FEATURES OF THE KBOX (cont.)
Mobility (cont.)
mats, racks for the weights, assisting personal or training partners to be
able to do 1 RM (Maximal repetitions). All this is possible with the
kBox which weighs about 25 kg (55 lb.) with the flywheels included
and it can be easily carried and transported in an ordinary car.
Ergonomics
Pressure over the shoulders is one limiting factor for many when doing
traditional barbell squats. Serious bruising can be seen after heavy sets.
Furthermore, the lumbar spine discs are under a lot of pressure, even if
the athlete has good technique. With tall people, people with a weak
core, or with back problems, squatting is almost impossible or
accompanied with a lot of discomfort or pain. With the kBox you are
able to work out maximally or closer to maximum intensity since the
harness equalizes the pressure over the shoulders and reduces the
pressure on the lumbar spine.
Work Environment
The kBox is quieter when training. The area doesn’t have to be
equipped with sound reducing materials. There is a much lower risk of
collision so that more people can work out in a smaller room without
interfering with each other’s workout.
