This is very important.1. Be certain your machine is threaded properly. Even long time sew-ers can miss a thread guide.2. Be sure your bobbin is properly installed.3. Make sure your needle is inserted properly.After going thru the three checks, you may have to adjust the tension in order to sew a good stitch. Check your manual to see how this is done. Each time you have adjusted, sew a line of stitching. You should only have to make small, slight adjustments to correct your stitch.If after what seems like an eternity of changes, you still don’t have a balanced stitch, leave your machine. Don’t even look at it for a few hours, Frame Heater maybe a day or so. Then go back and try again. It could be you are tired, frustrated or distracted. It happens to all of us.Or, it could be that your bobbin needs adjusting.
Most sewing machine manufacturers don’t want you to adjust your bobbin tension. If your manual doesn’t cover this area, then it is best to take your sewing machine in to a dealer or reputable repair man.The Two Exercise MachineThere are numerous fitness training machines on the market. And many of them are really good. One of the more recent arrivals is the Pro Form ab Glider. This newer machine is specifically aimed at providing exercises for your abdominal muscles and for strengthening your core generally with two modes of motion – arc crunches and circular burn.Some Unique FeaturesA unique feature of the Pro Form ab Glider is its ability to position the track in two directions. One is the arc crunch direction where it is firmly fixed in place in line with the handles. The other is at right angles to the handles where it is free to move so that you can perform circular burn exercises. This puts it in a class ahead of some of its rivals which are single motion machines. Designed for either arc crunches or circular burn but not both.And not only does the Pro Form ab Glider let you perform these two exercises it also lets you perform them better. The makers claim that you burn up to twice as many calories and get over 40 percent more muscle activation with their machine. This is certainly something to consider when evaluating this equipment.A Clever But Simple ConceptIn concept the Pro Form ab Glider is quite simple. And this is the case with most good ideas. When you see them for the first time it seems too easy to only have appeared now. Our most common comment is “Why wasn’t it thought of before”And what is the concept? Well the Pro Form ab Glider essentially consists of a curved ‘glider track’ that is mounted on a very secure and sturdy base. This base is essentially circular with wide spread feet for stability.
Underneath the the glider track there is another handle support bar which rises to above the track and terminates in two separate handles. Each handle having a rubberized grip to ensure a firm hold can be maintained by the user.Finally there is the ‘glider’ itself which is mounted on the glider track and is free to move along the track as you exercise. The glider is essentially a a formed cushion with two depressions where you place the lower leg (kneel) as you exercise.And then there is the feature which makes the Pro Form ab Glider ‘unique’. The glider track can be rotated through 90 degrees and fixed. Fixed either parallel to the handles for arc crunches or ‘floating’ at right angles to the handles for circular burn.Not Every Review Was Positive BUTBy and large the ab Glider has had positive reviews from users but none the less a few short comings have been noted by some. The most commented on is the fact that as delivered the ab Glider has no handle adjustment.
