Forces on the body

The maximum forces during Galileo Training amount to 130% of body weight.  A value of 100% corresponds to the body weight (when training without additional loads).

The following diagram shows typical measurement results of maximum forces per leg during Galileo Training compared with everyday movements (expressed as a multiple of g in body weight – a value of 1 is equivalent to a 1-fold body weight). It is obvious how small these maximum forces are compared to everyday movements such as walking, rising from a chair, climbing stairs, jumping on one leg or jumping on both legs.
