Exercise While Parked
If you need to be parked on your posterior you need to make sure you perform specialist exercise to offset this.
“Sitting is more dangerous than smoking, kills more people than HIV and is more treacherous than parachuting. We are sitting ourselves to death.” Dr James Levine
Many studies have repeatedly shown that the effects of spending too much time on our posteriors is incredibly bad for us. Evidence has been found that extensive sitting increases the risk of developing some serious illnesses. Examples are type 2 diabetes, heart disease and even some forms of cancer.
A new study as shown the danger of sitting in adolescence. The British Journal of Sports Medicine suggests children go off exercise and revert to sitting much earlier than previously thought, around the age of seven.
Although the study cannot prove what causes the drop-off in physical activity, Prof John Reilly, study author from the University of Strathclyde, said “something is going wrong in British children” long before adolescence.
“Activity tails off from around the time of going to school, when there’s a change in lifestyle,” Prof Reilly said. From BBC.

The following three exercises are all performed with your posterior parked on the Rooboard. This increases the intensity of the exercises.

The Rooboard combines the functionality of many pieces of fitness equipment in a single portable package. Designed by a London surfers group it can be used in the home, office, gym or outdoors. It will save you £100’s on gym memberships and transform your postural strength.
It creates instability which forces the stabiliser muscles to engage, which in turn increases the intensity of the exercises performed. This means shorter body weight workouts for increased gains. These are what we call muscle hacks.
From targeted muscle group exercises for core and balance, to HIIT and sports specific workouts the Rooboard can compliment your existing training sessions or become your single piece of goto fitness equipment.
