Welcome to www.dsebecs.com

It’s a new multifunctional apparatus that has been PATENTED(PE 0010 / 2005/04250) and would like to introduce the D-SEBECS to you.

The purpose of this apparatus (D-SEBECS) is to create an opportunity to exercise in a dynamic environment and in a closed kinematic chain, as there is currently little in the market to fulfil this purpose. It consists of an unstable platform that can tilt in a multidirectional manner. The platform rests on a flat base with castors. A unilateral force applied to the platform will move the apparatus in an opposite direction. For example: See exercises on CD.

Research shows that when moving/training in a dynamic environment, one can strengthen your prime movers (big muscle groups), but at the same time strengthen your stabilizers, as this forms the base for your prime movers. Stability ball training is one method of placing the body in an unstable environment forcing a person to utilize the stabilizer muscles and to stay balanced in a given position or through a particular motion (Marxhausen 2004). I developed a new device (D-SEBECS) as a potentially valuable method of training core stability. We’ve done a study and compared the effectiveness of the stability ball and the D-SEBECS in recruiting the core stabilizers during the bridging exercise. Surface electromyography (EMG) was used to measure the activity of the stabilizer muscles (Transversus Abdominus (TA) and Multifidus (MF)) while bridging on a stability ball and on the D-SEBECS. The maximum and average recruitment of all muscle fibres (Abdominal and Multifidus) were respectively 16 % and 18 % greater on the D-SEBECS in comparison to the stability ball. With these results, it would appear that the D-SEBECS compare favourably with the stability ball.

Other than the stability ball the D-SEBECS allows one to move in greater ranges of movement during dynamic exercises. In various sports one develops a dominant side and muscle imbalances in your body often occur. Exercising on the D-SEBECS will improve your strength (power), stability, endurance, balance, co-ordination and most importantly will correct the symmetry in your body that will improve your performance overall.

The CD shows various exercises of how one can use the D-SEBECS.

Would u be interested to buy this new device?

Your feedback on D-SEBECS would be greatly appreciated.

Kind regards.
