How does the Vasa Trainer work?
The Vasa Trainer uses your own body weight as resistance, which is one of the safest, smoothest and most natural forms of exercise available. By raising your body up a variable incline against gravity, the Vasa Trainer utilizes your body weight to increase strength and fitness.

Getting started is simple. Sit, kneel or lie on the padded bench and pull on the handles attached to the pulley cable or webbing straps mounted to the front of the Vasa Trainer.

The seat carriage has four durable Delrin rollers with bearings, which provide an extremely smooth rolling action along the monorail. Once you complete the exercise in a full range of motion, use your muscles to slowly and safely lower your body weight down the inclined monorail. This engages the eccentric or "negative" muscle contractions, scientifically proven to dramatically increase strength.

Training with the Vasa Trainer allows a wide range of resistance options, progressing from near zero resistance for range of motion exercises to maximally challenging for strength building. There are 6 ways to adjust the resistance and the function of your workouts.
