Form and performance - can one exist without the other? It shouldn’t. The CYBEX VR3 resistance strength line exercises the theory that form and performance belong together. VR3 is a collection of machines that combine striking appearance, excellent performance, genuine comfort and accessibility - without sacrificing the goal of functionality. If you want form and performance, the VR3 line delivers both. VR3 uses the familiar and comfortable standing position to train calf muscles. The shoulder pads are angled to match the natural angle of the shoulder which also offers better exercise comfort. The adjustable input arm allows users to adjust for height. This advantage means that they can just ’stand and go’ as opposed to getting into a squat position to begin exercise. A large curved foot platform allows for varied foot placement while the non-slip surface provides grip and support during the motion. Strong calf muscles help maintain proper gait and are an integral part of any fall prevention regimen in seniors. The standing calf exercise is designed to strengthen calf muscles in a way that is user-friendly to older exercisers.
