You're looking for solutions..
As a trainer, or someone who just loves to exercise, you always put in the effort to record and track your progress in the weight that is lifted, the distance you run and other measurables,
But there is one major style of training that does not have a reliable way of determining intensity or monitoring progress: suspension exercises.
Tracking Intensity?
How do you measure and track the intensity of suspension exercises in a consistent and reliable way? Let's look at the factors...
Standing Suspension Exercises
You need to know the distance between your feet and where the straps are hanging from. The closer your feet are, the harder the exercise.
But how do you know that distance?
Prone/Supine Exercises
Just as important to know is the further your hands/shoulders are from the attachment, the harder the exercise.
Where would I get that information?
The best solution is the Tyger Mat, because it is the only mat that has all of these great features:
"Ears" of the Tyger
To setup the Tyger Mat properly, all you have to do is make sure the "ears" of the Tyger Logo are directly under where the straps or bands are hanging from.
The "Stripes"
-The distance that a person travels each line is 4 inches (or 10cm).
-They are also consistent with scientific studies that used distance to measure and adjust resistance.
-They make the intensities of Tyger Mat easily translatable for every country.
For Example: Line 10 = 40 in./100 cm; Line 9 = 36 in./90 cm
The "Spots" and Numbers
Feet/Hands on the Numbers
The widest and most stable width of support, which is 2 feet wide.
...or on the Outer Dots,
Narrowing the base of support to 1 foot will increase the amount of instability your body will encounter.
...or on one foot (and centered)!
You could put your feet together in the center or have only 1 foot on the Center Dot and really challenge yourself while maintaining great posture and performing the suspension exercise!
Fun Fact:
For standing suspension exercises, one study found that every 4 inches/10 cm can be the equivalent to 8-10 pounds of resistance.
Tracking Intensity in Every Situation
Even with your feet in the handles, the measurements for intensity of every exercise will be exact!
Did You Know...?
...the largest single purchase of Tyger Mats was ordered by the 87th Force Support Squadron at Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst (NJ) in 2021?
