How does the
Gymstick work?
GYMSTICK is a fitness tool designed to simplify and
effectively combine cardiovascular, muscular endurance and flexibility
training. GYMSTICK is a new and innovative fitness tool that combines stick-
and resistance band exercise into one effective workout.
The product consists of a Gymstick, a Gymstick bag and a 32
page exercise manual. The tool itself consists of a stick with foam grips and
two exercise bands (rubber tubings) with fabric straps.
Attach the resistance bands to both ends of the stick by using
the attachment mechanism and set the loops under your feet. Now you are ready
to start working out with GYMSTICK! You can do hundreds of different
exercises and combination movements. You can increase the resistance quickly
by rolling the resistance bands around the stick. If you want to decrease the
resistance, just let the bands loose from around the stick.
Gymstick is available in four different resistance levels,
depending on Your fitness level. The resistance varies from 1–30 kilos
according to the resistance level and whether you roll the bands around the
stick or not. The resistance levels are colour-coded: Green (light): for
rehabilitation exercise and exercise for the elderly. Blue (medium): for
women and junior athletes. Black (strong): for fit women, young athletes and
men. Silver (extra strong): for fit men and athletes. Gold (super strong):
for strong men and athletes.
You can increase the resistance by rolling the band clockwise
around the stick. You can adjust the resistance quickly even when exercising.
The smooth control of resistance allows you to exercise effectively.
Do not roll the exercise bands around the grips and do not
stretch the exercise band over four times its original length when doing the
exercises. By doing this you prevent the band from suffering damage and its
life will also be prolonged. You should store your Gymstick in a Gymstick bag
to protect the tool from direct sun light and other damage.
The novelty of Autumn 2005 will be the telescopic Gymstick for
exercise at home and on trips. The Telescopic Gymstick fits in a normal
suitcase so it is easy to take along when you travel and want to keep fit
during your trip. You can always use the stick and bands separately as well.
The combination of the exercise stick and resistance bands is
a new way of combining muscular endurance, flexibility training and core
strength. This allows you to improve your fitness level safely. GYMSTICK is
easy and safe to use because it is designed for all age groups and fitness
levels.
