i got mine from walmart.com..just a little over 200 shipped.
if you order this one, you'll need a few tools, as some bolts need to be grinded to fit the nuts right, etc

yeah, get that one instead. forgot about that..might cost a little more, but probably worth it
i thought this walmart one was going to be crap but it's pretty decent. not the most stable thing in the world; it rocks a little when i do reverse hypers, but i'm guessing almost anything else would too

why not reinforce it with wood hehe. also throw some plates on the sides, or lean plates against the sides.

today i did:
deads: 135x5, 165x6, 165x4, 165x5, 165x5, 165x5
i felt no pain in these, and my form was decent. im going to bump it up 10 lbs per week to get back to where i was.
reverse hypers: a couple sets of a couple reps. first problem was the board sliding all over after every rep. the more important problem is that i can not breathe AT ALL while laying on that board. it really inhibits me from getting anything out of these reverse hypers
good mornings supersetted w/ DB saxon side bends: 2 sets of 10 w/ good mornings. couple sets of 8 or so for the side bends
glute/ham raises w/ feet under a couch: this worked like crap. every rep hurt on the bottom when i catch myself. i tweaked my wrist on DE bench day doing "close" grip benches. by close i mean hands still on the knurling.
split eagle weighted situps: these were.....ok...i didn't feel them in my abs until the last set. i did 3 sets
did i miss anything? i kept the rest intervals to 45 seconds or less to start working on muscular endurance, which i most definately need more of. should i not do that in the future?
goddamn reverse hyper rig

Remember that email that I sent you about doing the reverse hypers and how you needed to have STRONG abs that could push out the entire time? You need stronger abs. My abs used to do the same thing and I could not breathe.

when i lay the boards across the rack for reverse hypers,i put a folded towel or 2 down, it helps alot. You could even buy some cheap foam and duct tape it around the boards.

what else can i do for abs?
so far i have:
split eagle sit ups
standing band crunches
kneeling band crunches
my abs aren't even sore today. it's my obliques that are. btw, i feel no 'bad' back pain today, which is awesome. just nice and sore
