The GoFit Glute Blaster is a belted tube resistance trainer designed to sculpt and shape your glutes and strengthen lower body muscles. It is intended as part of a total exercise regimen and comes with a training manual outlining various exercises and usage guidelines.
Function Description:
The Glute Blaster utilizes resistance tubing attached to a belt worn around the waist or hips and foot straps. This setup provides resistance for a variety of lower body exercises, targeting the glutes, hamstrings, and core. The manual details exercises such as Glute Kick Ups, Toe Touches, Kick Outs, Spider Man, Leg Lifts, In & Outs, Flutters, Abdominal Crunch, and Bicycle Crunch, each designed to engage different muscle groups and improve strength and toning. The resistance from the tubes helps to intensify these movements, making them more effective for muscle development.
Usage Features:
- Attachment and Adjustment:
- The belt is pulled through a buckle with the GoFit logo facing out.
- It is tightened comfortably around the waist or hips, then fastened with Velcro, ensuring the buckle rests on either side of the hip, not directly on it.
- The resistance tubes are slid so that the GoFit belt attachments align with the middle of each glute.
- To attach the foot straps, one kneels down and firmly pulls the foot strap at the base of the tube towards the corresponding foot. The padded side of the foot strap is placed under the arch of the foot, stepped on securely, and the Velcro is fastened on top of the foot with the GoFit logo facing up. The process is then repeated for the other leg.
- Workout Guidelines:
- The manual provides recommended workout guidelines based on fitness level: Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced.
- Beginner: 1-2 times weekly, 1 set of 8-12 repetitions.
- Intermediate: 2-3 times weekly, 2 sets of 10-16 repetitions.
- Advanced: 3 times weekly, 3 sets of 10-16 repetitions.
- A 30-second rest is recommended between each set.
- General Tips for Use:
- Listen to your body and discontinue if you feel undue pain.
- Always maintain proper form and technique.
- Be patient and persistent, as building strength takes time.
- Stay hydrated (have water ready) and use a towel.
- Focus on breathing: inhale when the muscle lengthens, exhale when the muscle shortens (exhale on the exertion).
- Stretch upon completion of your workout.
- When first attempting any exercise, use caution and determine your physical limitations. Always start at a level that allows you to complete the recommended reps and sets.
- The Glute Blaster should only be used for its intended purpose as outlined in the training manual.
