The Benefits
- Improves muscle strength (including large muscle groups and smaller often weaker ones around the joints)

- Joint stability
- Coordination
- Mobility
- Cardiovascular conditioning
- Postural awareness
- Cannot be replicated with traditional resistance machinery found in most fitness centres
The Gymstick is designed to offer total body resistance training by allowing for hundreds of movements and variation replicating free weight exercises. However, unlike free weights which introduce a load in a downward direction due to gravity, Gymstick provides resistance in virtually any desired direction and in any position.
Gymstick also has attachment points to either side of the body’s centre of gravity which means the more the bands are stretched, the greater the challenge on the body’s musculature to maintain a stable trunk position. This ensures the body’s core is effectively ‘switched on’ during the most basic exercises. The instability created by this lever arch also helps to improve joint strength and stability.
No contract. No joining fee.
Pay $15 per session or $100 for 10 week term.
School holidays at my discretion. To secure your place, bookings are advised as I only have 19 Gymsticks.
