Benefits
1. Improves Balance and Stability
One of the primary benefits of using the device is the improvement of balance and stability. Balance training is essential for everyone, from athletes aiming to enhance performance to individuals seeking to prevent falls and injuries. The board challenges your balance by forcing your body to engage stabilising muscles, particularly in the core, legs and ankles.
2. Enhances Proprioception
Proprioception, the body’s ability to sense movement, action, and location, is crucial for coordinated movement. The Physioworx Board is specifically designed to enhance proprioceptive abilities, making it an excellent tool for rehabilitation after injuries - particularly those affecting the lower limbs. Regular use of the board can help restore and improve proprioceptive function, aiding in quicker and more effective recovery.
3. Core Strengthening
it is an effective tool for strengthening the core muscles, which are vital for maintaining balance, posture, and overall physical performance. Core exercises performed on a balance board are more challenging than those on a stable surface, leading to greater muscle engagement and better results.
4. Rehabilitation
For those recovering from injuries, particularly to the ankles, knees, or hips, the Physioworx Board offers a safe and effective way to regain strength and mobility. The controlled instability of the board allows for gentle but effective rehabilitation exercises, which can be tailored to individual needs and progress levels.
5. Sports Performance
Athletes can benefit significantly from incorporating the Physioworx Board into their training routine. Balance and proprioception are key components in many sports, including football, basketball, skiing and surfing. Training on the board can help improve agility, reaction time, and overall athletic performance.
6. Injury Prevention
Regular use of the balance board can help strengthen the muscles and ligaments around the joints, particularly the ankles and knees, reducing the risk of injuries. This makes it an excellent preventive tool for athletes and active individuals alike.
How to Use the Physioworx Exercise and Balance Board
The Physioworx Exercise Board can be used in various ways to target different muscle groups and fitness goals. Below are a few examples:
- Basic Balance Exercise: Start by standing on the board with both feet shoulder-width apart. Try to maintain your balance as the board tilts. This exercise engages your core, legs, and stabilising muscles.
- One-Leg Balance: Stand on the board with one foot, lifting the other off the ground. This exercise intensifies the challenge, forcing your stabilising muscles to work harder to maintain balance.
- Squats: Perform squats while standing on the board. This variation of the squat targets the legs and core, adding an element of balance to the exercise.
- Lunges: Place one foot on the board and perform lunges. This exercise works the legs and core while also improving balance and coordination.
- Plank with Hand on Board: Get into a plank position with your hands on the balance board. This exercise adds instability, making it more challenging for the core and upper body.
- Rehabilitation Exercises: For those recovering from an injury, gentle rocking movements on the board can help rebuild strength and proprioception in the affected area.
