Fitness Pro says, ” the Rotater is Awesome “
May 16, 2010
Recently, I had the opportunity to get the Rotater to Joey Atlas to use, evaluate and share with his clients. So, who is Joey Atlas?
- a health and fitness professional with a MS in Exercise Physiology
- the Amazon.com bestselling author of ‘Fatness to Fitness’ and several other successful programs
- former consultant to Pepsi-Cola’s Corporate Fitness Program
- inventor of the Atlas Gym Unit and his own organic fitness drink – Atlas Juice
Fitness Pro - Joey Atlas
Joey Atlas’ Response to the Rotater
“Just had a chance to take a close look at the Rotater. I must let you know – over the years I’ve been asked to evaluate many products and devices. Many have been ‘ok’ and a few have been great. I have to categorize the Rotater as awesome, plain and simple… And here’s why.
My experience in the rehab and fitness field has taken me many places and exposed me to many different people and programs. One of those being the golf and tennis crowd. Both in rehab and post rehab (performance).
I’ve always been big on proper shoulder conditioning. And developed my own protocols and ‘methods’ with tools that already existed. What the Rotater does is allow me to develop programs for clients – and, most importantly, give them one tool to allow them to continue with their program.
Adherence is a huge challenge in our field and anything that can get a patient or client to stick with their program when they go off on their own is absolutely priceless. The Rotater allows this to happen perfectly. It removes so many obstacles – and promotes long term results and improvements.
As an inventor and product developer myself, I must tip my hat to you in a big way for creating something so simple in concept yet so versatile in practice and valuable in terms of transitioning a client to doing their own training for long term performance and fitness.”
All the best,
Joey Atlas

Shoulder Rehab for a Powerlifter
April 26, 2010
Powerful Testimonial from a Powerlifter
I recently received the following testimonial from powerlifter, Warren Moore.
“.. basically was doing my normal Max Effort bench work.. working up with 405lbs and on the 4th rep my right shoulder folded and the weight crashed on me..Could not move my arm for awile..
Rotator cuff had some major trauma.. no tear ( thank God)… Ordered the Rotater from you about a week later.. trained with it 3 times a week 20 minutes each session. Had some good mobility about 1 to 2 weeks later.. did alot of rear cuff work and ant cuff work.. just trying to get flexibility..about 3 weeks later .. I was back at the bench.. very light about 95lbs or so..
The Rotater is Awesome!
The Rotater is awesome.. really gave me the strength and (courage) to press on with my training.. Very easy to use and works!.. Im about 90% now..(its only been about 4 months) and no pain and my shoulder feels much stronger than it ever has.
Thanks again for a great product.. Take care Chris.. ”
Customer for life,

Functional Correction – a Manual for Improvement
April 19, 2010
Look around….it seems like everyone is complaining about their physical condition:
- “my back hurts”
- “my knee hurts”
- “I just don’t have the flexibility I used to have”
So what can we do to improve our lives?
We work long hours, we’re tied to our computers, we eat poor diets and we wish we felt better.
Tim Hull - The Strength Doctor
I don’t think there is any ONE answer, but I do know that one of the answers comes from the Strength Doctor, Tim Hull.
Tim is a Licensed Manual Therapist (LMT) and Physical Therapy Assistant (PTA) who has worked in the health and fitness industry for over 15 years. With his unique perspective Tim has created a program called Functional Correction to address many of the problems that you and I face everyday…stuff like:
- muscle imbalances and how to correct them
- limited flexibility
- reduced mobility
Functional Correction does what it says.
Tim takes the time to:
- explain muscle imbalances and how they affect you
- show you how to increase your mobility and decrease stiffness
- educate you for increased athletic performance
- demonstrate the exercises that will make a difference in your life
Functional Correction
The Cost of Performance
What would you be willing to pay for a program that would help you enjoy the physical condition you deserve? $99.00? $119.00?
At those prices, Functional Correction would be a bargain – but Tim is offering his program at the unbelievably low price of $29.95!! Plus, he’s providing you with a free email consultation AND a video demonstration of the many exercises that will change your life.
Do yourself a favor – visit the website and read what others are saying about Functional Correction. Here’s my disclaimer:
I was not paid in any way to endorse this product or write this review. I was given a copy of Functional Correction to evaluate.
The “take-home” message is … Functional Correction works and can help you.
Bodybuilders, Golfers, GIRD and the Rotater
March 24, 2010
I want to thank several people who are passionate about using the Rotater and spreading the word to their friends as well.
James DiMuzio – Bodybuilder and Personal Trainer
James is an accomplished bodybuilder and highly sought after personal trainer in San Diego. James was kind enough to include the Rotater in the intro of his recent video where he describes his back and hamstring training. Note – as you’ll see in this video, James is not afraid to lift some very heavy weights – and this is while dieting for his most recent competition!
Tanya Colucci – Personal Trainer, Corrective Exercise Specialist, and Performance Enhancement Specialist
Tanya Colucci - M.S., NASM-CPT, CES, PES
Tanya is working with a new golf client who is training for the pro tour. Among the many areas Tanya is addressing is shoulder rotation mobility – and she’s chosen to use the Rotater to help her client’s internal and external shoulder rotation mobility!
After accessing her client’s physical condition (Overhead Squat Assessment, Single Leg Squat Assessment, Modified Squat Assessments, Thoracic spine mobility testing, shoulder ROM testing), Tanya has developed an extensive program to help her client reach his goal of becoming a professional golfer – here’s a link to her program & progress: GOLF: How to improve your swing! Part 1
Dr. Jeff Cubos – Strength and Conditioning Specialist, holds the International Chiropractic Sports Science Diploma and is currently the ONLY chiropractic sports specialist in the Greater Edmonton Area.
Dr. Jeff Cubos
Dr. Cubos is passionate about working with elite athletes and believes that knowledge is the key to sports injury management, athletic development and performance.
Dr. Cubos recently posted an article on his blog titled – Are You Sleeping on the “Sleeper” Stretch? In this article, Dr. Cubos questions the current practice of prescribing the Sleeper Stretch for athletes with Glenohumeral Internal Rotation Deficit (GIRD) of the shoulder.
Dr. Cubos includes several alternative glenohumeral positions that significantly stretch the posterior capsule of the shoulder. Two of these strategies include the use of the Rotater ( see pictures ).
