FEATURES OF THE KBOX (cont.)
Mobility (cont.)
Further on, you do not need spotters to be able to do 1 RM (Maximal
repetitions). All this is possible with the kBox which weighs about 22
kg (48 lbs) with the flywheels included and it can be carried and
transported easily in an ordinary car.The kBox Lite can even be
checked in as luggage when flying.
Ergonomics
Pressure over the shoulders is one limiting factor for many when
performing 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 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 and torque on the lumbar spine.
Work Environment
The kBox is quieter when training. The area does not 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 the risk of interfering with each other and inducing injuries.
