ONGO® Move - Exercise program

The ONGO® Seat promotes active sitting to ease tension, strenghten the muscle groups in the back, and improve overall posture. It is a fun way to build exercise into your everyday life, not only improving posture, but also boosting energy levels and concentration. As part of the product development process, the Institute for Movement Analysis at Kaiser-

Karl-Klinik in Bonn, Germany, took biometric measurements and conducted patient trials. Their findings:

Increased mobility was proven after just four weeks of active use of the ONGO® Seat. This exercise program was developed based on these medical findings. Simple exercises with the ONGO® Seat can help you start off on a targeted, effective spinal training regimen.

Exercise programs

The back is made up of various muscle groups, which perform different functions. Our exercises are designed with this in mind, so that you can put together the best training program to suit your individual needs.
The ONGO® Seat helps you maintain good posture and enhances both strength training and stretching exercises. Although the main focus is on the muscles of the back, you can also use the ONGO® Seat to exercise many other areas of your body. For example, abdominal exercises help you to strenghten the part of the body that "opposes" the back muscles; together, these two muscle groups stabilize the spine and take pressure off the back. The exercises in the beginning program ONGO® Move Basic cover all of the major muscle groups.

The exercises vary in difficulty from S1  (easy) to S4 (challenging).The ball in the ball track helps you with every exercise. Many of the exercises are based on maintaining a stable, balanced position in which the ball is supposed to remain silent in a single location within the track. To ensure that you have optimum control of the ball, first bring it to a quiet starting position between your feet. If the ball begins to move from side to side or to rotate during an exercise and it is not explicitly supposed to move during that exercise, you know that you are not yet performing the exercise exactly right.
