"Brand New" -
Only Opened from Plastic Bags to take Photos!
Comprised of a flat, stable platform that sits atop two independently inflated, adjustable air chambers, the Step360 allows users to modify the device’s height and, therefore, the degree of exercise difficulty. It features a non-slip base that provides safety during jumping, landing and bounding activities, while the platform tubing anchors accommodate muscle-strengthening exercises performed on an unstable surface.
The Step360 is a very versatile training tool that facilitates training the many individual parameters of physical fitness (balance, endurance, strength, power, agility, flexibility, cardio, etc.) using one device. The product comes fully assembled, requires only a little air in each chamber (with the hand pump), is easily portable considering its weight and size, and storable, given its flat surfaces both on top and bottom.
Perhaps the most important benefit to this device is the flat platform over an unstable base. This allows neutral foot positioning, which mimics the position we should maintain while standing on the ground, yet allows the user to challenge his or her core effectively during static exercises (non-moving base of support or feet/foot). Other air-chambered balance-training devices often require or result in a more unnatural, offset foot position that alters joint alignment, loading forces and neural stimulation patterns, diminishing the training application and adaptation to real-world activities.
This device functions effectively as a tool for jumping and landing activities due to its design. The ground generally can be very unforgiving when landing; hence, the necessity of instructing proper landing mechanics at all segments of the body, particularly when working with females who are prone to knee injuries. The Step360 will absorb some of the impact forces of landing, yet allow the user to execute proper landing mechanics to absorb force. With other air-filled chambers, the impacting forces placed directly under the jumper generate elastic recoils that do not effectively prepare the user to handle true ground-landing impact forces. Additionally, the user has an option of deflating one of the two air chambers, thereby reducing step-height clearance, which may be more appropriate for older adults and those who are obese or have balance issues.
Another positive feature is the six anchor points on the platform, which securely accommodate elastic tubing for a variety of resistance exercises that can be performed in almost any position (standing, kneeling, half-kneeling, sitting, press-position, etc.).
The Step360 units are stackable, which saves on storage-space needs for group activities. Additionally, during a workout, smaller pieces of equipment that are not being used can be neatly stored under the device, which may reduce possible fall hazards.
