Welcome to “REV ABS”… REV ABS… Say it louder!

You could do Ab crunches all day… and you could still be getting ripped off!

Memorable phrases like: “He doesn’t drink a six pack… he wears it!”… make me wonder if they have real professional writers scripting this stuff.  I want to know if I drink a six pack will REV ABS also get me drunk?

I’m just saying!

In my time as a Fitness Professional I have heard every “made” up phrase or “fitness word” to try to get you to think that an info-mercial fitness product is revolutionary.

Just because there’s some new made up words, it doesn’t necessarily mean that you should go run out and buy this “Rev Abs” program.  Some of my favorite made up words are:

1. Ab-centrics.. obviously… because the Abs are a central part of this program.  Wow, that’s a stretch!

2. Upper flexion – of what? Torso… chest, back, head or just for the fuck of it!

3. Lower flexion – I’m now starting to piss my pants!

4. … and before I really lose control of my bowels… “DOUBLE FLEXION”.  You would have to me the hottest “Personal Trainer” in New York City to come up with that … absolute BULLSHIT!

So is “REV ABS” a “Total Body Workout” ( like every stupid ass program out there) or is it “Ab-centric”… now I’m confused.

You tell me after you watch the video below:

Craig Ballantyne always has such cool ways to work your body. We both kinda come from the same place when it comes to finding creative ways to work your body hard.

In today’s Wednesday Workout Tips portion of askROCCO Blog… I direct your attention to my friend Craig Ballantyne’s three favorite ab exercises… even though he gives several variations and makes it more like… 10 ab exercises. Who’s counting any way.

If you have ever done the ab wheel… you know it’s hard. If you haven’t try it then get back to me.

The two exercises he suggests… the Ball Jack Knife and Cross Body Mountain Climber are definitely some of my favorites as well. Watch the video of Craig below and try out these exercises.

…Well maybe not as stupid as the Hula Chair.

Please watch this video about the AB Solo. This thing reminds me of going to Dave & Busters…but oh that’s right you’re in a gym playing hoops will a medicine ball. Is this what the fitness industry has come down to…having to create a game like atmosphere to get people to do something. What’s next…collect tickets and win the prize on the “Big Prize” shelf… or maybe Skeeball for shoulder workouts…and we can always bring back “Ring the Bell”. I was really good at that. Go to: http://www.absolo.com/index.html and try to find a price for me, because I couldn’t find one.

If this is the revolution in abdominal fitness I feel sorry for the fitness industry.
