Great workout, design is flawed though
I bought this product about a year ago and it's served me well, great gains with 6 sets of 6 reps, currently lifting 40 and 60 pounds. It can be uncomfortable on your back if you try to lift too much weight, so be careful with regards to over lifting. Most importantly in the design is the bars that hold the weights you're trying to lift. They're made way too small. I had to take off the rubber protector to fit on all the weight I needed on both the bottom and top section, and there's still not much room to put on what I'm going to need in the future. If you're serious about lifting and not a small guy, I'm 5'6' and 120, look for something that can hold more weight.

Great
I bought this for my home gym, and I have to say it is a great piece of equipment. Set wasn't the easiest since it was a two box set. It really works well and a great addition to my gym. It supports a great deal of weight and repeated usage. Great for serious workouts or just to stay toned.

Ab Bench Recumbent
First off, I purchased this for my small aerobics room and it does not take up much space , even with the weight arm swinging through the air in the back of the unit. Secondly holding on to the upper levers and pulling forward and down flexes your upper abs very well and with enough repetitions you will get a great burn. Lastly I do not use the leg lifting part at all , I don't care for the angle or the fit, however I believe the GAB300 is still more than worth the money only using it for my upper abs. For me it is safe , fun and convenient.
