Start

Stand erect with the swinging leg bar behind your legs. Position the thigh pad vertically. The top of the pad should be approximately at waist height.

Lean forward placing yourself against the thigh pad and hold the A-frame, gradually slide your hands downwards until the thigh pad begins to take your body weight.

Going Over

Allow your feet to leave the ground, lifting the swinging leg bar with the back of your legs.

Further ease your hands down the A-frame until your body weight is taken completely on the thigh pad. The support pads will position themselves for full inversion.

Fully Inverted

Release hands from frame allowing the upper body to hang freely and let your arms relax in the most comfortable position.
Let the lower legs assume a vertical position as illustrated.

Maximum comfort is experienced when the thigh pad is approximately in the horizontal position which is achieved by adjusting the swinging leg bar.

Returning

Place your hands on the A-frame as high as comfortable and straighten legs.

Using slight pressure on the hands, return gently and slowly to the starting position.

Storage

The portable INVERTEX folds for easy carrying and storage. Quick to set up ready for use. Adjustment is retained when folded.

- Extra Exercises While Inverted -

Sideswing

With hands behind neck gently bend to one side, stretch and hold. Repeat to other side.

Twist

Hold frame as illustrated and slowly twist to one side. Repeat to other side.

Crunch

Curl upwards towards knees

Deep Breathing

While inverted, deep breathing will increase the oxygen level in your blood. Breathing is essential for purifying and revitalising your body. If your breath is shallow, all of your body's vital systems will be functioning at a minimum level. If your breathing is long and deep, your respiratory system functions properly. Increased oxygen levels will help in REDUCING FATIGUE, improving your VISUAL CLARITY and MENTAL ALERTNESS.

Be Careful

Go slowly and gently in these stretches. No exercise should be practised in a jolting or jarring fashion, a slow controlled movement is far more effective.

Stretch - don't strain

If you are straining, you are doing it wrong. Stretch to the extent that it feels good.
