Abs Exercise #7: The Torso Track

The torso track method is ranked in the San Diego State University abdominal exercise study and is considered one of the toughest flat stomach exercises.

The torso track method does require special equipment. You will need to use the torso track machine which you will find at your local gym or you could check out the torso track slide roller here. This product is an updated version of the traditional torso track. It’s a lot more compact and cheaper but with the same effectiveness.

Here is the proper way to perform the torso track:

1. Grip the handles of the Torso Track and hold in your abs in without holding your breath.
2. To do this, brace your abs as though you were about to be hit in them.
3. Exhale your breath and glide forward as far as you can without straining. If you fall forward and collapse you have gone too far.
4. Contract your stomach muscles as you pull your body back.
5. Repeat steps 1 to 4 and complete 3 sets of 10 repetitions.

Things to remember when doing the torso track movement:

• The Torso Track is a tough exercise and it can hurt your back if you’re not careful.
• Always use slow, smooth motions while going back and forth, to reduce any strain on your back and neck.
• Throughout the exercise, stay focused on your abdominal muscles.
