Abdominal muscle training, also known as abdominal trainer, is a kind of fitness equipment mainly used to exercise abdominal muscles. According to different shapes, functions and usage methods, abdominal fitness equipment can be divided into many types, including:
1, common abdominal wheel
Insert an iron pipe into the middle of the wheel, and then put "handles" on both sides of the iron pipe. This is a relatively basic abdominal exerciser. It is cheap, simple in structure and not easy to be damaged, and is more suitable for people with a certain fitness foundation.
2. Rebound the abdominal wheel
Springs are installed in the rebound abdominal wheel, and the springs are respectively connected with the wheel body and the shaft part of the abdominal wheel. When the abdominal wheel is pushed forward, the internal spring tightens the energy storage, which can produce a certain "braking" resistance to prevent muscle strain due to rapid extension; When the abdominal wheel is pulled back, the energy released by the internal spring can produce a certain resilience, which helps us to withdraw the abdominal wheel smoothly and easily.
3. Multi-wheel abdominal wheel
This kind of abdominal wheel consists of four or six wheels. Multiple wheels can increase balance and help stabilize the core, and some of them also have rebound function.
4. Split abdominal wheel
Also known as two-wheeled abdominal wheel, the wheel is divided into two parts, and each grip has a set of wheels, which need to be pushed by both hands when used. This kind of abdominal wheel is flexible to use, and can be pushed directly, sideways or horizontally, and can exercise muscles in different parts; The disadvantage is that it is not easy to control and it is more difficult to use weak arm strength. Blind use may lead to injury and is more suitable for advanced training.
5, disc belly wheel
It consists of a pallet platform and universal wheels. The universal wheel is installed under the platform and usually adopts split design. Compared with the split-type abdominal wheel, the disc-type abdominal wheel is more flexible to use, which can not only complete more movements, but also put your knees or feet on it for exercise to achieve better exercise effect.
6. One-handed belly wheel
This abdominal chakra is mainly composed of two independent parts. When in use, each hand holds a part to cooperate with the training, and the whole process is controlled by the core strength, which requires higher strength of the core muscles, chest, shoulders and arms.
Second, what kind of abdominal wheel fitness effect is good?
Among many types of abdominal chakras, which one is better is still inconclusive, because everyone's exercise needs and physical condition are different, and the suitable abdominal chakras will be different:
1. For beginners, people who have never been exposed to abdominal chakras and have no fitness foundation, ordinary abdominal chakras are more difficult to use, let alone the later advanced version. It is recommended to choose rebound abdominal wheel or multi-wheel abdominal wheel. Although the exercise effect is slightly worse, it is safer and easier to use.
2, for ordinary exercise, friends who exercise at home, ordinary abdominal chakras are better, not easy to damage, do not occupy space, and can easily exercise at home.
3. For fitness enthusiasts, it is more suitable to use advanced abdominal wheels, such as split abdominal wheels, disc abdominal wheels, one-handed abdominal wheels, etc., which are all suitable for them to carry out higher intensity exercise.
