For example, turning our homes into functional workspaces, places of exercise and entertainment.2021 is our chance to reinvent how we exercise, now that we have found our feet. One fitness brand taking the world by storm is the Australian-born Vitruvian. Their flagship product, the V-Form Trainer, is the ‘smart’ device that vies for little space and provides an abundance of exercise opportunities. The Ultimate Fitness Device for 2021!What is a ‘smart’ fitness device? A ‘smart’ fitness device, similar to ‘smart’ phones, is a piece of equipment built using software and responsive technology to deliver a tailored exercise experience. You may have seen others such as the Peloton bicycle or the Mirror that are immersive and can be used in the home.What does the V-Form Trainer do? The device is a sleek, carbon fibre, 35kg platform with inbuilt cables capable of loading up to 180kg of resistance weight. Intelligent algorithmic technology adapts to the user’s in-the-moment capability, rapidly loading and unloading the weight load to manage the load based on individual ability and technique. It is also dynamic and responds to how an individual may improve in their strength and therefore the weight resistance will increase. Inversely, it can also detect when the user is struggling and like a spotter, will reduce the weight to assist the user in safely achieving their rep.Can I just use weights instead?What’s unique to the V-Form Trainer is that it amplifies eccentric exercise, which occurs in the negative phases of movement. Eccentric exercise has sparked a lot of attention lately for its ability to increase strength and burn more energy due to the power of resistance that you get from downward motions of exercise. For example, with static weights you cannot control the resistance in the downward motion of exercise, such as lowering the bar in a bench press. Another example is leg lifts. Using the V-Form Trainer, you can apply controlled resistance to the downward motion at a greater weight load than applied on the concentric phase. To be able to do this alone, without a spotter, is revolutionary and makes this elite training method accessible to everyone.What exercises can I do with it?You are not limited with the V-Form Trainer and can perform most exercises you would practice in the gym such as presses, curls, squats, lifts and more. You can also watch classes using the app for extra motivation and guidance, and follow technique tutorials. The device also tracks your sessions and will provide detailed insights into your performance data. This helps if you are setting fitness goals because previously untrackable data shows the micro-gains you can make every session.Exercise examples bench presses pushing upwardspec flykneeling two arm landmine pressright-angle leg raises on all fourslying down leg raisesbicep curlsdeadliftssit ups using the arm cablesWe liked the V-Form Trainer – The Ultimate Fitness Device.Hey… Follow us on Instagram : )You might also like:Share This 4 weeks ago
