Don't Buy This

Every year, a group of big girls decides to lose weight the easy way.
Since I've given up on trying to help these women, many have decided to buy the Ab Circle Pro.
The gadget looks like fun but it is not engineered to accommodate those it is seeking to assist.
(It is a good concept - only poorly made.)

I've had four women tell me that they now have back problems after using this machine.
Two have told me that the knee pads hurt their legs and that the handle bars are flimsy.
(This coming from women hovering around 200 pounds.)
But these women failed to understand that the machine was made for a 5'2" 109lb woman - not a 5'9" 213 lb woman.
That the equipment is meant to be used in a controlled motion.
That if someone already has weak abs - throwing 100lbs of ass in a circular motion is not a good idea.
That their big asses will act in the same manner as a pendulum.

After past years of training these women, cooking healthy meals for these women (Which they never ate - instead eating some good old fashioned Soul Food.), and even stretching and messaging these women - this group is on their own.
