Hydraulic machines operate by increasing resistance as you exert more force, this ensures your muscles are consistently challenged. It becomes even more beneficial when you have dual action hydraulics. This means that you have resistance in both directions and NOW, you are working equal and opposite muscle groups in one action without having to change to a different exercise to work a different muscle group.
As an example, when you are doing a bench press you are also doing a row working opposite muscle groups to give you a quicker workout and give you cardio at the same time as you flow seamlessly from one exercise to the next.
The next benefit to hydraulic based machines is that there are no external weights to come back down on you if you are wanting to workout out at your own pace.
When choosing a piece of workout equipment for you it will depend on your fitness level and what you are wanting to achieve as your fitness goal.
For example, if you are searching for an effective way to boost your strength and endurance while being able to create explosive power, then hydraulic fitness is your ANSWER. You achieve this because as you push out with more force you get more resistance.
When you use a hydraulic based machine instead of a more traditional weight-based system you get a fluid-based resistance, which offers you a smooth and controlled workout experience. The resistance automatically adjusts based upon your effort giving you a personalized efficient workout. Now, what if you have a machine that will have many resistance adjustments to tailor your workout for you in a short amount of time.
We suggest you find a machine that will adjust resistance on the ram, as well as our machines, we have the extra adjustment by adjusting your pivot point. This is ideal in that it will allow you not only to train your body for strength but also if you need to rehabilitate. Free weights can be hard on your body if you have had an injury, hydraulics will allow you to have fluidity and ease of motion while being able to adjust resistance in smaller increments to increase your strength and not reinjure your body. This makes it easy on your joints and as we age the last thing we want to do is to strain our joints. We want to keep our joints mobile with the fluid around them and keep the muscles strong around them so we can enjoy our years and live them fully with our families!
What if you have only a small amount of space and you need a cardio workout as well as strength? The dual action hydraulics allows you to create the cardio workout as well and go from one exercise to the next and with our machine you can remove the arms and store it in the corner as it is on wheels. So, now you have two machines in one with no need to have a specific cardio machine as well as a strength machine.
So, in regard to the other benefits and bringing this all together in closing. Hydraulic based fitness equipment engages multiple muscle groups simultaneously which will give you a complete full body workout. The fluidity of the movement with resistance promotes functional movements that recreate real life activity giving you strength, endurance and coordination through various muscle groups. If you are an athlete in basketball, football or
even baseball, hydraulics may be what you are looking for to create that explosive power for what you are doing in each respective activity.
You can train in a shorter amount of time, achieving a challenging full-body workout, target multiple muscle groups and give you an effective training session.
Do you have a busy schedule and looking to make the most of your workout with the time you have and not injure yourself, then look no further than to consider the hydraulic based fitness machine.
