SLIDISK

Pair of slide training pads to be used under hands and feet, preferably barefoot for better proprioception and neuromuscular activation. Slidisks, also called gliding disks, slide pads, functional sliders, allow you to slide easily on the floor in order to perform multiple exercises for muscle training, coordination and multidirectional stretching.

These are oval-shaped discs made of a durable nylon canvas with a light padding inside. They are extremely versatile and by favouring a high dynamic of movement, they allow you to engage all muscle groups, lower and upper, with particular effectiveness for training the legs, buttocks and hips. The fluidity of movement combined with a high degree of activation of the core and all the stabilising muscles also make Slidisks useful for athletic preparation, both in the context of conditioning programmes and in postural training.

With Slidisk, any trainer can present personal or collective training protocols using a very inexpensive, space-saving, easily transportable and extraordinarily effective tool.

Dimensions 310 mm x 220 mm, thickness 10 mm

Examples of exercises:

• Side Slide: standing on the Slidisk, you perform an alternating lateral opening of the legs.
• Plank with side slide: In a lateral holding position, the back foot is slid forward, passing laterally.
• Climber: From a plank position on the arms, slide the Slidisk alternately by bringing the feet and knees closer to the chest.
• Pike: From a V or face-down dog position, you slide your feet in the direction of your hands.
• Arm Side slide: by planking on the arms, you bend the upper limbs by sliding the Slidisk on the frontal plane, strongly activating the pectorals and abdominals.
• Forward, side and back lunges: instead of stepping forward, you will slide your foot forward, so that the adductor muscles are also activated.
• Abs slide: with the Slidisk under your hands, in an easy plank position (with knees in support), slide your hands forward and back, with arms outstretched and abdomen held.
• Specific technical exercises for skating, downhill skiing, for sports with changes of direction, for sports with movements and lateral thrusts of the lower limbs.

Mobility:

• Sagittal and frontal splits: placed under one or two feet, it facilitates the sliding of the feet, allowing you to concentrate on the correct position of the pelvis and legs.
• Prone butterfly legs: with slides under the feet, allows the leg to be spread laterally, facilitating opening.
