The TBow Exercise

What is a T-Bow? Well, put simply, a T-Bow is a complete home gym, although it is also perfect for gym classes. The T-Bow looks deceptively simple - it appears to be merely a piece of curved plastic with a mat on the curved side and foot grips on the other side. But do not let its demure appearance deceive you; the T-Bow is all you need to burn fat and tone lean, sculpted muscles. The experts tell us, that for optimum weight loss we must not only burn calories by cardio exercise, we must also build muscle so that our body’s metabolism is increased, which means we burn more calories even when our body is at rest. The T-Bow can do all this and more!
The T-Bow can be used in several ways, meaning that it can give you a varied work out and you are less likely to get bored. All you need to do to get started is lift the T-Bow up by the easy-to-carry edge and lay it down on the floor. It does not even need a mat to stand on, carpet is perfect. When the curved side is facing up, the T-Bow will not move when you stand on it, giving you confidence and allowing you to do step workouts. Step is very good for weight loss and fat burning, and you can do step even if you are out of condition, a mature adult, or even quite overweight, as the T-Bow is very strong. Just by stepping you will tone the fronts and backs of your thighs, the harder to get at area inside the thigh and also your calf and butt muscles.
Stepping up and down on the T-Bow is just one of the exercises that can be carried out. You can also do aerobics steps around it and over it. Then by turning the T-Bow over so that the curved side is downward, a whole new world of exercises opens up! This way around, the T-Bow rocks when you step on it - just to balance on the T-Bow means you must engage all your core and internal muscles. This is very good for your balance, and helps train your brain to coordinate your arms and legs; this is called proprioception. Rocking on the T-Bow is another good way of burning a lot of calories, and is enjoyable into the bargain!
With the T-Bow it is easy to do a toning workout as well as cardio exercise. The T-Bow is carefully designed so that the special exercise bands can be attached in seconds, meaning that you get the most out of your workouts in the shortest possible time. Exercise bands add resistance to your exercises, meaning that you can strengthen the muscles in your legs, arms, shoulders, chest and back for a perfect all over tone. And toned muscle means increased fat-burning 24 hours a day!
And we’re not through yet! Your T-Bow is also perfect for performing floor-based stretching and Pilates exercises. Pilates has long been recognized as one of the most effective and quickest ways of sculpting long, lean muscles, strengthening abdominal and postural muscles and working the vulnerable muscles in your back. The stronger your back muscles, the less likely you are to suffer spine and disk problems in later life. Stretching exercises are an essential part of any workout, and the shape of the T-Bow make stretching and relaxing your muscles both easy and thorough.
