ZeSa® combines technologies of Instability PLUS 360° Rotation which under use provides continual balance challenge by requiring constant adjustments in muscle activation to attain force steadiness. The end result is –
MAXIMUM MUSCLE RECRUITMENT & SPINE STABILIZATION by:
- Increasing core muscle (lumbar & abdominal) activation via the need to stabilize the spine and maintain balance control. Studies show dynamic balance training actually creates 27% – 54% muscle activation increase, especially in the trunk musculature. Strong core musculature stabilizes both the spine and pelvis and play a crucial role in balance and performance, and is the bridge between the upper and lower body allowing for efficient transfer of force and energy during movement. Strong core muscles are also important for the prevention of low back pain.
Challenge and Improve JOINT STABILIZATION for Injury Prevention and Recovery:
STABILIZING MUSCLES are groups of muscles that maintain proper posture and joint alignment during movement for functional movement, athletic performance & injury prevention. While primary muscles are important in a movement or activity, stabilizing muscles are critical for overall strength, balance & injury prevention. Examples of these Stabilizing Muscles are –
- Rotator Muscles which stabilize the shoulder joint for athletic performance and injury prevention
- Hip Stabilizers that help stabilize hip joint for walking, running, jumping
- Knee & Ankle Stabilizers consisting of the muscles, tendons & ligaments stabilize these joints that are prone to the highest rate of injury
