This is how you train your body tension with the sling trainer

With the sling trainer you can do an enormous variety of exercises and train specific muscle groups. The sling trainer is installed in seconds - and stowed away again. So it's ideal for a short session at home. In today's guest post, Christoph Völker shows you a simple exercise for training your body tension.

A guest contribution by Christoph Völker

The roll on - roll off exercise begins in the so-called floating seat. The rings are around 20-30 inches above the ground. You put your feet in the two loops, with your hands you support yourself - similar to the L-Seat - to the left and right of your buttocks on the floor. Make sure your legs and arms are straight and your shoulders don't sag.

Now push your legs forward until your body reaches a horizontal position. Then you go back slowly to the starting position. In this exercise, you may even push back until your buttocks are behind your extended arms. You can hold this position 1-2. Thus, the training stimulus is additionally increased.

Design

Your goal should be 2 to 3 sets, each with 8 to 12 repetitions. In between, take a break of about 2 minutes.

Effect

The exercise trains your body tension and makes you fit for heavier exercises. And by the way: The more body tension you have, the better you bring your strength on the kicks. The exercise also extends your shoulder and chest muscles.
