I hate my local gym(s). So. Damn. Much. I know it's just me. I'm impatient, intolerant, and generally just can't stand the douchers everywhere. So, I finally finished up my garage gym. It's not pretty, but it works. I just need a few more plates, and a really good deal on a row machine (and to clean up the other half of the garage).

I got mine from Amazon.
I've been very satisfied with it.
Ab wheels are great, definitely not a gimmick. But also dont spend more than $20 for one, its a simple piece anyone can make. Pull up Amazon and get the one with the most good reviews on it.
FWIW I have this one and have zero complaints, used it for years - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0007IS74G/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1
It came with one of those Gold's Gym kits with the doorway pull up bars and push up handles. Online, it says the whole kit is ~$50 (we bought it for $30 years ago). I'd recommend this. My gym has one and it gets used by a lot of people, but it holds up well. I don't see the point in spending $50 for one.
Just my two cents... but since you mentioned Amazon, this just so happens to be the ab wheel that I use that I purchased from them.
One of these infomercial-lookin' things.
Shitty "As Seen On TV!" marketing aside, they are excellent pieces of equipment for the price.
Just make sure you have good form. The movement is essentially a dynamic plank - meaning you still have to maintain a "hollow body"/activated core throughout the ROM.
I got a cheap 15$ one off Amazon works perfect. It's just two wheels with handles doesn't need to be a 60$ hand crafted masterpiece. Here is the one I got sometime ago
Abs are made in the gym, and revealed in the kitchen. You have to build your abs by working them, but you won't actually see them unless you diet properly and reduce your body fat %.
The best all around ab workout is done with an ab wheel.
dragonflags or one of these for the abs
Total: $204.95, plus any tax and shipping.
Note that the parallel bar station does not store as easily as you might like. It's very useful, though; you can use it for dips, bodyweight rows, L-sit training, etc. The paralette bars linked by batman1285 are probably a good substitute, though they won't give you as much clearance from the ground.
I would love this ab wheel because my top priority right now is to focus on myself and get into shape because it would make my life healthier and happier. Or anything from my exercise wishlist would be really amazing (I have a $5 jumprope on there also)!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!
/u/autumnfalln would like this iPod armband for exercising. She entered it into my "for your health" contest last week but I wasn't able to pick everyone and would love for her to have it! Here was her contest entry explaining why she wanted it: "Anyway, I really need to start exercising more. I'm a full time college student with a part time job and any spare time I have these days (which is barely any!) is just NOT spent exercising. I'd much rather relax and do nothing, haha. But I've realized I'm way more out of shape than I used to be, and you know what? I'm not gonna take that, haha.
SO, I've resolved to riding my bike more often, since that's one of my favorite things to do, and I'm going to start doing some cardio routines. Problem is, I like to listen to music when I'm doing those things, but I have absolutely nothing to put my iPod in. I don't exactly feel comfortable just having it hang out in my sweatshirt pocket- and sometimes I don't even have pockets!"
I don't need the double talk, I need to get in shape!
Okay maybe it was more than $10 but still cheap.
you'll need some equipment but I've found this the best routine.. 1-2 times a week.. Equipment needed: [ab wheel] (http://www.amazon.com/Valeo-VA2413RE-AB-WHEEL/dp/B0007IS74G/ref=cm_lmf_img_1/188-3572292-4587120), [pull up bar] (http://www.amazon.com/Iron-Gym-Total-Upper-Workout/dp/B001EJMS6K/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1413729157&sr=8-1&keywords=pull-up+bars) & [resistance band] (http://www.amazon.com/Black-Mountain-Products--Pounds-Resistance/dp/7245456267/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1413729205&sr=8-5&keywords=resistance+bands)

I've got this ab wheel that is pretty decent. There's a similar one at Dick's if you have one near you.
This is mine. It works fine- recommend.
I do push ups every morning and i use the Ab wheel every couple of days. I almost don't eat meat but a lot of "fromage blanc" (? I don't know the translation?!). Otherwise, fruits, vegetables and rice/pasta..

This is the one I use. The grips come off and the axle is a hollow rod.
Disassembles in 3 seconds.
I bought this one on Amazon and love it:

I don't know that it's "BIFL" quality necessarily but I don't know how you could break it either.
I have a similar experience to /u/Vayshen. The biggest benefit for me was the Wii Fit U telling me how many calories I needed to burn every day for X amount of days to reach my target weight, and then the Fit Meter keeping track of my steps/calories. I've been more motivated to go on short walks, take stairs instead of the escalator, ride my bike, or just park further away from my destination so I can walk a little bit. The fit meter really shows you how far just a little bit of extra effort can go.
That being said, I now use the actual software to track my progress and do Yoga three times a week now that the weather is better. The software and routines were amazing during the winter, though! I was using it 3-4 times a week without a ton of weight loss but I was feeling much better about myself. I don't have much to lose (5'11', 150 lbs) so most of the exercise I've been doing has been more mental strength about my body. I feel better physically, even if my weight has stayed the same. I've seen success stories for people with more weight (even around 200lbs at the same height, you can see great results).
I've also supplemented the software with this cheap ab roller which I do 4 sets of 10 rolls on off days, and 5 sets of 5 during my Wii Fit workouts (mainly in between workout activities. I also got a set of 10 or 15lb dumb bells that I do the same with.
I've lost about 4 pounds in the 4 months that I've had the software, but I haven't weighed myself in 3 weeks as of today. All in all, I use it more of a motivator to get active! It's been more of a mental help than anything else, especially during those cold or rainy days when I can't walk or bike.
If you did it every morning, I'm sure you would see results! I suggest doing the premade routines so you don't end up doing only the fun activities. They usually have 8 fun things and 2 aerobic type exercises. Mix that in with a short walk each day and some light weight lifting and you'll be much more tone than you are now!
Buying an ab wheel will go a long way. Seriously; something like this is 15 dollars and will seriously challenge you for a long time to come.
Leg raises and double leg thrusts will target your lower abs, and ab wheels or crunch variations will hit your upper abs well. Do one of each every day for 3 sets of 10-15 reps; 30 minutes a day is probably going to be too long to dedicate to this muscle group; if you train with serious enough intensity you should exhaust these muscles before you spend 30 minutes on them.
I use this

will help me change my body so i can be a normal person without self confidence problems :)
I'm trying to lose weight and get back into shape. This ab wheel would be very helpful.

This is awesome I have a few items on my wl. Cook book, An wheel, Ankle weight, I also have yoga pants & other assorted items on my wishlist. Thanks for the contest :) I have set a weight loss goal of 68lbs long ways to go but I will get there.
I have the cheap $10 you find on amazon, it works fine.

here are some Ideas I had saved for my home gym at an apartment (made for when it is cold or warm outside):
ProGear 1600 Power Rack w/ Bench
Fitness Gear 300 lb Olympic Weightlifting set
AmazonBasics Dip Bar
Valeo Ab Wheel
TSC Horse stall mat
Various bands
NordicTrack Commercial 1750 Treadmill

When it comes to working out, I'm a huge introvert. Being able to stay in my own house and workout is probably the only reason I've been so committed thus far.
Plus, I can get a pump whenever I have an extra minute. It's the best investment I've ever made, bar none.
Great, thank you. I'm still new to this, so some of the acronyms are unfamiliar. I found a GHD, which looks like it has the quality you recommend.
I'm not sure what a step platform is, unless you mean something like this. But I don't see how that relates to saving space on weights.
I understand an ab roller to be this. I remember using one of these once and was impressed with how much it seemed to exercise my abs. Good suggestion.
As for suspension system, would that be something like this? Would a weight rack serve this purpose?
I highly recommend getting Black Mountain Products Ultimate Resistance Bands Set with Starter Guide on Amazon. It costs about $45 with prime. Bands can be combined and can get you up to between 136-162 pounds (bands give a range of weight on amazon).
It allows you to do various workouts and has a door attachment. You can do presses and work your triceps overhead. It all comes in a small black bag that is easy to transport and store.
I am not affiliated with the company, I just really love this product. I have lost about 15lbs since January using these bands while doing P90x. Would have lost more but I had to stop halfway through to free time for exit exams coming up.
Also another great product is the Valeo Ab Wheel. While Abs are made in the kitchen, not through pure exercise...an ab wheel will work you hard and strengthen your core... not that I recommend getting down on your knees in a hotel room... ick. I don't know if I could even do push ups in one... but I am a borderline germaphobe.
You could also get a jump rope.
Weight loss simply involves expending more calories than you take it. For exercise to be fruitful you need to balance out eating too.

This and this looks fun! :3
This is also great for cooling off after a workout!
I know you asked for ab workouts that don't require equipment, but if you can afford $11 an ab wheel is your ticket to better abs.
