Planning an abs and glutes workout around equipment? The Abs Company AbSolo covers the ab half only. It's a patented abdominal exercise machine that turns core work into a ball-throwing game, using colored touch targets and a ball return. Hamilton Home Fitness lists it as commercial workout equipment.

The AbSolo trains abs. It does not train glutes, and no honest spec sheet will tell you otherwise.
That matters because almost every search result for this phrase is a floor routine—bodyweight moves chained together, where pairing abs and glutes costs you nothing but a mat. Buy equipment instead, and the pairing breaks apart. Abs work through spinal flexion. Glutes work through hip extension. Those are opposite jobs, and one frame can't do both well.
Are the glutes part of your core? Functionally, yes—trainers group them together because both stabilize the pelvis and lumbar spine. But grouping two muscles in a program is not the same as grouping them in a machine, and that's where buyers get caught.
You buy it separately. On a commercial floor, the AbSolo handles core and something like the Glute Lift Elite handles hips—a seated hip raise with a belt across the pelvis. Two stations, two patterns, one complete circuit.
Does an ab machine burn belly fat? No. Targeted training builds the muscle underneath; it doesn't decide where your body loses fat. Anyone promising otherwise is selling you something.
Here's the thing nobody puts on a product page: the ab machine is usually the loneliest piece of equipment in the building.
It's not a build problem. It's a boredom problem. People do their sets, feel nothing exciting, and quietly stop programming it. The AbSolo's actual differentiator isn't superior recruitment—it's that users throw a ball at a lit target and forget they're doing core work. The Abs Company built engagement into the mechanism, and engagement is what keeps a station earning its floor space in year two.

Read that footprint twice. 84 inches is seven feet of length before anyone stands up, and the listed dimensions cover the frame alone — not the room a user needs to sit, load, and throw. Ceiling clearance above the 70-inch frame matters too, since the target is overhead. Measure the actual space, not the spec.

A strong fit if:
Look elsewhere if:
Machine | Movement | Best for | Listed price |
|---|---|---|---|
AbSolo | Sit-up plus ball throw | AB work users enjoy | $3,359 |
Ab Coaster CTL | Guided bottom-up curl | High-traffic floors | $2,099 |
Glute Lift Elite | Seated hip raise | The glute half | $4,304 |
The decision rule is simple. Pick the Ab Coaster if you want a guided, quiet, low-footprint core station. Pick the AbSolo if adherence is your real problem and you have the room. Browse the Abs Company machine lineup to compare the full range.
Does the AbSolo train glutes at all?
No. It's an abdominal exercise machine, and the movement is a core pattern. Pair it with a dedicated glute machine if you need both.
Can you train abs and glutes together?
Yes, in one session—just not on one machine. Most facilities run them as back-to-back stations.
Are the slam balls included?
Yes. Two 6-lb and two 8-lb slam balls ship with the unit, so nothing extra is needed to start.
Will the AbSolo fit through a standard door?
The crate measures 68"L x 30"W x 24"H, so its 30-inch width clears a standard 32-inch interior door. Plan the route for a 396 lb crate.
What is AbSolo's user weight limit?
It isn't published on this listing. Confirm it with us before ordering if you need a documented capacity.
Can I buy it as part of a circuit?
Yes. The AbSolo appears in multi-machine ab circuits, and multi-unit orders are quoted directly rather than priced off the shelf.
Is warranty coverage included?
Warranty terms aren't listed on this page. Ask for them in writing on your quote before you commit.
