Core muscles stabilize the body in 3 planes:
(1) Frontal Plane - separates body into front-back Movements are lateral
(2) Sagittal Plane - separates body into right-left Movements are forward - backward
(3) Transverse Plane - separates body into top-bottom Movements involve rotation
Triplanar or multiplanar exercise forces the body to work in all 3 planes at once. The Super-Z uses a patented device called the TExAs, which stands for Triplanar Exercise Assist. The TExAs creates exercises that make the body strengthen and stabilize in all planes at once. Multiplanar exercise is the most efficient and beneficial type of exercise. The TExAs allows varying levels of instability depending on the client's needs and fitness level. Exercise levels can be changed quickly and easily. Stabilization exercises frequently entail difficult positioning and unsafe movements. The exercises in the Super-Z Strength and Stability Program always keep the client on or inches from a padded mat table, even when multiplanar exercise is performed with the upper body and lower body simultaneously. (called M2 exercise-pictured below).
Spinal stability requires coordination of the small muscles around the spine with the larger muscles along the spine. Just as a stable shoulder and pelvic girdle allow for advanced arm and leg movement, a stable spine allows the athlete to develop rotational power. Unfortunately, core stabilization is the most overlooked aspect of performance training. A lack of core strength/stability can cause long term motor skill problems, causing the body to adapt and find alternative ways to perform. While critical for high-level athletics, this stabilization is important for everyone. The Super-Z will allow a person of any level to begin a program of core stabilization. These progressive levels of stabilization are performed without compressive forces into the spine, hip, or knee joints.

M2 exercise shown. Total body suspension just inches over the mat. Knees, hands or feet can be put on the mat at any moment for stabilization. This is an ADVANCED exercise. PRO exercise level requires even more stabilization.
