Introduction

Torqueblade is one of the most economical ways to effectively increase levels of strength to weight ratio and endurance in other words lean body mass and sleek muscles.

 

 

Become the natural, adaptable, sleek creature we were designed to be.

 

Torqueblade training is a synthesis of fitness methodologies.

This amalgamation is firmly rooted in principles of functional fitness.

 

"In the struggle for survival, the fittest win out at the expense of their rivals because they succeed in adapting themselves best to their environment."

 

The Torqueblade has been specifically designed to be an awkward implement. An unbalanced tool challenges grip, coordination and body mechanics. Once these challenges have been over come, the quicker one can adapt. To allow adaptability to flourish a training tool with the ability to increase and decrease its load would be ideal. This is why the Torqueblade has a companion blade (which can stand alone in knife drills) to be used as an attachment to increase the weight of the Torqueblade (if needed). 

 

The exercises have been designed to challenge the bodies’ equilibrium under duress of torsion. Torsion is the rotational force generated about a fixed point. Torsion is required to develop linear force.

Force is Power and Power is strength to develop and maintain motion or the cessation of motion.

 

Originally the Torqueblade was designed to improve my martial training and adaptability for impromptu weapons use. However, the exercises I developed have no specific martial content and are easy for anybody to learn. The gross body mechanics are similar enough to enhance overall body conditioning for various sports and other physical past times including Martial Arts.
