Fitness gurus and medical practitioners are all in agreement that an inversion table is the best weapon for combating back pains. That being said, if you suffer from lower back pains, stress and compression fatigue an inversion table will be a great addition to your life. There are inversion tables of all kinds and prices ranging from cheap budget tables to high-end deluxe tables. Speaking of high-end tables, the Health Mark Pro Max is one of the best premium tables out there. Although this table is considerably costlier than other tables, its premium price tag is justified and here is why.

Features  61r8SSuKkNL._SL1434_

This Health Mark Pro table was originally designed for commercial use. As such, thanks to its unique design this inversion tables, this table can be used in either the face-up or face-down position. Another important design feature of this table is the foam padded back support. The table’s full arc handlebars make it easy to return from any angle. In addition to full arch handles, this table also features easy to access rear and front ankle bracelet. This table is the only one in its class capable of being inverted in a face-up or face-down position.

Constructed from heavy grade tubular steel, the Health Mark Pro is as sturdy as it is easy to operate. For ease of use, this table has six preset angles and a headrest. For added ease of use the rear and front ankle, supports are operated using a lock latch system and a comfortable ankle bracket.

Additionally, the latch lock system and ankle bracket offer sufficient safety for face-down inversion therapy. Rolled knee and thigh supports offer additional security.

Measuring 28 x 58 x 45 inches in width, height and diameter respectively, this inversion table is quite a large instrument. However, this is not a bad thing as its large size means that it can accommodate persons with a height of up to 6 feet 6 inches. Additionally, its tubular steel construction and large size give it the ability to accommodate persons weighing up to 600 pounds. This is a big plus if you have trouble using other standard inversion table.

Review of IRONMAN Gravity 4000 Highest Weight

by

Want to achieve improved body flexibility and relieve back pains? Well, an inversion table might just be what you are looking for. They come in hundreds of makes and models meant to suit different needs and budgets. I have done lots of research on the market to find the ideal model that is a perfect combination of affordability, maximum comfort and great functionality.

IRONMAN Gravity 4000 Highest Inversion Table stood out among my top selections. Below, I’m going to walk you through the top features that make this table one of the best deals on the market.

Durable steel construction

This inversion table is a perfect blend of maximum durability and sturdiness. The frame is made of heavy gauge steel and finished with a powder coating for improved scratch resistance. It can support a whopping 350 pounds, which gives you a clear picture of just how strong it is.

Memory foam padding upholstered in PVC

An aching back needs something soft and comfortable to rest on. Iron Fitness took this into consideration by including a padded backrest that can be set to a maximum inverted position of 180 degrees. Additional comfort is provided on the ankles by ergonomically molded cushions. The PVC upholstery provides ease of cleaning and maintenance.

Lightweight and easy to fold

An inversion table requires constant relocation from one point to another. And what better way to achieve this than by making it lightweight enough? Well, this table provides the convenience of a lightweight construction of only 75 pounds. It measures 26 x 65 x 49 inches. However, the size can be considerably reduced for convenient storage via a simple folding mechanism.

Non-slip base

The weight subjected on an inversion table can be quite great causing damage to the floor. This table prevents that by incorporating rubberized stabilizers that are easy on your floor finish. They provide better grip to eliminate any unwanted movement during use. This mechanism makes it a safe choice for inversion exercises.

Other features and specs

* 10-level locking mechanism
* Adjustable height up to 6’6’’
* Ratchet Ankle Locking mechanism

Customer reviews and scores

Before winding up my review, I think it would be a good idea to state the number of reviews and ratings given by customers who have bought and used this table. At the time of writing, IRONMAN Gravity 4000 had a total of 2,489 customer reviews. The table had an average score of 4.7 out of 5 stars which is the highest of any inversion table on the market.

Conclusion

Overall, IRONMAN Gravity 4000 Inversion Table provides great therapeutic benefits.

I recommend it to anyone looking for an ideal inversion table that provides maximum level of safety and comfort.

Body Champ Inversion Therapy Table

by

Body Champ is a well-known brand when it comes to sporting goods and equipment and this inversion table is no different. The quality of the materials used and the versatility of the table is really good, which does make it a great investment for any person not educated in the field of inversion tables or inversion therapy. Here are a few of the fundamentally important parts of the table that you should know before you buy:

Assembly process:

For shipping purposes, most train equipment is broken up into smaller pieces and you will need to go about assembling the product yourself. Many people sometimes stray away from these products for the fear of not being able to assemble the product, but with the Body Champ IT8070 inversion table, there will be no need to be afraid.

This inversion table is quite easy to assemble and the directions given are also quite clear and concise. The tools required to fully assemble the table is also included, but we are not completely happy with the utility tool included and you will be much better off heading to the hardware store and buying your own.

The inversion should not take much longer than 1-2 hours to completely assemble once you receive it and after that, it will be ready to use.  The inversion table is also quite heavy and weighs in at about 50lbs and the dimensions are 55 1/2 x 29 1/2 x 57 7/8 (L x W x H). Finding a suitable place to keep the inversion table might be your only challenge.

Build Quality:

The Body Champ IT8070 inversion table is one of the most lightweight inversion table, especially the frame. This does make the table easier to move, but the weight will be limited. The recommended weight limit on this inversion table is 250lbs, with 6”4’ being the maximum height. The construction is quite solid and once you are on the table, it will not shake or wobble, thus giving you more peace of mind and ensure better performance.

We highly recommend this inversion table for people of average build and medium weight to ensure that not too much strain is put on the table. There are; however, some bulkier inversion tables on the market for the heavier individuals, but they are also significantly more expensive than this Body Champ inversion table.

Another thing we take into consideration when looking at the build quality is the padding. Since you might be using this due to back problems or strains, you will want something that is not too hard and doesn’t put too much strain on the back. This is where this inversion table does excel and you will find that the comfortable padding will be ideal for prolonged exercises on the inversion table.

Adjustability:

While the inversion table does have a maximum height for you to take into consideration, it is also ideal for shorter individuals and since the table can be used by the entire family, you will need some way of adjusting the comfort to make it possible for everyone to use.

The Body Champ IT8070 makes adjustment easy during the assembly process if you are the only one planning to use it, but if you have more people planning on using it, you will need to adjust the footing and the ankle locking system as well. This process is actually quite easy and it should not take you more than 10 minutes to do.  The spring-loaded adjustment setting and special knop on the table and ankle support system will allow you to adjust the table to the perfect size for your needs. We do highly recommend that you always wear the safety strap, but this is even more important when adjusting the table for inversion.

Inversion process:

Body champ is not only easy to use, but also safe for beginners.  The table features a safety rod that will lock in place once you reach a certain level, but it can also be set to 140 degrees when not in use. The safety strap and handlebars will give you full control over the inversion process and you will be able to do this in an easy and manageable way.

To get back into the starting position, the U-shaped handrails will be ideal for helping you get back up and while you might have a few scares at the start when you are not used to this, you will find yourself enjoying it more and more as you get used to the table.

For beginners, we recommend using the tether strap, this will allow you to set the degrees of incline and the shorter the strap, the less inclined you will have. This strap is great for getting more comfortable and eventually proceeding to full incline and relieving as much stress and tension in the back as possible.

Ankle support:

Nothing will be more frustrating that relieving back pain, only for your ankles to take some strain and eventually hurt. Unfortunately, ratchet locking ankle clamps cannot be fitted to the table and this has been left out to make the inversion table a little more affordable. Instead, you will get 4 decent foam rollers with extra padding for you to slip your ankles into.

These ankle rollers are actually quite comfortable and the pain experienced from them were largely varied from individual to individual. The people who did feel some pain were largely affected due to having previous ankle injuries and surgeries or being a little too heavy for the ankles to hold the weight and push through the padding of the rollers.

With the addition of the safety strap, you should not have to worry too much about this. If you do not have any previous ankle problems and you are below the recommended weight limit, the 4 padded rollers will keep you secure without doing damage to your ankles.

Safety:

As we have mentioned in all of the preceding sections, the Body Champ IT8070 does have a decent safety strap for your comfort and to ensure you do not fall off. The inversion table also features a good and easy-to-adjust handle bar that will accommodate all sizes under the recommended height and the added tether strap should be ideal when it comes to regulating the angle of inclination.

As far as safety, this inversion table will be good for anyone in the family, given that you do not exceed the recommendations. We still recommend that children do not use this table without parent supervision as they might not understand and take all of the safety precautions before using it.

Overall, we do highly rate this inversion table in terms of safety for everyone in the family to use.

Storage:

The storage part of this table is quite tricky and it is not that easy to do if it is not in use. The table does take up a lot of space and this might make it hard to keep out of sight. With the table itself, being adjustable, you will be able to store things underneath the table and sometimes on top of it, but it will be hard to hide when guests are coming.

Luckily, the table is not too heavy and can easily be moved to the garage or to another room when it is not in use.

Pros:

  • Decent safety lock will allow you to secure movements and an adjustable height boom makes it ideal for everyone in the family.
  • Easy to reach handrails and thanks to the specially designed U-shape, these handrails will always be in reach and easy for you to get back upright.
  • Lightweight design and frame makes it easier to move somewhere out of the way and might give you some more flexibility in terms of storage.
  • Decent tether strap for beginners to get past the fear of using the table and relief back pain gradually.

Cons:

  • Ankle lock pin is placed very low, which does make it hard to reach and you will need to bend over all the way to reach it.
  • Useless tool included that will make the assembly process quite tricky and timely and might even cost you buy a new tool at the hardware store.
  • Low-density foam rollers might sometimes cause discomfort for those with weak ankles or ankle problems during the inversion therapy.

Is it worth the price?

Coming in at less than $300, the Body Champ IT8070 inversion table is one of the more affordable options on the market, granted you are not more than 250lbs. This table provides good versatility and anyone in the family should be comfortable when it comes to using it. We do highly recommend it for the value and for the price.

 

Ironman Inversion Table

by

The ironman inversion table allows for people who suffer from back problems to flip upside-down, reducing the pressure on painful vertebrae and increasing the circulation of the body. It can significantly boost the healing to painful portions of the back, and it can give your body a lot of other health benefits if used regularly. Most people can safely use it, but if they are unsure, getting approval from a doctor first is always a beneficial option.

The Overall Benefits of Using an Ironman Inversion Table

One of the most common benefits of an Ironman Inversion Table is the relaxation that it offers the body when in use, and following use. It helps the body relax simply by the positioning, and it reduces the stress that the body feels from everyday movements. Most Ironman Inversion Tables also come with a special pillow that will support the lumbar region of your spine, holding it in the proper alignment while you are inverted so as not to cause excess pain.

Another benefit of the Ironman Inversion Table is the anti-aging effects that it provides, by allowing your body to have an effect that is the opposite of what it would normally experience due to gravity. This can reduce the amount of wrinkles and sagging you would naturally experience, and help you stay looking younger for a longer period of time.

Most people who use an Ironman Inversion Table regularly also notice their body having more longevity and endurance in athletics. Using this table on a regular basis can improve overall flexibility and circulation, giving you the ability to perform longer than before you used the table. The improved circulation also allows your body to begin healing after any type of an injury, more quickly than it would be able to do on its own.

The Drawbacks of An Ironman Inversion Table

One of the biggest drawbacks of these types of tables is the weight. Most of these tables range from just under 50 pounds to over 100 pounds. This can make assembly difficult, especially for those suffering from any type of back injury. This can also make moving the unit around difficult without increasing the risk of reinjuring yourself. Another drawback to some of these units is their overall size. Some of them fold up to be able to make storing them easy, but others stay open and in the way, even when not in use. The other potential problem with an Ironman Inversion Table is that it has the potential to increase one’s blood pressure, so it should only be used after a doctor says that it is safe.

Overall the benefits that come along with using an Ironman Inversion Table are great for many people. There are quite a few options in material, allowing them to be beneficial to anyone that is 6’6″ or smaller. There are safety features that make it to where you cannot get stuck. It is a safe option for most people to use, and as long as people are not trying to move it around regularly or assemble it after an injury, should be the perfect way to add benefit to their lives without the concern of experiencing any additional injuries.
