DIRECTIONS FOR USE
To ensure good buoyancy and stability, it is advisable to only have one person on the mat and a maximum weight of 90KG.
To perform your Aquafitness exercises with confidence and find your point of balance, either sitting or standing, position yourself in the middle of your O'MAT mat, which is indicated with Nabaiji markings.
SET UP TIPS
We recommend setting up the OMAT 1.5 m from the edges of your pool for your safety. We recommend attaching the mat to a fixed support, by using your pool ladder as an anchor point, for example. Your straps must be sufficiently tight so that your mat does not drift during your session.
INFLATING THE MAT
Quick and easy to inflate.
We recommend inflating your water fitness mat to between 13 and 15 PSI to practice your activity in all confidence and safety.
USE THE WATER’S INSTABILITY
The floating aquatic mat uses the water’s instability to strengthen your posture and tone your muscles deep down. Its wide rectangular surface helps you to perform Fitness exercises on the surface of the water and uses your core strength with each movement. Perfect for coordination and muscle training exercises. Suitable for gentle and intensive aquatic activities.
THE POSITION TO ADOPT FOR THE EXERCISES AND A FEW EXERCISE EXAMPLES BELOW
Basic position: Position yourself standing up in the middle of the mat, on the Nabaiji branding, facing one of the tethered ends of the mat connected with the strap. Keep your back straight, your feet pelvis width apart and your knees slightly bent.
EXERCISE NO.1: TEST YOUR BALANCE WITH ROCKING MOVEMENTS
> Adopt the basic position
> Press with the sole of your feet alternately on each side of the mat
> Gradually increase the speed, to feel your deep muscles contracting.
EXERCISE NO.2: STRENGTHEN YOUR THIGHS AND BUTTOCKS IN UNSTABLE POSITIONS
> Adopt the basic position
> While looking far ahead, bend your legs until your thighs are parallel with the mat, then stand back up straight.
EXERCISE NO.3: STRENGTHEN YOUR WHOLE BODY
> Lie down lengthwise on your O'MAT mat, supporting yourself on your forearms and toes, then hold your body in the plank position for several seconds
