Hello. I am looking to buy an Ab Machine for home use and could use some help. I thought maybe the Gym Rats board here could steer me in the right direction. There seems to be a lot out there....from "Seen on TV" models that sound almost alike, to high-end equipment that uses weight plates. I don't want to spend a ton of money, but am willing to pay for something that is well made and useful. My requirements are that the machine have some back support, is easy to assemble and will fold away for storage. I've seen the most info-mercials for that Ab Lounge thingie, but not sure if it's a piece of junk or not. I am pretty short (5'1" and weigh 130) so am looking for something that would accommodate "shorties"! If you know of a website that provides good reviews on equipment, all the better.
Also, while I am asking, I am looking for a stationary bike for home use. I have read that the recumbent type, although more expensive, provides more back support. Any suggestions on that?
Thanks in advance for any info!
