HANG YOUR WAY
TO FITNESS
It seems that wherever I go, there it is, on the TV,
infomercials, advertisements in fitness magazines, on my
Jeep radio waves and even popping up on my cell phone
even though I didn’t ask for it. I am talking about the
Teeter Hang Ups Inversion Table.
I took an interest in this because I would like to let it be
known that it’s not all about the relief of back pain, which the
Teeter Hang Ups Inversion Table is
known for. I would like to express the
fact that there is some very effective
exercises here due to the fully inverted
position. So I ordered the Teeter Hang
Ups EP-560 LTD Inversion Table
from Amazon.
To speed things up I went for the
one-day shipping. Such a big selection
to choose from. I went with this one
particular model due to its popularity. It
arrived on time. Bill started to put it
together without me saying anything.
My kinda guy! I was ready to give it a try
now with Bill finishing up with the last
minute assembling.
Viewing the full guide it recommends
to start off with the Partial
Inversion stretching exercises first before
going on to the full Inversion stretching
exercises second. I took my shoes off,
kept my socks on and got started. I followed all these stretching
exercises and now I was all charged up and ready to do
the workout exercises.
I started with the inverted crunches. I put my hands
behind my head and lifted up my torso halfway to my knees
as stated. Just with this one exercise alone I had a strong pull
in my stomach area. As I lifted up I knew this Teeter Hang
Ups was going to be a winner. I went to the next exercise,
which is the sit-ups. I placed my hands again behind my head
and did a sit up to my knees.
Since the inverted position makes the sit up difficult, I
By Vicky Waite
find this a great exercise with the scientists claiming that just
by doing one inverted sit up is the same as ten normal sit ups!
Next I’m going for the squats. I followed the directions
telling me to place each hand on the legs of the inversion
frame and to bend my knees. Then I began lifting upwards.
This is like a standing squat with your legs also exercising.
Studies show that exercising while upside down on an
inversion table is very effective and
quite interesting that studies report
it is most effective for the chest
area. Who cares if I look like Don
King back in the 90’s, I am just
having too much fun entertaining
myself on the Teeter Hang Ups
Inversion Table!
I went to search online on the
reviews on joint pain and neck
pain. Interesting enough it goes on
and on review after review on how
it’s great for arthritis, pinched
nerves, stenosis, back pain, herniated
discs, sciatica, and the list goes
on. Whether you choose to use the
Teeter Hang Ups Inversion Table
for basic exercises or for pain relief
exercising or for both, all you have
to do is simply set your height,
lock-in, recline and begin your
exercises, lean back and let the gravity do everything for you.
The exercises listed go from beginners to advanced. For
you Yoga lovers out there, yes there is a list of Yoga exercises
too. There are many accessories available you can find online
to add to your Teeter Hang Ups Inversion Table.
