Resistence Training in Stretched Positions(KiD)
For decades, ideas and concepts about whether and how stretching makes sense have changed. The research results seem to contradict each other repeatedly. However, one thing is certain: strengthening always plays a central role.
The tricky question is: what is the best way to strengthen the muscles and when and for how long is stretching useful?
If the muscles are predominantly used in the mid-range and trained in contraction, intelligent stretching should be an attribute of balance. The better we adapt training, strengthening and stretching to the organisational principles of our brain, the more effective and efficient the result will be.
The highest efficiency lies in the strategic combination of strengthening from stretching positions, against resistance. Activating more muscle groups in functional chains of movement and improving the range of motion the better. To maximise stability, KiD should always be used to train the counter-player chains from stretches - for example against the resistance of gravity, against a terraband or against the hands of a partner.
Galileo-Training
Galileo vibration training from Novotec is characterised by an alternating movement and enables an optimal training stimulus between 5Hz and 33Hz.
At 5-12Hz, the training device offers the body a perfect combination of relaxation and regulation. At 13-20Hz, targeted gentle muscle training of the entire kinetic muscle chain takes place.
In the frequency ranges above 20Hz, neuronal circuits and autochthonous elements can be trained.
This enables optimum synchronisation of the entire musculoskeletal system with the correct fine-tuning of the muscles.
On the Galileo therapy table, the gravity-induced load can be controlled via the tilt angle. As a result, it is also possible to treat people with neurological conditions (e.g. Parkinson's disease, MS, ALS). Even elderly people can be trained and treated more effectively using the Galileo Therapy Table in combination with myoreflex therapy.
