The Firm Wave A Great New Piece Of Exercise Equipment
The Firm Wave is a new piece of exercise equipment which is equally at home in the user's front room or in the aerobics studio of a gym. The design of the Firm Wave is straightforward and well-thought-out, as it can be used both sides up; one side being firm and the other side rocking w
The Firm Wave comes with some bands which you can attach to either side to allow yourself to do lots of different exercises for toning your arms, legs, chest and shoulders. Using the Wave without the bands gives good fat-burning cardio exercise to work your lungs and heart. The Wave is also great doing stability and balancing exercises on; you can even do Pilates on the Wave.
In the gym, several machines that would be required to achieve this level of workout as the best functional workouts are made up of a mixture of cardiovascular exercise, muscle toning exercise and stretching and core strengthening exercises. The Firm Wave can do all this in just one small package! Whether you're a seasoned exerciser or just beginning; whether you are young or more senior, the Firm Wave has a level of exercise that is suitable for you.
The anchored side of the Firm Wave has a curve; step up onto this and you stand on the crest of the Wave. Doing simple step-up and step-down exercises strengthens the major thigh and butt muscles, works the calves, and stabilises all the little muscles of the ankles and feet. Stepping also burns a surprising number of calories and is more energetic than you think - try going to a Step class and you'll see what I mean. As well as simple step up and down, there are also step touches, step lunges, step kicks and knee lifts, and also crossing over the Wave from side to side, which brings the inner and outer thigh muscles into play as well.
You will be amazed at what you can do on just one side of the Firm Wave. The rocking side of the Firm Wave adds a whole new dimension to exercise! Simply standing on the rocking side means that your body has to recruit all your core and balance muscles just to keep you in place, and as soon as you start rocking even more muscles are recruited. The more muscles you recruit the more calories you burn; these movements challenge your balance, so therefore your balance improves after just a few sessions. The Firm Wave is suitable for everyone!
