Medical Exercise Specialist
“The fact that it is scaleable for any user is wonderful. I have taken a 68-year-old stroke client straight to a high level triathlete. The core activation in the standing position is unlike anything I have found in my 20+ years in medical exercise."
PGA TOUR Sports Medicine Team
“I highly recommend Corestix to anyone wanting a safe, efficient, compact and highly effective way to engage not only core muscles, but all major muscle groups as well. Hats off to Mike and Kregg on a truly innovative and superb product!”
Physical Therapist at the UPMC Center
"Core Stix is a very versatile piece of equipment that does not take up a lot of space in the clinic. It mimics functional movement patterns unlike a lot of the weight equipment that is found in gyms. This allows a carry over to real movement patterns in your patient’s rehabilitation."
Orthopedic Physical Therapy Residency at USC
"Patients at our facility find it easy to learn each movement and enjoy the unique nature of the movements they are performing on the Core Stix platform. Core Stix has added high levels of patient satisfaction and diversity to our facility."
Core Stix Power User
“If you do what you have always done, you’ll get what you’ve always got”. Core Stix has changed up everything for me. My workouts are harder and more dynamic than ever. I’m ALWAYS excited for class and motivated to do the work, and the results speak for themselves. Stronger, leaner, smaller, more flexible, more endurance (did I mention I was able to do 50 burpees?!?!), more confidence and extreme improvement in my balance.”
Bend Stir and Sweat
"A challenging and effective strength and flexibility workout of smooth sweeping movements and progressive resistance. I felt no need to hit the gym after this. The DVD workout, designed with Hollywood celebrity trainer Gunner Peterson, leads you through a functional core-centric adventure that hits all body parts. When done, the platform and rods easily slip under a bed or into a closet."
Black N Gold Girls
“Everything has improved.. my balance, stability, flexibility, mental clarity but most of all my confidence! Additionally, I have more overall energy, sleep soundly though the night and wake up refreshed no longer with aches and pains! Core Stix kept me in a ‘challenge and support’ state. Once you get a feel for the Stix and trust them, you can really start to go deeper into each workout!”
Hot New Workout Gear
"The newest gym machine doesn’t have a single high-tech feature (heck, it doesn’t even require electricity), but it could revolutionize your workout. Unlike tubing or dumbbells—where the tension decreases as you lower the band or weight—the sticks provide constant resistance, so your muscles work harder during every exercise."

PRESIDENT/CEO, PHYSICAL THERAPY SERVICES
We have found Core Stix to be a wonderful product for our entire patient population, including most all of our ortho/sports patients, post-surgery patients, total joint (total hip, total knee) replacement patients, patients with balance issues, and our neuro patients. I do not think we have a more functional piece of equipment in our clinic than Core Stix, and it is probably the most functional piece of equipment you will find in the entire CSM exhibit hall. And, the only limitation in using it is your imagination - you can adapt Core Stix to just about any situation.

OWNER, DUGAN THERAPY & FITNESS
Our new Core Stix One unit just came yesterday. We have it set up and in use, and it is already a big hit with our staff and patients. I do not generally endorse products, but Core Stix is a winner.
OWNER, [RE+ACTIVE] PHYSICAL THERAPY & WELLNESS
I love the versatility of Core Stix for balance, strengthening and functional exercises for clients with neurologic disorders. It is unique in that you can provide both a point of stability and challenge postural control at the same time – crucial for this population. It can also be used to assist an activity like in an assisted squat, lunge or sit to stand or provide resistance, depending on the client’s level of ability. We have clients that ask to come in for wellness activities, just to use Core Stix.

I'm 55, and I've exercised my whole life. I've used it all: free weights, Nautilus, Universal, body weight, Bowflex, P90X, Insanity, Cybex (all work to differing degrees and have their own merits), but I can honestly say that in three months of working out on Core Stix, I have increased my overall strength, increased my core strength, increased my flexibility, have a better overall feeling of health, exercised muscles I didn't know I had and I've had a blast doing it! Plus, I'm doing it in less time!
