Training Advice
WARNING:
Before you start exercising, it is advisable to discuss whether training with a gravity trainer is suitable for you,
with your doctor. Should any of the following factors aect you, you should certainly consult your doctor:
−Pregnancy
−Diseases of the eyes, such as B. Green Star, conjunctivitis etc.
−Cardiovascular problems
−Respiratory illness
−Otitis
−Balance problems
−Spinal injuries
−Osteoporosis
−Hypertension
−Thrombosis
−Circulatory disorders
Determining the Centre of Gravity:
Hold on to the handles and swing your upper body backwards. If you’re having trouble, the centre of gravity is
too low, in which case try a dierent height setting.
Optimal rotation speed:
From the starting position, carefully tip over backwards. Ideally you should practice a smooth lowering movement which allows you to tilt easily back and forth. You should not tip backwards too fast into the hanging position, especially to start with!
Do not use your exerciser immediately after taking a meal. Wait at least 1 hour before starting your workout.
Beginners should train for the rst few weeks with a 20 ° incline. This gives your body the opportunity to slowly
get used to the strain.
Use the gravity trainer for a maximum of one to two minutes a day at the beginning.
Stop exercising immediately if you feel uncomfortable being upside-down.
Advanced users should slowly increase the angle of inclination to 60 °.
Training time should be slowly increased to 10 minutes. Ideally workout every two days.
