, which also will shape your stomach and make you look much taller, as you will stand up straight rather than stooping. Pilates exercises and most forms of yoga are perfect for this.
If you use your Ab Circle Pro as part of your regular workouts, you will be well on the way to correctly combining the principles of fitness for increased health, strength and a perfect shape, as the Ab Circle Pro combines cardio without abdominal and oblique toning to help you shape your body to the look you’ve always dreamed of.

I am just starting on my abcircle. I have been on it everyday for about 5minutes for nearly 2 weeks. I find my shoulders are hurting the most. Is this normal to start of with ? Also at this stage i am not seeing any real results. Im not dieting but I also have a cross trainer which Im on for 30minutes a day !
If you don’t change your diet, you will probably not see any weight loss. Weight loss is about burning more calories than you consume. If you are not dieting, maybe you are only burning the amount of calories you need to maintain your weight and not lose weight.
