Blue’s rap on the Inversion Swing
The Inversion Swing is one of my all-time favorite Self-Maintenance Tools. Even if it wasn’t good for you to do I would probably still do it simply because it feels so good and it’s fun. I used to make my own out of ropes, rubber boat/dock bumper guards, carabineers, and foam pipe insulation.
Those worked fine but when I was given one of these deluxe, super comfy swings as a gift, I gave my home-made ones away. This Inversion Swing is the RollsRoyce of Inversion Swings. Well-made and extremely comfortable to hang in.
This type of Inversion, suspended by your pelvis with your legs in a frog position, is hard to beat. You can also spread your legs in a V.
If you have the space, I suggest adding a rope attached to a wall (the wall your back is facing when you’re hanging upside down), with a dowel about 18 or 20 inches long attached to it. You’ll pull yourself up the rope and grab the dowel; you’ll now be face-down, horizontal to the floor and be able to twist yourself from side to side, stretching your ribs apart, stretching your psoas muscles, and your entire spine, as well as opening your shoulders.
Nothing quite compares with that particular full-body multi-dimensional stretch!
The only consideration is having a place to safely attach the 2 eye-bolts required, to some kind of overhead beam. Anyone with any kind of mechanical know-how should be able to figure that out, and the rest of you can easily enlist the aid of a carpenter or someone else who can get you set up. Believe me when I tell you that it will be well worth the effort.
*And try to put it in a place where you can leave it up, so that it won’t be a bother to set it up and use it. Too many great ideas and tools wind up in the garage or the closet, out of sight, and never get utilized the way you intended them to be used when you acquired them.
