Training equipment

Start with your goal and current level. For strength, bands and a pair of dumbbells are often enough. For mobility and recovery, foam rollers, massage balls, and yoga mats are safe choices. For balance and coordination, balance boards and gym balls work. Plan two to three training sessions per week and only increase the difficulty level when your technique feels stable.

Choose equipment that allows controlled movements with a low to moderate load. Exercise bands, mini balls, balance boards, and a light dumbbell make it easy to work on mobility, activation, and stability without provoking pain. Start in a pain-free range, increase gradually, and let technique guide the volume. In case of acute or increasing pain, you should contact a healthcare professional.

Yes, many types of exercise equipment are used in rehabilitation to gradually build strength, mobility, and stability. The choice of equipment and load should be adapted to the individual's conditions and any complaints.

Exercise equipment can be used regularly as part of training or rehabilitation. It is important to vary the load, give the body time to recover, and adjust the training in case of pain or fatigue.

The resistance should be chosen based on your current strength and the purpose of the exercise. It is often better to start with lighter resistance and gradually increase the load as control and technique allow.

Yes, provided the choice is well thought out and the progression is gradual. Start with light bands, seated exercises, or the support of a chair, and position yourself close to a wall for balance moments. Focus on control, breathing, and pain-free range. Consult your healthcare provider if you have long-term problems or have recently undergone surgery.
