A new piece of equipment to the exercise market is the Firm Wave which can be used both in the gym and in the comfort of your own home. The design of the Firm Wave is uncomplicated but clever; it is a small unit that can be carried easily and put away practically anywhere. One side of the Wave is stable and the other isn't.
The Firm Wave comes with some bands which you can attach to either side to allow yourself to do lots of different exercises for toning your arms, legs, chest and shoulders. Using the Wave without the bands gives good fat-burning cardio exercise to work your lungs and heart. The Wave is also great doing stability and balancing exercises on; you can even do Pilates on the Wave.
In the gym, several machines that would be required to achieve this level of workout as the best functional workouts are made up of a mixture of cardiovascular exercise, muscle toning exercise and stretching and core strengthening exercises. The Firm Wave can do all this in just one small package! Whether you're a seasoned exerciser or just beginning; whether you are young or more senior, the Firm Wave has a level of exercise that is suitable for you.
The anchored side of the Firm Wave has a curve; step up onto this and you stand on the crest of the Wave. Doing simple step-up and step-down exercises strengthens the major thigh and butt muscles, works the calves, and stabilises all the little muscles of the ankles and feet. Stepping also burns a surprising number of calories and is more energetic than you think - try going to a Step class and you'll see what I mean. As well as simple step up and down, there are also step touches, step lunges, step kicks and knee lifts, and also crossing over the Wave from side to side, which brings the inner and outer thigh muscles into play as well.
And that's just the stable side of the Firm Wave; turn your Wave over and it rocks, giving a whole new meaning to Riding the Wave! To balance while this side rocks you will use lots of muscles deep within your body that you never knew you had. This makes your workout challenging, fun, burns lots more calories and is very good for improving your balance in the everyday world. Whether you are young or old you will notice the difference that the Firm Wave can make for you!
