The GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM® stretches and strengthens muscles, while simultaneously stimulating and strengthening connective tissues in and around the joints of the body thus increasing range of motion and coordination. The GYROTONIC® exercises are performed on the Pulley Tower, and the system is fully adjustable and can meet the needs of many people with varying body types and levels of strength. The constant hydraulic-like resistance in the handle unit and pulley tower completely eliminates the jarring that takes place at the beginning and end of exercises performed on conventional exercise equipment, when many injuries occur. The exercises, synchronized with corresponding breathing patterns, enhance aerobic and cardiovascular stimulation and promote neuromuscular rejuvenation. Unique to the GYROTONIC® excercise is the circular, spiraling and undulating movements that increase the functional capacity of the spine and create a spherical and three-dimensional awareness, resulting in total equilibrium.

GYROKINESIS® exercises are the root of the GYROTONIC® work but are practiced while seated on a stool or mat. GYROKINESIS® exercises allow one to work on the entire body through seven natural elements of spinal movement: forward, backward, left side, right side, left twist, right twist and circular, as well as all other joint articulation. This approach systematically and gently works the joints and muscles through rhythmic and undulating movements. These movements stimulate the body's internal organs while different corresponding breathing patterns are integrated along with the movements.
