4-Segment CoordinationProgram (item no. 202) When using the 4-Segment CoordinationProgram you have the possibility to specifically target and train in individual directions and toward muscle groups specifically. In this context various training tasks require different input, such as strength, endurance, coordination and concentration.
Page 45
The 4 different segments (»push«, »down«, »pull« and »up«) can be trained separately, with each other or in different combinations (2 or 3 segments combined). A special success bar gives continuous feedback during training about how adequate you fulfill the task (given by the segment combination) (fig.
Page 46
In order to train a sequence of different segment versions (or training tasks) you can create an optional program on your own (chapter »edit programs«, page 24). If you wish to adjust training tasks during the training, you need to be in the expert mode: fig.
