Wayne Conner,
The most often asked question at any fitness center is what machine or what exercise can I do for my waist. I believe the Super Abdominal Machine is a vital component in shaping the waist area along with proper nutrition, aerobic exercise, and some weight training. The advantages to the S.A.M. is that it is safe, effective, and requires little time. The pelvic tilt motion required to perform the exercise is excellent in strengthening the abdominals and also is healthy for the lumbar disc. When the spine moves the disc are lubricated and that is a good thing. Range of motion is also maintained or increased in the lumbar spine during and after using the S.A.M. I prefer using the S.A.M. now over the traditional abdominal exercises for my clients and on myself. The concept behind the machine is pulling the abdominal muscles inward while strengthening the whole core area. Consider the S.A.M. if you train athletes, common exercisers, or even therapy patients.
