I bought this item as a Christmas gift.The receipient enjoys it immensely as both a Roman Chair style machine and a sit-up bench.It is solidly constructed and has adjustable legs and height.The cushions allow the user to relax while using the machine to stretch the back muscles.My only complaint is that the assembly directions provided only showed exploded diagrams of the product, and no simple step by step directions.This made the gift incredibly frustrating until we finally figured out how to put it together.Click Here to see more reviews about: Best Fitness BFHYP10 Ab Board and Hyper Extension Bench
Product Description:
Take your daily core workout and turn it up a few degrees with the Best Fitness BFHYP10 total core trainer. Fusing two of the most popular core workouts--ab crunches and back hyper-extensions--the trainer keeps your most important core muscles strong and tight. The BFHYP10 is outfitted with a six-position hyper-extension support that lets you work comfortably from a standing or angled position, along with a three-position lower leg support. Together, the supports help you build the abdominal muscles that are crucial to maintaining lumbar spine strength and fortify the back muscles to create a healthy and pain-free lower back. The stronger both sets of muscles are, the more support and stability they provide.
The Best Fitness total core trainer lets you vary the starting position of your workouts between 15, 20, and 25 degrees, letting you design the most effective core workout for your situation. The simple pull of a pin makes it possible to control the angle of the bench to increase or decrease the intensity of each session. Other details include 6- and 4-inch high-density foam roller pads; 1.75-inch upholstered bench pads; and rubber-gripped positioning handles. Requiring minimal assembly, the core trainer measures 29 by 32 by 49.5 inches (W x H x D) and carries a three-year warranty.
