Flexibility Apparatus
Flexibility Apparatus
Machines to make you stronger or aerobically fitter are nothing new, but equipment to enhance flexibility is now showing up in gyms. These passive devices enable you to stretch without getting down on a mat or finding a wall to lean against, a pillar or barre to hang on to, or a vacant bench to put your leg up on. Keiser’s Stretch Zone and Stretch Corner feature posts, bars, handles, and platforms suitable for doing various stretches. Precor’s StretchTrainer is designed for eight seated stretches. The stretching apparatus that has been around the longest is The Reformer, which is used in Pilates workouts for strengthening and flexibility .
