Fall Prevention *Call to Action*


IMG_0019

Granny @ 86 yrs Young!

Our goal is to provide people who are “at risk” for falling, a unique device that WILL adds a valuable new dimension in your desire to help others or yourself, achieve greater balance, coordination and strength as a greater confidence to participate in life with less fear of falling is realized.

With more nursing homes and rehabilitation facilities reporting increases of people being admitted who have fallen, this fact is creating a “call to action” nationwide, to develop Fall Prevention and fitness programs that are effective and enjoyable while creating a community of support for those who need to embark on a renewal of fitness and vitality.

Letting physical vigor and productivity drop because you have retired, and ignoring the signs of loss of balance and strength can lead to falls and the chances escalate that you will continue to fall without some sort of intervention in the form of a fitness program to strengthen balance, gait and flexibility.  Look for signs of everyday activities that require sitting and standing as a normal part of day, becoming more challenging.  Cane and Dune

With over 8,000 people per day turning 65, it is alarming that one-third of this demographic are injured due to falls. Make it a personal “call to action” to start a fitness program or keep your fitness on a level that is compatible with your capabilities, age and health.

Create a list questions for discussion with your doctor to develop an exercise regimen and review diet. Join a club or a group to help motivate and energize you as you begin your new path of better fitness and vitality. Get Moving Again Get Back Into Living Life with Zest and Zeal!

Sports-Neuromuscular Stimulation & Mirror Resistance


Neuromuscular stimulation provides your strength, coordination, reflexes, and balance. If this system is lacking you will not have these capabilities in daily living or athletics.  
The neuromuscular stimulation and feedback loops are highly responsive to high frequency contractions which occurs during the rapid compression movements performed during cardio burst workouts. These feedback loops are referred to as Mirror Resistance.
 
Squat Run beginning position. You may want to try dropping closer to heels to increase the muscle activity. As you run in and out of the squat, try touching the foot pads when in full squat. Give yourself that extra challenge building your cardio and strength.

Squat Run beginning position. You may want to try dropping closer to your heels to increase the muscle activity. As you run or pad in and out of the squat, try touching the foot pads when in full squat. Give yourself that extra challenge building your cardio and strength.

 
The movements are characterized by rapid foot padding or alternating toe/heel compression while moving in and out of a “squat run” or crouching running position keeping the feet in contact with the foot pads of the SANDDUNE™ throughout the session .  
The SANDDUNE™’s properties feed your body’s effort  back into your body with the same force that you exert into the apparatus. It excels in improving endurance and proprioceptive functions of lateral movement, leg speed and balance because of its capability. These are crucial components of sports performance in multiple disciplines, the performing arts and fitness.
