Why is the Flying so versatile?

Leveraging the incredible freedom of movement that offer the two straps, the Flying can also be adapted to each specific request by the practitioner. In this sense, it is possible to work on aesthetic goals, of health and well-being up to the general physical preparation e specific to the various sports.

In fact, not having movement restrictions in the three planes of space (sagittal, frontal, transverse), with this tool it is possible to perform a great multitude of exercises. The Flying therefore becomes a valid ally for i fitness and bodybuilding programs, of postural re-education e post-traumaticas well as for the sports physical preparation.

For further confirmation of theextreme versatility of the Flying there is certainly the fact that it currently is the best “understood” and most appreciated functional training tool by all professionals in the world of sports and gyms, as well as by sportsmen and exercise enthusiasts themselves. While a kettlebells or a nails, in the eyes of those who do not yet know their characteristics and applications, can generate a certain distrust, the Flying is certainly more inviting, even for the "simple pleasure" of trying to perform rowing or push-ups.

On the one hand this is certainly a point in favor of this tool, but if the goal is to make the most of its technical characteristics, it becomes essential to know at least the basic principles. This is to derive real physical benefits from it, and to avoid the creation of joint overloads which in the long run can be dangerous.

Some useful tips for the practice of Flying:

1) Maintain the correct postural structure from the beginning to the end of each exercise.

To ensure correct muscle activation and avoid tendon inflammation, maintain the neutral joint position turns out to be fundamental. The moment you realize you are losing the stability of the shoulders, pelvis or knees, rather than continuing with the repetitions of the exercise you are performing with the Flying, the advice is to stop, rest, return to the correct body posture and then start again with the subsequent repetitions.

2) Do not lose tension in the straps while performing the exercises.

In all Flying suspension exercises, have a constant voltage of the straps means transferring constant tension during muscle work. Losing this tension makes exercises less effective in terms of muscle activation and strength development.

3) Avoid bringing the Flying straps into contact and rubbing with parts of the body.

This is especially true in exercises performed with the back to the anchor point, such as in the exercise Chest press. To have constant tension during exercise, avoiding abrasions on body parts, the straps must always be spaced apart from the shoulders and arms.

4) Correctly position your feet during exercises performed on the ground.

In supine, prone and lateral working positions on the ground, correctly positioning the feet on the Flying according to the respective working position allows not only to stabilize the ankles and knees but also allows optimal involvement of the muscle chains in that particular position. Considering that the muscle chains connect the eyes to the upper and lower extremities, when you place your feet or hands incorrectly, you create dispersion of force along these muscle activation lines. This also leads to a loss of stability in the joints closest to them (in the case of the feet, ankles and knees).
