OmGym Training is designed to help you give your body the experience it was designed to have.
The human body was made to move with more agility and postural variation than many of us can even imagine. At one time we needed to climb and sway in trees, use our arms to support our weight in varied positions, or simply find comfort without the use of chairs. This ability to practice unlimited postures was necessary for natural advancement and additionally gave us the means to control the environmental stress of gravity.
Today, however, we have become so immobilized as a society that even the majority of our “fitness equipment” at fitness gyms incorporate the use of a chair within its design. Simply put, we are no longer prompted to stabilize and control our own body-weight, or employ postural variation. Each day, we generally move about between lying position, standing position, and seated position, with very little deviance, if any.
As a result of depriving our body of its full range of motion, our bodies are greatly imposed upon by a constant and unnatural gravitational pull in only one direction, along with an assortment of musculo-skeletal imbalances developed from imbalanced, repetitive use.
Overtime, this can lead to a great variety of compromised conditions, as this unbalanced physical performance and gravitational force is a strong imposition even down to the cellular level. With these two massive anatomical influences, our cells will literally flatten and become irregularly shaped, having less ability to hydrate and function optimally. This can affect our brain activity, our skin's elasticity and appearance, our digestive health and more.
One of the best ways to counterbalance these anatomical influences is through the execution of Hatha Yoga. Even with Hatha Yoga, however, there is still a need for more brachiation (hanging in traction, like we would in trees) and pulling and supporting one's own body-weight by holding above. Additionally, while many yoga programs provide great power and stability training, there are others that lack sufficient stabilization and strengthening techniques. And for the many people who have never done any form of dance, gymnastics, or yoga, or have any type of compromised mobility, movements like inversions and backbends might feel a bit intimidating and therefore may be needlessly avoided.
With consideration to each of these factors, OmGym Training has essentially been developed to help control and direct how gravitational force effects the body. Its fundamental breakdown includes a customizable fusion of Suspension Yoga, Body Weight Training, and Suspension Therapy. Each of these segments will help activate primary and assisting muscle groups in synergy with the stimulation of the nervous system. This will in-turn promote and restore balanced, healthy, and strong movement with the strategic use of the OmGym Suspension System.
The benefits of this practice have included increased height, increased tonicity of the skin, improved posture, reduced back and joint pain, greater energy and relaxation, and greater physical ability.
Throughout this course, you will learn some simple, yet key techniques for restoring your natural range of motion, caring for your joints and spine, enhancing your core development, and igniting total body fitness with OmGym Training.
