Abstract

A fitness system including a suit, a fixation system, and attachment locations on the fixation system. The attachment locations are located at the neck, shoulders, chest, waist, and knees. The fitness system also includes bands that are attached to the attachment points on the upper and lower torso. The upper torso band traverses behind the neck or posterior shoulders to the front waist to engage the rear deltoid, the upper back and the lower back. The upper torso band may also traverse under the armpit to the rear waist to engage the front deltoid, the chest, and the abdominals. The lower torso band traverses the rear waist over the front of each thigh to below the knee to engage the gluteus, the hamstring and the flexion of the upper leg, or under the thigh to below the knee to engage the quadriceps and the extension of the upper leg.
