Marc’s creations
Lebert EQualizer® was originally designed to perform a body weight rows in a group or home setting. The motivation for the Lebert EQualizer® was one of Marc’s in-home PT clients. She wanted to do pull-ups but she was not strong enough. Marc suggested a lat pulldown machine but she did not want to take up that much space or the expense so he built a prototype with a friend, which was heavy and unattractive to say the least! After months of practicing exercises on the bars and building different configurations he created the signature two bright yellow steel “EQ” bars that you see today.
The “EQ” has evolved to be one of the most versatile fitness products on the market today used for bodyweight exercises like dip/pushup/pullups, for calisthenics, as an agility ladder, for strtaching and more! The EQ is used by Group Fitness, Personal Training, schools, martial arts programs and is a favorite in bootcamps around the world!
The signature move of the EQ is the PULL-UP. Here’s what the PULL-UPS look like. I love to do one minute of pull-ups and one minute of combinations for a few rounds and really get the heart rate up! As you know bodyweight training is vital for building a foundation of strength and to develop neuromuscular control that will benefit you in most everything you do. For boot camps or small group training, the options are endless too. The EQ can be used as a standalone, in a circuit or combined with other programs/tools. Here are just two other EQ exercises that can be easily incorporate into any workout; HIP Extensions and Kneeling Tricep Extensions.
The Lebert Buddy System™ was inspired by finishing my “back days” with partner towels rows. This is when you and a partner hold the opposite ends of towel and row against each other (constant tension on both the eccentric and concentric phase) until you are completely fatigued. I wanted to build on that exercise by adding unilateral rowing with a pulley type system and I came up with a simple tweak that gives the Lebert Buddy System™ the ability to change tension simply by how hard you are pulling. How does this help you? This one exercise, the Uni-lateral Row can be used for warm-up; light tension to increase T-spine mobility, for the workout; row as hard as you can for a 2 min set, and/or as a finisher; long sets of muscle endurance!
The Lebert SRT Barbell™ was invented by a Lebert Fitness® Master Trainer - Nikos Daflidis - from Greece. This unique barbell has springs built in to it so that you can add adduction/abduction to basic barbell moves like bicep curls and shoulder press. This adds multiple planes of motion and makes the exercises more challenging for both the nervous and muscular system. Light, medium and strong springs allow for various levels of resistance. How does this help you? Barbells have already been a staple in fitness and we have just made them better and more useful as you can see here.
We have also launched, with great success, our new branded Lebert Training Systems (LTS)™ programming and Education. LTS™ Education courses are creative, cutting edge and highly effective. LTS™ education provides fitness professionals with all of the movement, training and coaching skills needed to conduct successful personal training, small group training and group fitness classes in an amazing variety of programs. All LTS™ programming is based on the science of body weight training and functional movement and is approved by ACE, AFAA and canfitpro. For more information click here.
