Vitaglide
Upper body workout
Used in homes, rehab centers, and gyms, VitaGlide® offers you a straightforward and effective solution to boost performance of your upper body muscles and core strength with an emphasis on reinforcing the shoulder orbit. Heralded as one of the best cardio conditioning exercises for wheelchair users, your workouts also reinforce the shoulder orbit.
VitaGlide® is designed to allow a natural, fluid motion with no unwarranted stress on the shoulders. In addition, VitaGlide® now offers you two upper-body exercise motions similar to rowing or cross-country skiing. Both motions strengthen the musculature of the upper body, shoulder orbit, and core. Exercise routines can now be varied to work different muscles. And VitaGlide® users can select independent resistance for each arm depending upon their own physical abilities and goals.
Imagine building upper-body strength, boosting your cardio health and getting more out of life- without having to leave your home. That’s what can happen with a home VitaGlide®. The upper-body machine that is a favorite in wellness centers and rehab facilities is also available for home use.
That means that the way to a healthier you is as close as the next room. There will be no more waiting for an appointment at the rehab center or the hassles of traveling to improve your health and well-being. When you have your own VitaGlide®, you can work out when the time is right for you. For most, that means more frequent workouts and a stronger, healthier you.
There’s a more complete upper-body workout available. VitaGlide®, a favorite upper-body machine used in gyms, rehab centers, spinal cord injury centers and hospitals around the country is back and updated with independent arms, adjustable resistance, and interactive software that tracks your time, distance, and effort.
Tested in the spinal cord injury center at a major university for over 2 years, the new VitaGlide® offers users a patented push-pull workout that works more muscles than arm ergometers and provides a cardiovascular workout all while reducing the risks of shoulder impingement.
VitaGlide’s® updated design offers a touch screen display that controls resistance independently for each arm, allowing for customized workouts for each patient’s needs. A new feature is the Glide Factor, a tracking metric that combines workout time with the resistance level to provide one number to represent the level of work done in a Glide session.
