Ab wheel exercises
A single wheel on an axle with a grip on each side. You kneel, roll it out in front of you and pull it back. Cheap, tiny, and one of the few things that loads the abs hard enough to need a rep range rather than a time.
On its own Ab wheel drives no muscle to target - it is support, not load. It appears in 1 movements alongside other equipment.
Ab wheel loads these hardest: Abs, Obliques, Lats.
Where to find it: A small rubber wheel with two handles, usually in the basket by the mats.
