The Theories Operating Behind the Cardiocore Workout Machine Ball Bike
The call is everywhere. If you have a workout program or workout equipment you are trying to sell, you should be aware that being too specialized can be your undoing.
With the awesome success of P90X and the gym workout Crossfit, along with MMA style fitness programs, the trend of the times is €full body workout€.
The other emerging trend deals with how you work out. That is: what pace you are doing the workout at? With P90X and Crossfit the importance of going at a high pace for shorter more intense periods is emphasized.
Exercise scientists are using these workouts as examples of the power of more focused total body work where you take aerobic, anaerobic, strength, cardio and flexibility and roll them into one workout for intense periods.
With this in mind, manufacturers are vying for the consumer dollar in a highly competitive market, by coming up with new ideas out of the old. A prime example of this is Ball Bike. Ball Bike takes three of the most popular exercises that work on specific aspects of your fitness and fuses them together neatly for a core cardio blaster.
First Ball Bike is an exercise bike in the lean back almost supine position. You have seen these I am sure at the gym. Riding an exercise bike is super exercises and health clubs describe €spinning classes€ as a bread and butter revenue stream.
The reason this is so is due to the fact that spinning works and works big time. Results and the word of mouth about those results draw customers to the classes.
Next, Ball Bike wants to work your core. You might remember with P90X, core work became a household concept. The fact is people that went through the program and did the core synergistic routine discovered muscles they never knew they had.
So to promote core work, Ball Bike has you sit on an exercise ball rather than molded seat. This forces you to engage the core while you ride the bike.
Lastly, Ball Bike adds strength training into the equation with resistance bands that are cleverly attached to the area behind the ball seat area. So when you are doing the Ball Bike, you are using nearly every muscle in your body but also emphasizing core muscle groups.
The result is sort of odd looking, but more importantly, preliminary reviews have pretty solid. One of the things that is most encouraging is that there hasn't been people returning the product or seeking repairs. It seems like it is holding up well to regular use.
