The getback Cervical Rotation Device can look daunting, but it’s the safest and most effective way to strengthen and improve the range of your neck.

The device is so effective, it has been utilised for an RAAF program by the Air Combat Group.

Called Fighter Fit, the program focuses on conditioning, maintenance, and if necessary, rehabilitation. It is not uncommon for RAAF fast-jet aircrew to sustain neck injuries, as the weight of helmets and displaced centre of gravity places considerable strain on a pilot’s neck and upper back.

Thanks to the Move for Life - getback Mentone team for producing this video explaining how the Cervical Rotation device functions.

Venus Martin has a tendency to get carried away when she’s ‘on a mission’.

But the former flight attendant’s usual brightness was dimmed when she developed severe back pain after hosting a family Christmas last year.

‘I was so focused on “my mission” to clean and put everything away and I was standing the whole time.’

After the party, she went to bed and ‘couldn’t move.’

‘I couldn’t turn my body,’ she recalls. ‘I thought maybe after waking up, I’d be okay.’

‘But I had difficulty getting up in the morning, which is not normal for me. I had to take it very slowly because my back was really painful.’

After several days of painkillers and massage, the pain was still persistent.

‘Before I thought, when you overdid something, you’ll be okay after a few days. But not this time.’

After a shocking x-ray and constant pain for years, Kristina found a path to recovery at getback.

Beginning with hands-on therapy to alleviate nerve pressure and correct spinal misalignments, she began a gradual process to improve strength and mobility in her spine’s supporting muscles for long-term relief.

Kristina says that at times over the years she worried that she ‘would never, ever be back to normal again.’

‘Now 15 years have passed since the last x-rays and the nice outcome is that even with ageing, there has been an improvement in my back.’

Kristina says she now does ‘all my normal daily life things. I drive a car, I swim regularly, I walk a lot.’

After 40 our training goals are achievable with SMART strategies. Most importantly, start with realistic goals tailored to your lifestyle and current fitness level.

Setting Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-bound (SMART) goals will help maintain your motivation and allow you to track your progress.

Get SMART with getback
getback™ programs are by definition a SMART way to achieve strength and mobility goals for people over 40.

Importantly, getback exercise devices include in-built protocols to guarantee a safe and effective transition into strength and mobility training.

The devices adapt load in real time based on your recorded strength and mobility data to ensure gradual, safe progress without overloading the joints.
You begin with clear strength and mobility targets and can track your progress to a defined finish line.

Ultimately, getback™ programs align perfectly with the mindset shift after 40 - less ego, more intent. It's not about doing more, but doing what matters, SMARTer.

getback™ ticks every box of the SMART framework by helping people over 40 train smarter, recover better and live stronger, well beyond their forties.

If you’re over 40 and looking for exercise to prioritise, strength training takes the cake. Re-activating or maintaining muscle strength is the foundation for staying active and injury-free as you age.

After 40, muscle loss (sarcopenia) starts to creep in, leading to weaker bones, slower metabolism, loss of function and increased risk of falls.

Strength training counteracts this by preserving lean muscle, improving bone density and keeping joints healthy. It also enhances balance, which reduces the risk of injury.

Strength training also boosts metabolism (helping with weight management), enhances insulin sensitivity (reducing diabetes risk), and even improves mental health.

The bottom line is: strength training is about staying functional and resilient for life. And the best part? With more sophisticated training devices and technology, you won’t need to spend hours in a sweaty gym.

How getback exercise devices use isoinertial loading

getback™ exercise devices use isoinertial loading to safely and effectively strengthen muscles supporting the spine, *hip, knee and shoulder. The devices adapt load to the user’s strength in real time to improve muscle strength and mobility without excessive strain on the joints.

The getback devices provide resistance throughout your full range of movement, both in the concentric (lifting) and eccentric (lowering) phases. This means the muscles remain engaged in a controlled, fluid motion, reducing the risk of sudden overload.

The isoinertial technology built into getback devices allows patients with back, hip, knee or shoulder pain or weakness to build strength safely, to improve everyday function or rehabilitate from joint replacement surgery.

*Knee, hip and shoulder exercise devices are coming soon to getback South Melbourne.

A Belgian study of back pain found that exercise therapy using the same devices as getback delivered improved mobility, strength and higher return-to-work rates.

‘Our perspective is that exercise should be categorised into strength training and lumbar spine stabilisation programs (including motor control exercises).’

The study recommended:

- Engaging in at least 1 to 2 training sessions per week
- Limiting session duration to less than 60 minutes
- Focusing on core-based, strength, or mind–body exercises
- Implementing training programs that span 3 to 9 weeks.
