Resistance Chair Lower Body Kit - Ankle Straps
Sustaining muscle mass, increasing flexibility and blood circulation in your legs is very important in your later years. Lower joints are starting to tighten and muscle atrophy (deterioration) is already underway. So what can you do about it with the Resistance Chair? Purchase this lower body kit! An inexpensive, quality kit that helps you utilize the current resistance cables on the bottom of your chair to condition your thighs, knees, calves, and ankles. Providing the right amount of exercises and strain to your legs is a must to continue the mobility you desire in your daily lifestyle. Even for those who are less mobile or have knee replacements or circulatory problems, flexing and moving your joints is beneficial to keep those areas strong.
