Hedstrom Fitness launches the newest product in the Surge Toolbox – The Surge Riptide

ASHLAND, Ohio /ScoopCloud/ -- Hedstrom Fitness is pleased to announce the launch of their newest product in the Hydro-Interia(R) Training line, the Surge(R) Riptide.

This specialized training tool utilizes water to create an unstable and unpredictable resistance, allowing the muscles to be challenged no matter what the exercise. The Riptide also provides a unique challenge to the joints and stabilizing muscles, forcing the body to resist and control the unpredictable nature of the shifting water. The advanced core training the Riptide offers allows for over 50 innovative movement patterns that stimulate top down instability the way it happens in life.

The Surge(R) Riptide is similar in many aspects to the Surge(R) Storm, launched last summer, just more compact for easier accessibility. The Riptide is 33-inches in length and can hold up to 38 lbs. of water. Two soft grip handles, one long centered handle and end cap grips allow for a wide range of exercise options.

"This product has so many functional training and core training uses, and can be used by everyone from elite athletes to beginner fitness enthusiasts," says Candice Brooks, Hedstrom Fitness Programming & Master Trainer Team Director. "Utilizing water as the weight means the product is adaptable to any user's strength and abilities. By simply adding or eliminating water you can quickly change the product from an entry-level training tool to a very intense piece of equipment."

Hedstrom Fitness will be launching the Surge(R) Riptide March 21- 24 at IHRSA 2018 in San Diego, Calif., booth #407. The Riptide will also be available to purchase at www.hedstromfitness.com.

Hedstrom Fitness Presents Hydro-Inertia Training – Revolutionizing the Dynamics of Functional Training

ASHLAND, Ohio, Feb. 9, 2016 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Hedstrom Fitness now offers a product line that literally changes the paradigm of stability training. Via the physics of water, the Kamagon(R) Ball and The Surge(R) create "live and ever-changing" resistance, taking functional training to a whole new level.

What is Hydro-Inertia(TM) Training?

Hydro-Inertia(TM) is the utilization of water to create an unstable resistance that increases core strength and stability during exercise. By destabilizing the weight, you engage the nervous system and wake up more muscle fibers for greater results.

By utilizing Hydro-Inertia(TM) technology, you eliminate the limitations that are found in products that are limited to postural instability. The Kamagon and The Surge(R) initiate instability throughout a full range of motion in routines that engage your entire body. The majority of instability products currently on the market are primarily used as a foundation - or base - that you sit, stand or lay down on, but the Kamagon(R) and The Surge(R) shift that model completely.

Furthermore, the efficiency of Hydro-Inertia(TM) resistance mimics real life situations far more than static weights such as dumbbells or kettlebells. This is not only important for athletes in their functional training programs, but for every day life situations like picking up your kids, or unloading groceries.

Keli Roberts, Master Trainer, says about Hydro-Inertia(R) Training: "This is the most interesting and refreshing way of training I've come across in a long time. The ever-changing resistance level adds a whole new, game-changing element to functional training. And, I can use these products with any client or class - by increasing or decreasing the amount of water used I can change the resistance and level of difficulty. It's genius!"

For Instructors and Personal Trainers interested in using the Kamagon(R) ( http://kamagonball.com/index.php?route=product/category&path=91_95 ) or The Surge(R) ( http://getthesurge.com/index.php?route=product/category&path=106 ) the Hedstrom Fitness Education Team has created and launched 8 Hour Training Certifications with Training Sessions running frequently throughout the year. Participants will learn to utilize Hydro-Inertia Technology and experience how the unique biomechanical properties of training with destabilized weight can help transition strength gains into higher levels of functional daily activity and sports performance. Both Kamagon(R)l and Surge(R) training certifications are ideal for group fitness instructors, personal trainers, coaches and athletic trainers.

The Kamagon(R) is available in 9-inches and 14-inches and three color options. Also available are the Kamagon(R) Total Body Challenge Workout DVD and Workout Guide. You can find them all at http://www.kamagonball.com/.

The Surge(R) is available at http://getthesurge.com/.
