The Juvo board is designed to help you reach your next level of fitness through form, balance, and e But Juvo Elevate is NOT just for beginners.
The Juvo Board has three elements: Form, Elevate, and Balance. Juvo Form:
Form is absolutely crucial in any fitness pursuit to get maximum results and to avoid injury. Juvo Form is present in the shape of the board and in its function. The shape allows for certain movements and positions while in the Elevate or Balance settings. The Juvo Board, in either setting, supports good form letting you pro
gress safely and achieving the results you desire. Juvo Elevate:
For the beginner, Juvo Elevate makes bodyweight exercises like push-ups, sit-ups, lunges, and squats, as well as yoga poses like downward dog and forward bend, achievable by bringing the floor up to them. For some, the thought of doing a strict form push-up on the floor is downright scary. With Juvo Elevate, they can start from their knees and put their hands higher on the board, taking a lot of the weight and stress off the chest, shoulders, elbows, and wrists. The next progression is lifting on to the toes, then moving down the board, and then all the way on to the floor for a real-deal, strict form push-up. What was once thought as impossible by the beginner is supported and safely progressed by Juvo Elevate. In fact, it can advance your bodyweight training and yoga practice to undiscovered levels. Used in the opposite direction with gravity to increase the resistance, body-weight exercises become more challenging and Yoga poses taken deeper. Another use of Juvo Elevate is slanting. Similar to inversion, slanting decompresses your spine and relieves the stress on your joints. Slanting is often recommended over complete inversion because it is easier on your body, especially for people who might suffer from high blood pressure, bone disease, detached retinas, or previous spine surgery. Juvo Balance
When the Juvo Board is placed in the flat position it becomes an unstable surface. The benefits of instability training are well known, including increased muscle recruitment, core activation, balance, and mind-body connection. The shape and size of the Juvo Board allow for a wide variety of movements not possible on other pieces of instability equipment. On other common equipment, like a stability ball, only your hands or feet are unstable while the other side is planted on the stable floor. Juvo Balance creates an environment where the whole floor is unstable. Simply standing on the Juvo Board requires core activation and full body muscle recruitment. Better muscle recruitment equals better results, period. The unstable surface that the Juvo Board provides can be applied to bodyweight training, board sport training, yoga, Pilates, barre and more.
