Flexxicore

The FlexxiCore Range of Exercise Equipment covers:
Continuous Passive Motion – FlexxiCore Passive Exerciser
Acceleration Training – also known as Whole Body Vibration Training or WBV – FlexxiCore Challenger

The FlexxiCore Challenger was launched in 2015 and offers an ingenious variation on the original format of Whole Body Vibration (WBV) training platforms - pioneered by the PowerPlate brand. It has a wider platform which combines vibration force with a secondary oscillating motion. This oscillation (alternate tilting of the platform from one side to the other at varying speeds) creates an additional dynamic movement for the pelvis, muscles and joints to work with as the body responds naturally to the motion.

The oscillation happens simultaneously to the vibration of the platform, and a further variation is created in real-time when
using the automated speed changes that are programmed into the 3 pre-programmed “auto-modes”. Alternatively you can use the manual mode which allows you to change the speed yourself during the course of your session.

In this way the Challenger’s design allows for even more variation in the way that the body is constantly challenged to respond to the vibration force while at the same time retaining body balance by adjusting to the constantly changing tilt angle of the platform. The beneficial effects of WBV are increased if you are exercising or consciously stretching while on the vibrating platform. By experimenting with different movements, stretches and poses you can force your body to engage muscles in ways that are outside your normal movement patterns.
Another unique feature of the Challenger is it's ease of handling. With a roller at in end, and a handle at the other, it is easy to pull or push across a carpeted or hard floor surface. Its flat shape means it can be easily stored - either on its feet or upturned on one side or one end.

Another advantage of the Challenger’s design is its wide and unobstructed platform – it has control panel flush with the platform, unlike traditional WBV equipment which typically has a control tower with handle bars standing on one side of the platform. The Challenger’s unobstructed platform gives you maximum freedom to use a broad range of exercise postures, stretches, and massage positions. This versatility means that people of all ages and fitness levels can use it to target their particular goals - with many different options available to them.

To get maximum benefit from any exercise regime it is important to slightly vary your routine each time. By making small changes, you can keep challenging the body on every level. Without constant variation your body will coast on a sort of plateau, instead of being forced to keep making extra use of its resources. To keep your innate vitality, you need to “use it - or end up losing it. ”
