Benefits of Torqublade Exercise

Torqueblade training
A functional base for general all over body conditioning
 
Torqueblade training like any other physical activity will increase your performance.  The difference with Torqueblade training is that the goal is for a functional base to start from and return too, in your quest for fitness.  Train smarter, rather than harder!
 
This regime will not make you better at running, fighting, swimming (sports etc.) but will help develop a holistic system to help repair and prepare for the mentioned activities.
 
The exercises are set out in a manner which challenges the cardiovascular system and also develops strength to weight ratio.
 
The Indian club training motions significantly improve the mobilization of the shoulder girdle as the exercises take the shoulder through all of the ranges of motion, elevation, depression, abduction, adduction and rotation.
 
The full body exercises (inspired by medicine ball training, yoga and Filipino Martial arts) insure-with the use of the Torqueblade-a synergistic appreciation of body mechanics and lines of force.
 
The combination of both push your cardio vascular system to a state of being breathless but able to converse  (sub maximal of the Anaerobic threshold) every now and then stepping over in to your anaerobic threshold and developing a greater tolerance to work and clear lactic acid from your system.  This in turn prehabilitates you for adaptability in your environment.
 
 
The Combination of both challenges your musculoskeletal system in a manner conducive to a functional lifestyle the muscles not only strengthen but do not bulk up as the aim is not for size alone but strength to weight ratio, this creates lean long muscle (depending on your body type).
The benefits are:
 
 
 
 
Torqueblade for FMA
 
As many martial artists agree the use of weapons improves the body’s mechanics as the motions challenge the body’s equilibrium once these motions have been internalized the mechanics become tighter and the ability to adapt quickly has been improved.
 
When using a baton the understanding of lines of force is often lost for the beginner and many times for the advanced student.  A blade (albeit a refined blunt instrument) greatly improves the appreciation of lines of force and wrist alignment.
 
A balanced tool enhances mechanics and impact, but to challenge the mechanics and adaptability for impromptu weapons suggests that we train with multiple tools.  I suggest to you that we do not have the time or money to do this, so the Torqueblade was designed out of this necessity.
 
The Torqueblade challenges the grip and mechanics due to its shape, it is still light enough to use for many drills but can be adapted by adding the Companionblade in different combinations to offset the balance even more.  
The edict follows that if we train with a clumsy tool a balanced tool will be easier to wield.
 
Benefits:
 
·        Increased grip strength
·        Increased body awareness
·        Increased body mechanics
·        Greater appreciation of lines of force
