Spring Balance Beam | Outdoor Fitness Equipment

Fun and Effective Outdoor Fitness Equipment

Balance training is great for the body and can be fun for people of all ages. The spring balance beam is an effective piece of outdoor fitness equipment that requires coordination, balance, strength, and muscular endurance. Aside from walking on the balance beam, more advanced athletes can benefit from this piece of fitness equipment by performing push-ups, tricep dips or planks on the beams to further engage the core and train other muscle groups.

For basic usage, walk along the spring balance beam, engaging your core and checking your balance along the way if necessary. Perform several times, testing yourself by increasing speed each time. Add additional challenges by walking sideways to target the inner and outer thighs, backwards to target the hamstrings, on your toes to work the calves or by performing squats or lunges while moving down the length of the beams.
