Dynavec Resistance Systems

o move the thigh both back and out at the same time. For you scientists out there, that means resistance is provided as you both extend and abduct the hip in sagittal and frontal planes of motion, simultaneously. And yes, we know this has never been done before – that’s why we are so excited about it! Often times the result is something that will cause you to walk funny the next day because simply stated our machine is a real pain in the butt. Forcing the gluteal muscles to contact against resistance in two planes of motion isolates the gluteus maximus which increases strength and improves shape in a way that, and we quote, “is like fairy dust, because it magically lifts your butt”. So who will benefit from our hip machine – aside from all of us who get to look at your improved posterior aspect – are those of you who feel it’s an Asset to have a shapelier derriere. Body builders and fitness models have recently discovered that using our machine to target their gluteal muscles, which are notoriously difficult to train and shape, provides a unique contraction not often felt with traditional lower body exercises. It gives you the benefit of the bottom end of a squat without the joint shearing or pressure on the spine. Since using our machine in a research project, we determined that strengthening the gluteal muscles among the elderly allowed for improved performance of activities of daily living – i.e. rising from a seated position with better balance. The muscles that support the hips are significant in the rehabilitation process, giving their proximity to the center of mass, and we can strengthen these muscles without placing a load through the knees or low back. Finally, we have had several people tell us the Dynavec Hip machine has helped in improving their performance during athletic competition – Power Lifting to rotational sports like Golf and Tennis. We have many more examples, but will stop there for now… …and let you decide for yourself.
