Orphan date October 2006 att December 2011 Hydraulic ExerciseEquipment is form of exercise machine used in a number of strength training programs. They are most often found in circuit training gyms. Hydraulic circuit training machines were first developed for The Henley Corporation in the 70 s, ref http www.shapesforwomen.com hydraulicfitness.asp Shapes for Women ref and are now becoming an increasingly popular form of exercise. The fundamental principles behind these designs are based on fluid dynamics Force that is applied at one point is transmitted to another point using an incompressible fluid known as hydraulic oil. ref http science.howstuffworks.com hydraulic1.htm How Stuff Works Science edition ref For circuit training applications, each piece of equipment is specifically designed for a given exercise. The effort is applied through the range of motion of the exercise acts on a lever against a piston which moves linearly within a hydraulic cylinder. The cylinder is filled with hydraulic oil which is displaced by the motion of the piston, and is allowed to flow to the opposite side of the piston through an adjustable orifice. Resistance to the motion is determined by the amount of effort applied and the adjusment size of the orifice. This is a key feature of this design and allows the resistance to be adjusted to an individual s strength level. ref http www.healthfxamerica.com healthmaxpro guide index.html Healthmax Pro ref References reflist Category Exerciseequipment ... more details

About the body exercise the anatomical movement of joints Extension kinesiology Image Roman chair hyperextension animation.gif thumb Hyperextensions being performed using a Roman chair for support A hyperextension commonly called superman for the execution is an exercise that works the lower back as well as the mid and upper back, specifically the erector spinae . One method of performing it, called back extension involves using a roman chair to hold the feet down and hips up. It can also be performed without equipment, in the bird dog exercise, in a prone position with arms forward. This version involves lifting one arm and the opposing leg at the same time, then releasing. These strengthen the lower back and are ideal to be used after deadlifts for complete exhaustion of the lower back muscles.

Image Dips.png right thumb 300px Dip exercise using a dip bar The dip is an exercise used in strength training . Narrow, shoulder width dips primarily train the triceps , with major synergist s being the anterior deltoid , the Pectoralis major muscle pectoralis muscles Human sternum sternal , clavicular, and minor , and the rhomboid muscles of the back in that order . Wide arm training places additional emphasis on the pectoral muscles , similar in respect to the way a wide grip bench press would focus more on the pectorals and less on the triceps. Classic meaning In past decades, the term floor dip was used in place of what is now called a press up or push up . Modern meaning To perform a dip, the exerciser hangs from a dip bar or from a set of Rings gymnastics rings with his arms straight and shoulders over his hands, then lowers his body until his arms are bent to a 90 degree angle, and then lifts his body up, returning to the starting position. Short people are able to cope better with a narrower grip, but not with a wider one. Tall people have greater ease in this exercise overall as their reach to chest size ratio is greater. Due to natural flexibility in the shoulder joints, it is important to try to lock them as much as possible during this exercise. Otherwise, the supporting rotator cuffs may become strained. Variation Usually dips are done on a dip bar , with the exerciser s hands supporting his entire body weight. For added resistance, weights can be added by use of a dip belt , weighted vest, or by wearing a bookbag with weights in it. A dumbbell may also be held between the knees or ankles. For less resistance, an assisted dip pull up machine can be used which ... a dip.

Exercise prescription is the referral of patients to exercise programmes. The term is also used to describe the development of exercise programs. Patient Referral In the United Kingdom there is a scheme called Exercise on prescription in which doctors are able to prescribe exercise to those with conditions that benefit from it, such as asthma , Depression mood depression or obesity . The initiative particularly aimed to lower the rate of heart disease . National standards for such initiatives from doctors were established by the Department of Health in 2001. Exercise on prescription aims to prevent deterioration of conditions, and views exercise as a preventative health measure. Fitness classes or a course at the local gym are available on prescription at a reduced rate to people who might benefit from them. It aims to make it easier for people to follow their doctors advice about taking more exercise or losing weight. ref http news.bbc.co.uk 1 hi health 1261950.stm Exercise on prescription ... http www.timesonline.co.uk tol life and style health features article1031314.ece Exercise on prescription Times ref Researchers in New Zealand have also discussed the benefits of exercise referral by medical ...
