Abs?

roulette.russe · 11-24-2008

Alright, I do lots of exercise (everyday) and sports a couple of times a week, but I just don't like doing sit ups (and can't even do them right, when I try!!!), and I'm starting to be really obsessed with my belly.
It's like that fat is neeeever gonna go away!!! Makes me kind of depressed...

Do you know any good exercises, more motivating than sit ups?
Or have any of you used machines that are fun to use and not excessively expensive?

Heeeelp me!

I have the best abs excercise ever, and one that works.
1) Sit on a Yoga mat
2) Place the Xerdisc right behind your bottom

3) Lie down (so that the disc is under your lower back)
4) With your feet on the ground but knees up (get the picture?) begin to do sit ups

I used to train with a personal trainer and this was one of the best tricks she tought me. i hope it works.
You can buy the disc at: Xerdisc™ - Balance Disc

There are many more exercises you can do, they're all explained on their website.

I have one of those theraputic hula hoops and hooping works for me and I have fun doing it.

Therapeutic hula hoops? Can you show me what that looks like?

Daisy, I own the Xerdisc and it works wonders but you have to be consistent.

OK, I went on the Xerdisck website and it really interests me, so I'll buy it and I'll use it everyday. I'll post again in a few months to say what I think about it.
Thanks for the idea!

Great! I'll keep my fingers crossed

I hope it works as well for you as it did for me.The cool think about the disc is that it can be used for other exercises as well.

So, anyone ready to report on their results? I started using it last week and feel a lot better. It will probably be a while before I see some serious results but I'll post back.

I have that disc but in green

I honestly haven't used it even once, but I'm glad it works for some of you.

roulette.russe, I was wondering if you've seen any progress with the disc?
