Bodyblade®
Bodyblade®, the patented, revolutionary workout system for fast, effective muscle strengthening, power development, core stabilization and toning, was invented by California physical therapist, Bruce Hymanson.

Hymanson sought to create an exercise regimen that would train the muscles supporting the trunk (core) including those around the shoulders and into the lower extremities without forcing the joints to initially go through a wide range of motion, thus minimizing pain. Bodyblade's® low level vibration or oscillating motion forces the postural and shoulder muscles, as well as hundreds of other muscles, to contract 270 times a minute. Hymanson has taken this efficient yet effective movement and incorporated it into more than thirty expandable exercises designed to not only rehabilitate, but also provide a fast and fun workout routine for individuals of all ages and abilities. Since it hit the market in 1991, Bodyblade's® reception has been tremendous & more than a half-million units have been sold worldwide.

To order, or for more information, go to Bodyblade's® website, www.bodyblade.com, or call 800-77BLADE. Have your PREFERRED member number available to receive your PREFERRED discount.
