Senior takes Walk from Concept to Counter.
The prescribed 'Pendulum Motion' can promote a Cardio-Muscular workout, burn up to 43% more calories and will Super-Charge your next walk
'I remember a falling sky. Mother, what is that? Run my child, hurry now, before we too fall dead.' This line from the poem 'Child of War', written by Karin R. Globus, was published in 'Distinguished Poets of America' and sums up much of her early childhood during WW II. "At age ten my father taught me English via London BBC Radio. When the time came for us to immigrate to the United States, I became my families translator". In 1992, while taking a walk, she started the long journey into the world of Inventors when she developed a new exercise concept that would improve human movement. Since then Ms. Karin has been granted several U.S. and International PATENTS, positive clinical research results have been published and she has brought her invention from concept to counter.
The "Physical Exercise Implement" known as the BODY BAT Aerobic Exerciser, is a balanced walking adjunct that resembles two baseball bats joined together end-to-end. BODY BAT is swung from side to side in a 'pendulum motion' and in sync with each step. Clinical Research Studies, published in both "Research in Sports Medicine" and MSSE, showed that " Use of the BODY BAT Aerobic Exerciser during sitting or walking augments oxygen consumption and energy expenditure. The BODY BAT encourages a natural pendulum action of the arms during walking, is easy and enjoyable to use". The completed study can be viewed here. BODY BAT allows you to stretch and strengthen upper extremities, shoulders and trunk muscles, promoting a cardio-muscular workout with each step. The BODY BAT Aerobic Exerciser has been medically endorsed and can be used by patients with arthritis, orthopedic, cardiac and other physical disabilities.
In addition to using BODY BAT as a walking adjunct, Ms. Karin, a former ballroom medallist and Creator of STEP-N-SWING, has combined use of the BODY BAT with her dance expertise. From Rumba to Line Dance, STEP-N-SWING promises fun, fitness and five thousand steps in fifty minutes. Winter visitors as well as locals meet at the BODY BAT studio in St. Pete Beach, lubricating their joints while dancing to their favorite music.
The average American has placed exercise at the bottom of his list of priorities. Perhaps this senior came up with the EASY SOLUTION® to reducing our nations greatest health epidemic.
