Kinesis: training movement with resistance

Sleek, versatile and nonintimidating, Kinesis offers active-aging organizations a new option for building functional fitness in clients. The Kinesis system trains muscular strength and endurance, while helping to improve balance and flexibility. Users can perform movements that mimic everyday activities, moving freely through all planes of motion without compromising the resistance load or natural path of motion. This modular system also serves multiple levels of function. All four Kinesis stations are wheelchair accessible, and each offers a different starting position and facilitates a breadth of movements. In addition, Technogym has hidden the weight stacks and inner works of Kinesis behind elegant wood panels, minimizing the intimidation older adults typically feel with resistance training equipment.
