Revoflex Xtreme Abdominal Trainer

The Revoflex Xtreme abdominal trainer is a rollout device that trains several muscle groups at once. Five minutes a day, six levels of difficulty, and it folds into a bag.

How the Revoflex Xtreme abdominal trainer works

You brace against the handles and extend forward, then use assisted bidirectional power technology to help you back. That assistance is what makes rollout work accessible to beginners, since the hardest part of the movement is the return.

Because your whole trunk has to stay rigid throughout, your chest, back, arms and shoulders all work alongside the abdominals rather than watching.

Six training levels

Six levels let you tailor the difficulty to where you actually are rather than where a video assumes you are. Start at level one, and move up when the last few reps stop being hard.

The device covers more than forty different exercises, so you can also change what you train rather than only how hard.

What it defines

Upper, middle and lower abdominals, plus the obliques down the sides. Training all four is what produces a defined waist rather than just a stronger front.

It also develops the chest, back, arms and shoulders in the same movement, which is unusual for a core device and the main reason to choose one over a plain ab wheel.

Five minutes a day, properly

Five minutes is a real claim only if the reps are controlled. Extend slowly, keep your lower back flat, and come back under control rather than snapping up.

Three sets of ten at your current level, five days a week, is a complete core programme. Move up a level when that stops being difficult.

Who it suits

Anyone training at home, anyone who travels, and anyone who wants core work without a gym. It is also a sensible starting point for people who find a plain ab wheel too hard.

Pair it with our gym accessories, or the yoga accessories range for a mat to work on.

Common questions

Is the Revoflex Xtreme abdominal trainer suitable for beginners?

Yes. Level one plus the assisted return is what makes it accessible from day one.

Will five minutes a day really work?

Five minutes of controlled, difficult reps does more than twenty minutes of sloppy ones. Quality is the whole point here.

Will it give me visible abs?

It builds and defines the muscle. Whether it shows depends mostly on body fat, which comes down to diet and overall activity.

Is it portable?

Yes. It is compact enough to take anywhere, which is why it suits people who travel.
