SLALOM TRAINER

Slalom trainer – The right fitness equipment for holistic body movement

The lateral abdominal and hip muscles are often overlooked muscle groups in the human body, although they contribute to smooth body movement and healthy posture. The Slalom Trainer activates precisely these muscle groups in a pleasant and playful way.

The slalom trainer promotes both mobility and coordination and is an important piece of training equipment for any all-round fitnesspark.

This fitness equipment should be used for preventative training to ensure mobility in old age or to promote coordination as part of other sports exercises.

For whom is the playfit^® Slalom Trainer suitable?

As the entry level is low, the Slalom Trainer is suitable for beginners – but by adjusting the training duration and speed of the swing, even experienced users will find a new challenge.

TRAINING EFFECT & TRAINING GOALS

The slalom trainer mobilises the lateral trunk and abdominal muscles in a simple and fun way, and also trains the leg muscles.

At the same time, the slalom trainer helps to improve the mobility of the lateral upper body, hips and legs.

Getting and staying in shape requires coordination skills, which can be improved by regularly repeating the training sessions.

ADVANTAGES OF THE SLALOM TRAINER

Training on the slalom trainer promotes a form of mobility that is often neglected in everyday movements. The training device mobilises muscle groups in the side of the upper body that are less developed and trained in many people.

The handlebar and the non-slip tread surface provide the necessary safety and stability during the training session.

Increasing the level of difficulty

You can increase the level of difficulty by putting your legs together and bending your knees slightly. You can adjust the speed and training time to further increase your performance. Keep your abdominal muscles tensed.
