• Add weight in small increments
• 1 Pair of PlateMate Hex weights – 5/8 lb. each for a total of 1.25 pounds

Product Description
Microloading with PlateMate® is the safe, scientific way to build strength at beginning, intermediate and advanced exercise levels.

Microloading with PlateMates is essential at all levels. Beginners are apt to do exercises properly and avoid injury. Intermediates stay motivated because they experience steady progress. Advanced lifters benefit because microloading helps them break through “the plateau” to achieve success at the highest levels of weight training.

PlateMate Hex attaches to weights securely with three superstrong magnets. The versatile design fits solid-poured dumbbells, Olympic bars, power blocks, and stack weight machines.

PlateMates are ideal for physical therapy where small increases help patients regain strength without overburdening injured muscles and tendons.

Product Description
Isokinetics Ball Chairs are the same chairs sold by others, only at a manufacturer direct price. No middleman means no need to pay more! And, we provide all of our chairs with a 1 year guarantee. As an additional bonus, we provide an exclusive exercise ball measuring tape that takes the guesswork out of inflating your ball. Sitting on an exercise ball while at home or work promotes flexibility, coordination, motor skills, core strengthening, and balance. Your body, when positioned on top of an exercise ball, is constantly making small adjustments, often imperceptible, to remain balanced and thus is constantly exercising a large group of muscles in doing so. By strengthening your body’s core muscle group you help improve your posture, have better balance and guard against back injuries. It may take time before your body becomes accustom to sitting on an exercise ball, since your core muscles may not have gotten much exercise previously. Start by using it 10 to 15 minutes a day and gradually work your way up. If you have had back problems or injuries, make sure to consult your physician or therapist first. Note: We provide a small pump for free for you to have a way to inflate your ball. However, exercise balls require a lot of air and it will take a lot of pumping with the free pump. So, you may want to consider purchasing at this time a high volume air pump, especially if you use exercise balls a lot or have other things you often inflate, like pool toys or air mattresses.

Whether you want to reduce back stress or fatigue or stimulate your blood circulation, the Ironman Gravity 2000 inversion table makes a great household accessory. The inversion table contributes to your body’s overall health by optimizing lumbar traction, thereby relieving pressure on your vertebrae discs and ligaments. And when your back starts to relax, the rest of your body follows. The table can also help with such areas as increasing body flexibility for improved athletic performance, reducing the effects of aging due to gravity, and relieving lower backaches due to sitting or standing.

The Gravity 2000 boasts a durable tubular steel frame with a scratch-resistant powder-coated finish. The backrest, meanwhile, is made of a heavy-duty nylon material that’s extremely durable yet still comfortable when the table is in use. Most importantly, the inversion system is a breeze to use: once you rest your body against the nylon backrest and slip your feet into the ergonomically molded ankle cushions, simply reach your arms over your head. As your arms go up, your body gradually inverts up to 90 degrees. The only inputs are your energy and gravity itself. The table includes three different starting inversion angles, and inverts up to 90 degrees.

Users will also appreciate the tough rubber non-skid floor stabilizers, which keep the table stable while you invert, and the extra-long safety handles, which provide an easy return to an upright position. Other details include a height-adjustable frame up to 6 feet 6 inches; support for up to 300 pounds; and vinyl safety side covers to protect hands and fingers. The Gravity 2000, which folds into a compact footprint for easy storage, measures 26 by 65 by 49 inches (W x H x D) and weighs 55 pounds.

Product Description
Dr. Riter’s Real-Ease Neck and Shoulder Relaxer The Real-Ease Neck and Shoulder Relaxer is a scientifically contoured headrest designed to let you deeply relax. Doctor Riter’s Real-Ease is the most advanced cervical neck support in the world. It is so unique that it’s patented. It is totally non-toxic and is the simplest, least expensive way to deeply relax your tired, sore neck and shoulders. So why do so many people suffer from neck, head and shoulder discomfort anyway? The musculature of the neck and shoulders is responsible for holding our head erect. In addition, essential sensory mechanisms of our life, i.e. eyes, ears, nose are all located in the head. When our necks are tight or jaws clenched, we set up a pattern of chronic spasms and tightness in all the muscles of the neck and shoulders. The dimensions of stress on these muscles are extraordinary. In addition, adequate blood flow into the head requires a relaxed musculature. Therefore, our need to provide deep relaxation for the neck is of utmost importance. If there was a simple, inexpensive, drug-free, non-toxic way to deeply relax your sore and tired neck, would you give it a try? What does the Real-Ease Neck and Shoulder Relaxer do? Imagine having a skilled massage therapist gently and firmly holding your head, while you completely surrender the weight of your head into their healing hands. This is just what the Real-Ease can accomplish for you. It allows for deep and profound muscle comfort. How does the Real-Ease Neck and Shoulder Relaxer work? The scientifically and orthopedically designed device gently cradles your neck along the base of the skull. The structure of the device allows you to deeply relax the weight of your head into the firm, soft inner surface while gently holding your head up. This allows the many tight muscles of the neck and shoulders to relax. Real-Ease can go anywhere Wherever you can lean back or lie down, Real-Ease will make it more relaxing. For watching TV or lying in bed

About Exercise Bikes
Despite the competition from trendy new fitness inventions, exercise bikes continue to be popular options for home exercise. They offer the same aerobic benefits of riding a bicycle at any time, in any weather, without leaving the comfort and safety of home. Exercise bikes don’t take up much space, require little or no balance or coordination, and can provide an effective workout for all levels of users, from beginners to serious competitors. While the same could be said for a number of other types of home fitness equipment, the exercise bike is one of the few that allows you to watch television or read a magazine while you work out. For many people, having convenient access to quality exercise equipment is critical to sticking with a long-term exercise program.
