THE FUN MACHINE

 

A mobile inexpensive exercise device, which can simulate full body running, dancing and other sport movements like tennis, boxing, basketball, skiing, climbing, kite surfing, Pilates and TRX.

 

The Fun Machine weighs about 1kg and has a comfortable working load of half a ton. When collapsed, it uses the same space as a pair of running shoes.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Fun Machine can be safely anchored to a door (from both directions) or a ladder bar, a hook on the wall or a wide post outside. You can choose where and when to exercise, indoors or out, at home, at the office, in a hotel room or in the park. Fun Machine training can be done in privacy or with friends, even as part of a virtual reality game. Fun Machine sessions can be quiet and meditative of musical and energetic. The Fun Machine can be used as a standing alternative to spinning and a dynamic alternative to TRX style classes. No electricity is required. All the power comes from the body.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

From an exercise physiology point of view, the Fun Machine combines two unique features - the 'Fresh Start' effect and the 'uplifting' force. With this combination you will not want to stop exercising.

 

The 'Fresh-Start' Effect

  • The ability to change positions and turn around while exercising provides the 'fresh-start' effect. For example, after some time running in the same direction (like on a treadmill) one might feel body discomfort and difficulty to continue exercising in full energy. Runners know this phenomenon as the 'wall'. On a treadmill, the options are to continue suffering risking injury, or to stop running and let the body recover. On the FM, as soon as discomfort kicks in, the user can turn around and continue training using the fresh muscles of the other side. This allows tired muscles to recover while training, only to turn around again as soon as the discomfort kicks in.

 

The 'Uplifting' Force

  • The elastic effect of the Fun Machine provides users with the unique 'uplifting' force. This provides the typical Fun Machine 'bounce', which is comfortable on the joints and makes people feel and perform as if they are much lighter, stronger and faster.

  • The soft impact is important to fight osteoporosis and is comfortable on the joints. It also allows for safe barefoot running and dancing. It is like jumping on a trampoline bounce but the surface is solid, with all the physiological advantages.

Together, these two features provide a unique aerobic experience. It's easy to feel good and it takes a long time to get tired. People do it because its fun, like surfing or skiing.

The Fun Machine and Human Harmony training

Fun Machine training is an aerobic and automated form of training; therefore it is intended for people with adequate movement foundations. The exercise philosophy of Fun Machine training includes separate fixing of musculoskeletal disorders (when necessary) and building movement foundations with regular Human Harmony exercises; in parallel to Fun Machine training.

The Human Harmony exercises are used to warm up the correct movement patterns consciously before Fun Machine training. This adds to the performance, safety and enjoyment of Fun Machine

It is therefore not recommended to train on the Fun Machine without a Human Harmony warm up, or if pain or discomfort are present. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The FunRx

Use a simple convertor kit to transform the Fun Machine into a dynamic suspension training device. If you like the suspension training, you will love its dynamic version: The FunRx.
