ROC-IT™ 301
C HES T PRESS
The ROC-IT™ 301 Chest Press places
the user in a start position with the
arm handles aligned at chest level,
rocking rearward to an end position
with the arm handles aligned with the
chin mimicking the natural angular or
ached press movement from the chest.
The arm handles accommodate a
neutral or overhand grip position while
the foot assist bar facilitates optimal
positioning of arm handles to control
the degree of chest stretching desired.
This reduces the stresses placed
upon the anterior shoulder capsule
associated with horizontal extension
and internal rotation of the arm.
ROC-IT™ 401
LEG EXTENSION
The ROC-IT™ 401 Leg Extension
places the user in a slight forward
lean with hips lowered below the
knees in the start position and rocks
rearward moving the user to a end
position allowing greater range of
motion and a more natural hinge
movement which reduces shearing
forces and stresses on the knee joint.
The rearward rock lowers the hips
to maintain a posterior pelvic tilt to
better load the Quadriceps group and
reduce low back muscle involvement
typically seen with traditional leg
extension machines. The easy-to-use
adjustable back pad accommodates
different upper limb lengths while the
self-adjusting roller accommodates
different lower limb lengths to reduce
potential stress across the ankle joint.
