GlideTrak™ APPLICATIONS IN SCHOOL THERAPY AND ADAPTIVE PE
Unweighted therapy and training offer a truly exciting and effective new therapy, rehabilitation, recreation, athletic training and weight loss tool to our nation’s schools. It is especially important for kids, teens and young adults in need of mobility enhancement and training. The following are some current and potential applications:
ADAPTIVE PE AND RECREATION PROGRAMS FOR YOUNG PEOPLE:
GlideCycle™ products can offer an entirely new competitive arena of track and field sport–OUTDOORS.
We have found most young people who are unable to run or do not enjoy running actually love the unweighted running experience that GlideCycle™ offers.
FUN FACTOR
The great benefit of this type of training is that all ages, including kids, teens and adults love it!
Explode Beyond Limitations
These 3 amputees train on GlideTrak and race on GlideCycles, our Body Unweighted Sport Runner. They average 1 min 40 seconds each 400 meter circuit. Each of them trains between 5 and 10 miles several times per week. Mike, a hip-disartic. has run over 20 miles with only one break. They all climb hills regularly.
Below Knee Amputee Steve runs 5 miles and climbs hills with his friend and Trainer Cindy. Impossible? Not with GlideCycle!
GlideCycle, speed, power, wind
Unlike BKs, above the knee amputees prefer to run GlideCycles without their prosthetic.
