The Firm Wave Reviews - What You Need To Know
People who exercise regularly and are already quite fit and don't need to lose any weight often ask me if the Firm Wave would be any good for them or if it is only suitable for new and novice exercisers. Some of these people are clients of mine who I have been training for some time; there are quite fit - in fact some of them are fitter than me, and they know nearly as much about exercise as I do!
I give regular exercisers the same advice as I do novice exercisers; that is that the Wave will give them a workout as intense as they care to make it. What makes this possible is the sheer versatility of this piece of equipment, which can be used either side up and for all sorts of floor-based exercises, exercises with an exercise band or with or without dumbbells so that they continue to challenge every muscle in their body.
I'm always telling my regular personal training clients that their workouts must change in order for them to progress. Our bodies are very clever and over millions of years of evolution have learned to adapt to whatever stresses and strains we place upon them; once used to a particular form of exercise, the body wastes as little energy as possible in carrying it out. This is the true meaning of efficiency, and our bodies are extremely efficient machines if kept properly and looked after carefully.
When a person first starts an exercise programme they often find that results are rapid; they lose weight quite quickly and the toning effect of this early stage is often spectacular, but as the weeks pass and their muscles and cardiovascular system adapts to their workout and become more efficient, calorie loss and muscle gain slow. If the workout is not then changed, they will then actually begin to lose the benefits they have gained; this is called the Principle of Reversibility.
The great thing about using the Firm Wave for your workouts is its incredible versatility. As the DVDs show, there are many different things that can be done with the Wave. Curve side up, there are all sorts of step and aerobic moves around, on and over the Wave. Add hand weights to these moves and you present your body with a whole new set of challenges. Flip the Wave over and you can do an equal number of aerobic strength-based exercises with the added bonus of an unstable surface to work with, making your body work in a wholly different way, burning a large amount of calories and vastly increasing your fitness gains.
