What's the best home machine for working abs?

[GrinchLS1]

I do 10 minutes of crunches every night, but is there a good machine I should get to help? Do those chairs with the wrap around handle-bars do anything (ya know, the crap you see on TV)?

abs come from diet, not working them

best home machines:
swiss balls,
decline bench
chinup bar (for leg raises)

and your lungs.

i just use a decline bench. you can hold weights.

like diamond said diet is the key

so i guess its the same with biceps or pecs or any other muscle group.........you dont train them.......you just diet down so you can see them.

yes granted you wont see your abs unless you have low bodyfat levels...........but come on people you need to work them.

if not for looks.......but for stabalization in other exercises like standing presses or squats etc

Use the floor.

the floor is probably the worst place to do sit ups.

the abs are best worked from a declined angle.....thats why i suggested a decline bench or a swiss ball.

working the abs from the floor would be like doing 1/4 bicep curls
