Every so often a new product comes along which revolutionises the way we exercise - the Bodyblade® is one of those products. Using oscillation to generate up to 270 muscle contractions per minute, this amazing devise is based on simple physics that I assure you will change the way you train. But don't take my word for it, try these exercises for yourself. TIP: The idea is to get the Bodyblade oscillating but keeping your body relatively still by switching on the core stabilisers.
In a prone position, face down, and hold the Bodyblade in front so you can see the flat edge. Move in a push/pull motion with either one or both hands at a time. This exercise will really challenge the entire upper back, shoulders and arms.
Assume a partial crunch position with heels lightly touching the floor. Hold the Bodyblade with both hands so you can see the flat edge. Move the Bodyblade back and forth. Feel the abdominals, chest, back and arms working to maintain stability.
In a standing position, hold the Bodyblade vertically with both hands and the narrow edge facing you. Move the Bodyblade left and right in front of you. The entire body is challenged with this one!
Hold the Bodyblade vertically in front with both hands so you can see the narrow edge. Bend knees slightly and move Bodyblade left to right at a 45-degree angle to the floor. The thighs, gluts and upper body will get a great workout with this exercise.
Assume a wide stance, knees slightly bent and holding the Bodyblade (flat edge) behind with both hands. Push Bodyblade at a 45-degree angle to the floor to challenge the triceps, mid back and abdominals.
In a standing position, knees slightly bent, start with Bodyblade at chest height so that you can see the flat edge. Hold the Bodyblade with both hands and move in a push/pull motion.
Hold Bodyblade so you can see the flat edge. Raise over head and assume a wide stance. Slightly unlock the pelvis with a pelvic tilt and use a push/pull motion to get the Bodyblade oscillating. This exercise will work the entire trunk.
