Description Features Sizing Resources A BlackBoard Extension Set for Improved Performance The sole of your foot is constantly sending messages to your central nervous system (CNS) to inform it about its position, the ground below it, and any movements it makes. Sensitized information in your feet will ensure that your CNS can send even more precise feedback to your muscles. In other words, trained feet react faster, keep your body in better balance, and help prevent injuries. You can build these important skills by using BlackBoard PerformanceBars. The flat and tapered wedges that make up this helpful BlackBoard Basic extension set specifically train your foot’s reflexes for optimal performance. Helps Enhance Motor Skills, Improves Reaction Time & Reflexes Indeed, performing foot exercises on the tapered edge of BlackBoard PerformanceBars helps train your motor skills, improves your reaction time, and optimizes reflexes in your lower extremity. This, in turn, yields higher-quality footfalls and foot placement—ideal outcomes for those looking to improve performance and avoid injury during athletic participation. Each set of BlackBoard PerformanceBars comes with one long PerformanceBar, two short PerformanceBars, and a detailed user’s manual that shows all the various exercises you can perform with these extension bars.
