Redcord

• Redcord®: the ultimate suspension training (wake up the right muscles)

• The Redcord® Suspension System was created in Norway and is currently used in both rehabilitative and cross-training settings worldwide.

• The system utilizes cords and slings to support and challenge as you move through a series of exercises.
  It is similar to other suspension systems in that you work with gravity and your own body weight to create challenge.

• The main difference and brilliance of Redcord® is its ability to offload one's body weight to provide support where and when needed.

• This enables the instructor to quickly identify and target muscular imbalances (or trouble spots).
  You can wake up dormant muscles, free up restrictions and thereby deeply challenge your body. We have found Redcord® to be highly effective and efficient way to further augment functional strength training, providing a unique and superb cross training tool in our private, duet, semi-private and small group training sessions.
