This is one time when having a hang-up may actually be a good thing. Teeter Hang-Ups fitness equipment is used for what is known as inversion (sometimes also called inversion therapy).
Inversion benefits
This equipment is popular among people who suffer from back pain, sciatic issues or other types of aches and pains or soreness. Many people also swear that it is a very effective way to stretch and loosen up, improving your flexibility and making all of your workouts easier.
The equipment is designed to be very flexible, so users can start out with a modest degree of inversion and then slowly increase that angle as they feel comfortable and become accustomed to using the system. For this reason, it often takes some time to get the full benefit from using this equipment, as the improvement tends to occur gradually.
Initial adjustment period
Using this type of equipment may take some getting used to, and you may want to do some trial and error to find strategies that make things easier or more comfortable for you. For many people, being inverted isn’t something that automatically feels comfortable or natural. You may feel a bit awkward or nervous about being in that position at first, but most users find that they adjust quickly once they get over that initial adjustment phase. It helps that Teeter is known for making durable, sturdy equipment, which helps you to feel secure and stable despite being inverted.
Teeter suggests that new users start off with intermittent traction, which involves one to two minutes of inversion with rest periods in between. Eventually, these users can then work their way up to stretching or doing exercises such as crunches or squats. It is also recommended that you have a workout partner there with you to assist in case you need it, especially if you are going to be fully inverted.
