Summer vacation time is not far off, and if for some beach rest is an excuse to shirk from physical exertion, then others, on the contrary, encourage it to pay more attention to sports.
It is for them RBC Style picked up four miniature fitness gadget. Lightweight gadgets are a genre. They will not occupy much space either in the suitcase, or in the trunk of the car, or in the beach bag and will always help to conduct an intensive workout even at the cottage, even at an exotic beach.
Tubular Expander
Durable rubber latex tube with two plastic handles attached to any hook, chair and even wood. It makes sense to purchase it with a set: with tubes for different loads, handles, cuffs on the legs to prevent rubbing. The expander, unlike dumbbells, gives tension to muscles throughout the amplitude of movement, providing a more uniform and high-quality load. As in the case of a tape expander, several pieces can be used simultaneously to increase the load. Adjusting it yourself is very simple: if you slightly reduce the length of the gum by wrapping it around your arms, the resistance and the load on the muscles will increase.
Fitness neck
A great addition to the tubular expander is the neck (or crossbar). It is assembled in two parts and diversifies training with new exercises.
Sliding discs
Functional training using special plastic gliding-Discs - a great option for fitness in the hotel. The main and only condition for classes is the presence of parquet, which will provide the perfect coverage. The use of disks loads the muscles throughout the range of motion, including small muscle groups and body stabilizing muscles. All exercises are performed gliding, which means that you need to constantly maintain balance. Examples of training look for YouTube.
Tape Expander
Four mini latex mini tapes usually come in a set, stretching 4 – 6 times from the original length. They can be chosen as a full-fledged replacement for barbells, dumbbells and other strength burdens for working with the muscles of the legs and arms. The principle of training with an expander is stretching and compression, and you can use several rubber bands at the same time. Color denotes resistance force.
