Gyrotonic: How the full body workout can help you lose weight
Created: 07/01/2023, 08:00
High vitality, a lot of dynamism and more mobility in the spine: Gyrotonic is said to develop many positive effects and strengthen the back, among other things.
Gyrotonic is a training concept that uses the entire body.
The spine is seen as the central support and the body as a unit.
Juliu Horvath, former professional gymnast, invented the method.
But why is this training so popular at the moment?
You can also practice Gyrotonic in the gym.
However, an experienced fitness professional should instruct you.

Gyrotonic features undulating, spiraling and circular movements and incorporates elements of gymnastics, swimming, yoga, tai chi and dance.
From the description alone it can be guessed that the whole body is required here.
Key word: three-dimensional movement sequences in the Gyrotonic
With the Gyrotonic, three-dimensional movement sequences are carried out, which stress fascia, ligaments, tendons, muscles, connective tissue and joints in a natural physiological interaction.
The training takes place on special equipment, such as a jumping stretch board or the Pulley Tower Combination Unit.
If the purchase of these training aids is too expensive for you, you can register in fitness studios or physiotherapy centers and do the workout without your own equipment.
In any case, it makes sense to take the first steps with a trained Gyrotonic coach.

Gyrotonic: mobility, vitality and dynamics
This training method is ideal for healing degenerative diseases of the joint apparatus or the spine.
Blockages, osteoporosis or arthrosis can also be alleviated.
The full-body workout also has a positive effect on meniscus and ligament lesions, peripheral nerve lesions and vascular diseases.
Regular Gyrotonic training increases the mobility of the spine, vitality and dynamics in the body and the figure is shaped.
The deep abdominal, pelvic floor and torso muscles are also strengthened.
Building muscle also increases basal metabolism.
This in turn is beneficial when dieting because muscle cells burn more energy than fat cells.
