Strength and Definition Without Sacrificing Flex..
on February 18, 2015
Posted by: Ocular
from Connecticut, United States
As a martial artist I am constantly looking for ways to stay fit, lean, and strong, without sacrificing flexibility and tendon conditioning. I avoid developing unwanted muscle for the fact it slows me down. After trying everything under the sun, I just couldn't find something to give me exactly what I wanted out of my core and upper body workouts. I spend about 3 to 4 hours a day training everything from cardiovascular and muscle workouts to kung fu and tendon conditioning. I was at a store when I picked up a generic ab wheel for $7 and I fell in love with it. However, after a couple months it became evident that I was limited to the exercises I could do, and wished there was a way to utilize the same concept for the upper body, low and behold, I was watching an episode of Kung Fu Quest when I saw for not even a second someone using what looked like ab wheels with two wheels on end, doing chest flys. I knew in that moment I had to find them. After a rigorous 1 second Google search I discovered the Core Wheels. So how do they work? Amazing. When people ask me should I get them, I ask them what their intention is. I don't believe that the same things work the same for everyone, so you have to be specific on what you wish to accomplish. This gives you an intense lower and upper body workout, with minimal equipment, and maximum efficiency. My abs and chest were becoming very sculpted after a month of using this product with the suggested workouts that come with the interactive phone app. I have so much functional strength and definition, without sacrificing my flexibility. If you ask me who these are for? I would say someone looking for a full core and upper body workout that gives you tone, and functional strength. These won't make you a body builder, but they will help you gain functional strength and maintain flexibility. Point is, these are incredible, and for someone like myself, it's the perfect thing to throw into my already scrutinizing work outs. Warning* Start small if you're just getting them, if you've never worked out before, I advise using your own body weight and calisthenics before advancing to these. But I highly recommend the Core Wheels to everyone! Flash forward 6 months later... these things got my core ripped and strong. I use them every morning for about 40 minutes. I do 5 sets of the what I have now deemed the Core Crusher. It consists of:
(5 Sets) No breaks, continuous flow.
Ab Rollout Straight x10
Ab Rollout Side x10 (5 to right, 5 to left)
Lateral Twists (Thread the Needle) x20 (each side)
Crunch x20
Feet Rollout x15
Superman’s x 10 (Alternate each side)
Plank Hold (1-2 minutes)
Ab Rollout Straight x10
Ab Rollout Side x10 (5 to right, 5 to left)
Lateral Twists (Thread the Needle) x20 (each side)
Crunch x20
Feet Rollout x15
Superman’s x 10 (Alternate each side)
Plank Hold (1-2 minutes)
I simply started with a recommended workout and modified it as I got stronger.
Bravo SKLZ, you guys nailed it with these!

Much better than an ab wheel. My core was on fire!! Tried a plank to push up move and they worked perfectly. They are very light weight and I can fit them into a small bag for carrying!

GREAT CORE TRAINER!

COREwheels are an updated and improved version of the AKROwheels, which I also own. The AKROwheels were a nice invention; although, they were notorious for their design flaws, which would often result in one or both wheels breaking off. I am happy to report the COREwheels are of a much more durable construction!
The advantage COREwheels offers is the independent movement of each arm, as opposed to the single wheel design of other products. Since each unit has a wheel placed at both ends of each handgrip, one can effectively train not only their core, but their arms, shoulders, chest, and hips as well.
Although this item is recommended for individuals of all fitness levels, it is probably best to have at least some training experience, as well as, some upper body and core strength for the most effective results.

This product rocks my abs!

I use these daily to strengthen my core. I used to do 30 minute Pilates workouts but COREwheels have replaced that with a more efficient routine in 5. The versatility rivals a pilates Reformer - for a fraction of the cost. Love these!

Well-made set of core muscles exercise wheels. Allows for stimulating more of your chest, back and shoulders that a single wheel.
