Queenax™ of the Week: 4D PRO® Superhero Workout
Train like a superhero, challenge your core control, and empower your movement! The 4D PRO® bungee fitness trainer allows you to leap further, fly higher and be bolder with your workouts. The elastic training system reduces stress on your joints while increasing total muscle work by reducing rest time between loading and unloading phases of movement. Equally important, it’s fun and allows you to take your training to new heights. 4D PRO is a natural fit with Queenax: it easily connects to the Queenax™ Training Bars, and the open space beneath the frame allows for considerable freedom of movement.
This 4D PRO Superhero workout includes six movements to elevate your fitness (smiles guaranteed). Perform each movement for one minute back to back. Rest for two minutes and repeat circuit.
V-Sit
Training goals: Determine if 4D PRO is set-up correctly. Experience dynamic core control.
