What are abdominal and back trainers?

Abdominal and back trainers at Fitstore24 are beginner-friendly fitness machines that are available to buy as individual machines or combination machines. They reduce the risk of injury and help you to perform exercises correctly. They are versatile fitness machines that allow you to perform a variety of exercises.

Abdominal trainers

Abdominal trainers include various devices that focus primarily on exercises that target the abdominal muscles . These can be power rollers, training wheels or abdominal trainer benches.

Back trainers

Pure back trainers are designed exclusively for performing trunk bends (so-called hyperextensions). The legs are fixed in place by a foot pad, while the hips rest on a cushion. Side support handles make it easy to get on and off.

Abdominal and back trainer

A combination of abdominal and back trainer is usually a multifunctional training bench that can be used to strengthen the core muscles all round. The corresponding cushions and locks are positioned in such a way that, in addition to exercises for a healthy back, abdominal muscle exercises such as sit-ups and crunches can also be completed without any problems.

Why are abdominal and back trainers worthwhile?

Sitting for too long and not moving enough atrophies the supporting muscles of the torso. The consequences are catastrophic: poor posture, back pain, premature wear and tear of the spine and an overall reduction in athletic performance.

With the high-quality abdominal and back trainer equipment from Fitstore24, you can:

• make your core training much more comfortable.

• ensure that you no longer neglect these muscle groups during training.

• strengthen your core muscles and automatically improve your posture.

• say goodbye to posture-related back pain.

What should you look out for when buying?

If you want to buy an abdominal and back trainer, you should choose the right device for your needs. Is your training focus more on your abdomen, back or both? Would you prefer a "loose" device, such as training wheels or power rollers, or a device that can be set up, such as a training bench?

Design and padding

Either way, your training will be more effective and comfortable if you pay attention to comfortable padding and ergonomic design. This way, you can train comfortably and with the correct posture.

Space requirements

If you opt for a piece of equipment to stand on, such as an abdominal and/or back trainer bench, be sure to pay attention to the dimensions of the equipment. If you don't want your training device to be permanently installed in your home, there are also many abdominal and back trainer devices that are foldable and can be stored away between training sessions to save space.

Settings and stability

When buying an abdominal and back trainer bench, you should also pay attention to a few additional aspects:

• Adaptive locks for the legs should be well positioned so that you can rely on maximum stability when performing the exercises.

• Good adjustment options for an abdominal and back trainer bench guarantee that the equipment can be adapted to your body size and fitness level.

• If trainers can also be adjusted to different angles and positions, you can train different muscle groups in a targeted manner.

• You should also check the maximum user weight before buying.

How do you train properly with abdominal and back trainer equipment?

There are a few things to bear in mind to ensure that your training is effective right from the start:

• Never work with momentum or jerky movements.

• Carry out each movement phase slowly and in a controlled manner.

• Each repetition should last 4 - 5 seconds.

• Your muscles should be tense during the exercise.

• Exercise regularly, preferably several times a week.

Abdominal and back trainers are devices that are not only ideal for the core muscles. They can be used to perform a wide range of exercises that also strengthen the chest, arms and buttocks.

How can you intensify your training?

Core training with abdominal and back trainers is purely self-weight training. If you want to make your exercises even more intense, you can increase the load with additional resistance. Weight plates, weight waistcoats or weight cuffs can also be used to make the training more intensive. Even resistance bands are ideal for making sit-ups, crunches or hyperextensions much more challenging.
