The
Combination Pulley Tower is the most popular and versatile unit of
Juliu
Horvath's
GYROTONIC®
family of equipment. It's low
impact exercises are performed on a beautifully
handcrafted wooden machine which uses weights, cams and pulleys. The
workout is designed to balance the body's strength and flexibility.
The GYROTONIC® low impact fitness system utilizes a
specially designed series of equipment that is built around the human
body. GYROTONIC® was designed with total regard to freedom of
movement. The
GYROTONIC®
equipment guides your movements with resistance along circular pathways
that nurture the natural curves of the body. The continuous
GYROTONIC®
rhythmic movement elongates the
spine and rejuvenates the spirit bringing the entire body and mind into
balance. The motion patterns are natural, turbulence free and pure with no
interruption, creating a bridge between contraction and expansion through
the rotating movement of the joints, resulting in a balanced support
system for the skeleton.
The gentle
stretching, twisting, circular and bending movements in sync with a strong
awareness of breath, produce flexibility of the spine, and release the
joints from ligament or muscular constriction, while equally strengthening
the surrounding ligaments and their attachments.
The program
begins with a gentle warm-up, consisting of flowing undulating movements
of the spine, opening and releasing all the centers in the body. This
initial preparation awakens the senses, creating an awareness of the body
moving as an integrated whole. The body is then ready to move into larger
movements involving the extremities, always working from the core.
Once
these preliminary exercises are fully accomplished and understood, the
movements increase in functional and complex actions thus increasing the
demand on the neuromuscular system. In this way
GYROTONIC® creates the
perfect conditions for achieving a more organized, coordinated and
integrated way of moving.
