Bodyblade®, the patented, revolutionary workout system for fast, effective muscle strengthening, power development, stabilization, and toning, was invented by California physical therapist Bruce Hymanson.

The product is used by several world-class athletes and celebrities, along with countless individuals. The Bodyblade® has been featured by several radio, television, and print outlets including the Today Show, CNN, Fox News, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, the Los Angeles Times, the Chicago Tribune, the San Diego Union-Tribune, and many others.

Fitness Training for Seniors

Studies have shown that seniors are now living longer and feeling better about themselves. This is good news because this is the direct result of people starting to improve their overall health. Seniors can improve their health, happiness and lifespan by engaging in regular exercise and by paying closer attention to their diet.

Another important point to consider is that older individuals—and this includes men and women anywhere from 60 to 80 years of age—must especially focus on balance, coordination and stability. These are neurological aspects of health and are just as important as focusing on physical strengthening. Did you know that more seniors end up in the hospital because of an increased risk of falling (and subsequent injury) than they do because of disease? This should emphasize the need for strengthening physical areas as well as balance.

One of the major advantages of the Bodyblade device is in the combination of physical and mental strengthening that it offers. The Bodyblade requires that the user drive or shake the blade, which flexes the ends and provides inertial exercise. In turn, this operation gives resistance to the senior’s body. The bigger the flex of the blade, the greater the resistance will be. Therefore, the resistance adjusts to the level of each user, ensuring that seniors will not over-exert themselves. At the same time, Bodyblade training involves rapid change in direction and rapid contraction in the muscles. This allows the user to improve his or her balance, coordination and quickness.

Over time, this exercise regimen (very short and thus not too taxing on even an elderly individual) will help seniors to get up out of their chairs, change directions and walk around with better control. By improving the physical and mental quickness in a person, it reduces their chances of falling later on. Additionally, the Bodyblade builds muscles, promotes endurance and increases blood flow, which promotes good health. This device can be especially helpful to seniors who don't want to invest a lot of time in a more rigorous exercise program, but who want to devote more time to their health.

"Rotating or wiggling in front or behind while standing or sitting provides a surprisingly thorough core workout. In a decade, he has sold more than 600,000 and gained the endorsement of such regular users as Randy Johnson (who simulates the throwing motion with it) and heavyweight boxing champion Lennox Lewis."
Chicago Tribune

 

 

"The Bodyblade gives you good vibrations. Flapping the long flexible strip creates hundreds of muscle contractions... By rapidly flapping the Bodyblade, you can have up to 270 muscle contractions per minute."
San Diego Union-Tribune

 

 

 

"Shake your way into shape.

A former rehabilitation device, this 5-foot ski-like beam flaps like a set of wings when you shake it, working arm, shoulder and core muscles.

...A surprisingly challenging toning and strength workout from the waist up. Your muscles must strain to stabilize the blades' G-forces. Seems easy for the first 10 seconds or so, but becomes more difficult. Superb way to augment regular workouts, and you can use it while watching TV or walking the dog. Useful video workout included."
Los Angeles Times

 

Bodyblade® is unlike any other piece of exercise equipment on the market today. Most other systems work on the principle of the user attempting to lift a weighted item or stretch an elastic band. The Bodyblade®, however, works on the opposite premise: Once the user drives the blade and the ends begin to move, inertia provides resistance to the body. The greater the flex of the blade, the greater the resist. This progressive resistance automatically adjusts to the level of the user. Thus, the risk of injury through overexertion is greatly reduced.

"An associate of mine has just ordered a Bodyblade from you! I have been using the product, a PRO model, for the past 13 months and have seen some excellent results; therefore I have recommended it to a number of friends. I use my Bodyblade three to four times per week for between 15-20 minutes per session working with variations of the prescribed motions. Combined with a sensible diet and some running, I have reached what I believe to be an optimum body weight and a pretty decent physique...in a very convenient and low-risk manner. Golf is my passion (Scratch Handicapper) and I am convinced that the strength and tone that I have added and maintained have contributed to an improvement in my overall game. My flexibility is better, I have more stamina to play four-day events, and I have definitely added length without increasing effort.

Best wishes and I hope that you sell a gazillion.

P.S. I also travel with mine in my golf bag...FYI the core stabilization exercise is without question the most difficult and my least favorite but undoubtedly the most beneficial!"

"I've been using the Bodyblade for about three months. In this time I've been able to lose over 40 pounds using it and sticking to a low-fat diet. Over six inches in my waist alone. Now it's helping me to tone up. Thanks for the help."
Neal C

"I just wanted to thank you for making such a great product. It is the only exercise 'program' I have ever stuck with. In less than 10 minutes per day I'm able to maintain healthy muscle tone and have lost 30 pounds during the year. Thanks again!"
R Webb

"A friend suggested the Bodyblade to me. I used the Internet to find your phone number. I have lost 70 pounds and kept it off! I'm 76 years old and this seems to be what I needed."

"I'm 58; when I was 56 and 189 pounds I bought a Bodyblade Classic. I now weigh 146 pounds. I changed my eating habits but I never dieted. Not bad for an old couch potato! Thanks for everything."

"My wife bought my Bodyblade about a year ago after speaking to you directly as to which one she should get. I have been using it almost every day for mostly 10-minute workouts, sometimes 20 or even 30 on weekends. I feel a big difference. I have a friend who bought a Bowflex around the same time. He is bulky and large now but somewhat slow and uncoordinated. The blade can give you cat-like agility and make you far more coordinated. It must be the free-form exercise positions and all those reps. I have not lost much weight over the last year. In fact I have only lost 12 lbs total. I did go down two pants sizes, 42-38. Jacket went up from 48 to 52. I am 41 and weigh 250 now. I quit smoking, drinking caffeinated drinks, and I feel like a million dollars. Just thought you might want to know that the Bodyblade brought me around and made working out an enjoyable experience as I can workout anywhere with it."
Jim S


"I have been a Bodyblade user for the last six years. Exercising with Bodyblade has increased my mid-section strength as well as reduced my waistline. I noticed in as soon as two weeks I have lost one inch off my waistline and my back does not ache after I cut the lawn. I also run with more rhythm."

How does the Bodyblade® build muscles?
While the rate of oscillation stays the same, the workout intensifies when the amplitude, or magnitude of the flexing tips, increases. Over the course of just one minute, the ends of the Bodyblade® move back and forth 270 times--that's 270 times your muscles have to resist the movements. The resistance needed to control the blade can range from one pound to 34 pounds depending on the amplitude of the flexing tips.

What other advantages does Bodyblade® have?
Convenience: Bodyblade's® efficient movements provide a complete workout in just minutes, so you're never tempted to skip exercise during your otherwise busy schedule.
Cost: For as little as $49, you can start down the road to a stronger, healthier you.
Size: Bodyblade® is only a few feet long and a couple of pounds, easily fitting in the closet, under the bed, and in dozens of other places conventional weights and machines can't go.

What makes Bodyblade® different from other exercise equipment?
With Bodyblade® there are no weights or elastic bands that can break. You control the intensity and acceleration of the movement, which makes it safer and more effective than other equipment. Bodyblade® is technically known as a dynamic reactive instrument, which means that it matches the force you put into the blade and nothing more. As it moves back and forth four and a half times per second, it uses the principles of inertia to stimulate the muscles and make them stronger. The better conditioned the user, the more enhanced the workout. Yet since the user controls the movement, you can never injure yourself with Bodyblade®. All of this is possible due to the patented technology and the inertial exercise principles built into every Bodyblade®.

How does Bodyblade® create resistance?
Bodyblade® is a reactive, oscillating device that utilizes inertia to generate up to 270 muscle contractions per minute. The laws of inertia state that an object set in motion remains in motion until another force acts upon it to stop or change its direction. You push and pull on the apparatus, which accelerates the blade and creates a force due to the flex or amplitude of the blade. The greater the flex, the greater the resistance that is needed by the body to counteract the destabilizing forces delivered to the body. The blade's movement therefore requires the user to contract his or her muscles in order to neutralize these forces.

How does a Bodyblade® workout translate into calories burned?
Calorie consumption is difficult to calculate using Bodyblade® for several reasons. Varying factors are your age, conditioning level to begin with, weight, mass, lean body mass, and the true intensity of the workout. Since Bodyblade® is a progressive resistance device, which ties very closely to the user's mass and conditioning, results will vary--just as two people running a mile at different paces and conditioning levels would see different results. Since the intensity of training is hard to measure from one individual to another, there is no concrete measure of calories burned, e.g. 100 calories for every 10-minute workout.

We do have two aerobic workouts with two other products in the Bodyblade® line and one aerobic workout with the Classic. There are good reasons to do aerobic and anaerobic exercise to help burn calories and lose weight. The burning of calories via aerobic exercise is great not only for the actual workout, but also for the metabolic changes in your body at the cellular level. A more fit person burns more calories faster and more efficiently then a sedentary person. The key is to change your metabolism and burn fat more efficiently than someone who does not exercise.

The anaerobic exercise, or the more strengthening part of the workout, with Bodyblade® will increase the muscle size to some degree and will provide more fuel for the furnace. The more muscle working, the more calories are burned even at rest. The combination of more mass and more power capability, plus a more efficient metabolism, will change the way you look and feel.

Does Bodyblade® have an aerobic effect on the whole body?
Yes, Bodyblade® can be aerobic. There are several models that can be used for aerobic training. They come with a great aerobic follow-along video guaranteed to make you sweat and burn the calories. You control the intensity of the workout and how much aerobic work you do. As for weight loss, no product alone will guarantee weight loss. You must combine the proper nutritional program with exercise. Aerobic fitness will change the way your body's metabolism functions. The more aerobically fit you are, the better the cells process energy and burn calories. The more sedentary person will store food as fat while a fit person will take the same food and use it for energy. The key is to challenge the body with the Bodyblade®, tone the muscles, strengthen the muscles, and change your metabolism. Give the Bodyblade® workout 21 days and you will see fabulous results.
