Core-Tex™

We put together a sample of some of the MANY applications possible with the reactive environment of Core-Tex.  Looking for:

  • Mobility?
  • Metabolic work?
  • Shoulder rehab?
  • Hip rehab? 
  • Strength?
  • Core work?

You can do it with Core-Tex!!!!

Ankle sprains represent one of the largest, if not the largest occurring injury in collegiate sports.  Ligament sprains of the ankle also effect all demographics with poor rehabilitation of the initial injury being a leading risk factor for recurring sprains.

Loss of dorsi flexion due to sub-optimal articulation of the ankle mortise frequently occurs following ankle sprains. Additionally, research has shown the significance of hip strength in preventing ankle sprains.

Watch how the motion of Core-Tex and the smoothness of the motion allows for a very unique way of addressing both dorsi flexion AND hip involvement at the same time.  

This is a great way to get your hands off your patient or athlete and let them work independently combining range of motion and neuromuscular control.  A win win!

An exercise environment that moves in the transverse plane is a game changer. Use these 5 exercises to spice up any workout combining core work, strength and metabolic demand.
If you really want optimal shoulder health, than the dance that the scapula does on the back of your rib cage is the motion that dictates the playing field.  In this video, we take a very fit professional personal trainer, with a history of a distal left pectoralis tear-through a full protocol of scapulo-thoracic mobility and integration.
The Glute Bridge aka Hip Bridge or Hip Thrust is a very popular and effective exercise.  This sagittal plane movement is great for targeting the posterior chain.  But what happens when you "super-size" the demand on the posterior hip by driving variable vector forces into the hip from the torso motion on Core-Tex?  A completely unique challenge to the neuro-muscular system for stability and strength gains not found with any other product.  Add a familiar tool you are probably already using to further vary the environment. 
We always say, Core-Tex plays well with others.  As a reactive environment, you can mix and match many of your favorite tools with Core-Tex to enhance and/or vary the challenge.  In this video, Core-Tex inventor Anthony Carey and Halo inventor Bryce Taylor have some fun integrating both products into a workout.  

Looking for movements that feel good and support spinal health? These six Core-Tex exercises provide gentle yet effective strategies to reduce muscle tension and activate key stabilizers for lower back health.

This is a blast from the past.  Derrick Price, our first Core-Tex Master Trainer, international educator and industry leader shares with you 25 plank variations and progressions using the original Core-Tex.  

Take the tired old plank and see how adding reactive variability using the Core-Tex motion changes the game.

Derrick takes you through multiple levels with the help of his clients of varying abilities. Core-Tex core work can go from remedial to the most advanced all the while challenging the neuromusculoskeletal system with variability not created with any other environment.  

We have the honor of sharing with you some hip rehab applications sent to us by physical therapist Bryce Taylor.  Bryce shares with us:

"I have a unique opportunity to capture overhead views at my clinic and for the Core-Tex, this makes sense.  I've been working with this gentleman for several hip-related cases to restore functional mobility and return him to competitive distance running.  He has had surgeries for labral tears and hip impingement.  In this case, the Core-Tex has aided in self-administered and guided multi-planar end range of motion of the hip and lower kinetic chain.  I like that they can freely explore within the limits of their own subjective boundaries and that, I believe, can have more impact than passive motion."

This 30 second combo of mountain climbers, push-ups and wrestler spins is a great way to keep members and coaches engaged and challenges the decision making and neuromuscular reaction of the participants.  Try it and see how fast the heart rate climbs!

A traditional yoga flow can be progressed by using the Core-Tex platform to introduce some reactive variability to the body. Using the handrail for added stability-the tilt, slide and translation of Core-Tex can create an entirely novel user experience.

By introducing the transverse plane alone to these moves, the body's muscles, joints and righting reflexes are challenged in ways unique to the Core-Tex experience. 
This is another great example of how the environment created by Core-Tex can be applied to an incredible number of fitness and rehabilitative objectives.
