In this article I want to focus on 2 highly favorite fitness items, the Shake Weight along with the Ab Circle Pro and try to answer the question of which one is correct for you?
I’m going to compare these 2 products based on a few criteria and I hope and believe that this can allow you to make the correct choice.
Price
The Ab Glider will be the much more high priced item of the two as it costs about $200 plus shipping and handling expenses. The Shake Weight is significantly cheaper at $20 plus S&H costs. However, you are likely to need 2 weights so you are looking at $40 in total.
Ease of use
Both of these machines are pretty simple to use. However, there is no doubt that the ShakeWeight is the much more simple to use item of the two. It’s considerably smaller, lighter, and doesn’t require setting up so you can get started working out with it within minutes.
Both of these items can easily be stored in a closet space or under your bed. However, the Ab Twister is bigger and bulkier so you can’t lug it around with you. The Shake Weight can even be taken on trip or even to work.
Targeted bodyparts
The Shake Weight is used to work the upper body muscle groups. It can, with slight variations be used for the biceps, triceps, shoulders, and chest muscles. The Ab Ripper X targets the abdominal muscles: central and obliques, and can be adjusted to work the thighs and buttocks. You need to decide which is much more important for you, or use both items for a full body workout.
Effectiveness
There are mixed reviews about both items. Some users say that they work and some don’t. Experts are also not unanimous about either of these products although it seems that everyone is in agreement that you need a lot more than either of these machines to get optimal results and that you shouldn’t neglect your nutrition as well as other forms of workouts.
