Hand Arm Balance Training

For this exercise the Omgym acts as a safety harness to help you develop your balance in the hand stand position. From the fully inverted position place both of your hands on the floor directly under your shoulders. Spread your fingers wide to provide a good base for balance. Now slowly push your body up until all of your weight is supported by your arms. To exit this pose simply lower yourself slowly back to the starting position.

To perform this stretch attach the hammock portion of the OmGym to the two suspension ropes. Then start by sitting in the hammock and gripping one of the medium length grips in each hand. While holding on to the hand grips slowly lean back in the hammock until you are laying flat with your legs dangling and arms supporting the weight of your upper body. From this position spread your legs so that as you lower yourself even further prevent you from slipping out of the hammock. After lowering yourself to about a 45 degree angle, relax your back and let your weight be supported by your hips and arms. You can stay in this position as long as is comfortable. To get out of this stretch simply pull yourself back into a seated position.
