Is Ab-Celerator a Good Workout? 

Ab-solutely! Ab-Celerator improves your coordination, stability, and core strength.  

AB-CELERATOR uses the Resistance Runner as a training tool to provide resistance in multiple directions, which allows the participants to perform a variety of functional as well as sports-specific movements. The focus is on control throughout the entire exercise, which improves core strength, coordination, and stability. 

• Strength: Resistance bands can strengthen muscles by increasing the time they spend under tension. Working under tension throughout the entire movement recruits more muscle fibers to maintain stability, creating more strength! 

• Control and Coordination: Resistance bands can be pushed and pulled in nearly any direction without relying on gravity for resistance, so participants develop motor control and coordination, which can prevent injury as well. 

• Core Stability: Controlling the motion through resistance of the bands requires good core strength. As the band stretches farther, the resistance increases. Participants must use their core strength to stabilize themselves and control the movement to prevent a “snap back” effect. 

How Difficult is Ab-Celerator? 

5/10 Attention Abs! Any fitness level will find the Resistance Runner belt fun and effective. The simple drill-based exercises targeting core strength are manageable for everybody. Upping the ante with hard, harder, and hardest exercise options throughout class allows everyone to feel challenged and successful. “I regret that ab workout,” said no one ever! 

How Long Is Each Class?

What do I need to Bring?
