You’ll never guess what this is used for…
I know what you’re thinking…
And no…you haven’t suddenly stumbled into an adult website.
So…what does this thing have to do with health & fitness?
What if I were to tell you that this prop, despite its rather “organic” look is one of the most valuable tools that I have started using with my patients/clients.
What if I were to say that your frustration with trying to verbally cue rotational stability within the spine and pelvis has suddenly gotten a whole lot easier.
So, without further ado…I introduce you to…The Oov.
So, how does the Oov help you move? (Rhyme totally intended.)
Watch my interview the inventor, Daniel Vladeta, an osteopath from Australia to explain the benefits of this device, how he came up with the idea, and how this could be the new secret weapon for golfers.
What are the benefits of the Oov?
INSTANT feedback. Talk about not being able to ever cheat through an exercise again (great for home exercise programs or mat classes where people think they’re doing the movement correctly).
Non-fatiguing challenge to the deep rotational stabilizers (you know…part of that thing we call the core.)
Fun! The Oov brings life into those basic Pilates mat exercises.
Practical. When you’re trying to cue movement from the left side of the brain…sometimes it just doesn’t listen. However, when you’re forced to FEEL the imbalance, you know that something needs to change.
Incidentally, if you’re at all interested in more formal training on the Oov, stay tuned as there will be a combination of 1 day or full weekend workshops to come.
