Frequently Asked Questions
|
Q: Why the name HeartFlex?
A: The HeartFlex raises the heart rate while it builds upper body strength.
|
Q: What makes HeartFlex special?
A: HeartFlex is powered by frictional resistance which is calibrated to replicate the resistance of a hand moving through water. Some trainers have called its exercise; "swimming without the water." HeartFlex combines multiple repetitions and easy "consistent resistance" to build powerful muscles and improved hand speed.
|
Q: Can its resistance be changed?
A: No, HeartFlex is calibrated to have the same resistance as a hand moving through water. By increasing the number of repetitions swimming and HeartFlexing deliver enough resistance to train both beginning exercisers and professional athletes.
|
Q: How much does HeartFlex weigh?
A: Only 9 ounces. It was designed to be lightweight so that it would minimize eccentric stress to the shoulder rotator cuffs.
|
Q: How big is HeartFlex?
A: HeartFlex is 25" long and its main body is 1" in diameter. Its two handles are 4 3/4" long and 1 1/2" in diameter.
|
Q: Is it easy to pack?
A: Yes, and it travels easily.
|
Q: How long will it last?
A: With regular use and proper care HeartFlex will last a couple of years.
|
Q: Will it wear out?
A: Yes. The HeartFlex resistance assembly is made up of 18 precision ball and socket joints that act as "mini brakes." The frictional resistance of these "mini brakes" is what gives HeartFlex its patented "consistent resistance." When the brakes wear out the unit needs to be replaced.
|
Q: Is HeartFlex difficult to use?
A: No. HeartFlex was designed to be fun and easy. An instructional DVD accompanies each unit. The DVD explains the concept behind HeartFlex, gives care instructions, illustrates 35 different HeartFlex moves, and has special videos concerning walking and playing golf.
