AB Workout Equipment: BodyBlade Pro

I starting using the BodyBlade Classic (4ft) model in physical therapy for my shoulder (bicep tendonitis).While I can't comment on using the device for overall fitness, it is a good workout for shoulder stabilization and muscle coordination.You will feel sore from it (which is a good sign).I purchased the Pro (5ft) model figuring I'd work up to more challenging use.I noticed is a bit more challenging, so bare this in mind if you're using the BodyBlade for rehab purposes, you may wish to select one of the easier models until you've worked up to it.

Product Description:
The Bodyblade is a functional tri-plane training tool designed to improve strength, balance, coordination, proprioception, power and core stabilization. Using the laws of inertia, the Bodyblade delivers progressive resistance to target both small stabilizing muscles and large prime movers. Most other systems work on the principle of the user attempting to lift a weighted item or stretch an elastic band. The Bodyblade, however, works on the opposite premise: Once the ends begin to move, inertia wants to keep them in motion and it's up to you to resist. Thus, the risk of injury through overexertion is greatly reduced. While the rate of oscillation stays the same, the workout intensifies when the amplitude, or magnitude of the flexing tips, increases. Over the course of just one minute, the ends of the Bodyblade move back and forth 270 times, and that's 270 times your muscles have to resist the movements. The resistance needed to control the blade can range from 1 to 34 pounds depending on the amplitude of the flexing tips. With Bodyblade there are no weights or elastic bands that can break. You control the intensity and acceleration of the movement, which makes it safer and more effective than other equipment. Bodyblade is technically known as a dynamic reactive instrument, which means that it matches the force you put into the blade and nothing more. As it moves back and forth four and a half times per second, it uses the principles of inertia to stimulate the muscles and make them stronger. The better conditioned the user, the more enhanced the workout. Yet since the user controls the movement, you can never injure yourself with Bodyblade. All of this is possible due to the patented technology and the inertial exercise principles built into every Bodyblade.
