Smartmoovz® Foundation/Bell Curve

The Medical Basis of the Smartmoovz® Products

One of the most important goals at Smartmoovz® is good health through fun and education. Smartmoovz® has built its foundation on the basics of medicine, fitness, fun and family values.

All of the Smartmoovz® programs have been designed and endorsed by qualified medical and fitness professionals. They can be tailored to fit any fitness level, and are completely scalable to promote individual motivation at just about any level of ability.

For example, the 30-minute activity programs (VHS/DVD series, television programming, fitness programs and special events ) are based on a bell curve that is divided into six phases - the proper technique that begins with a warm-up phase, increases in intensity through two phases, decreases in intensity to mirror the first half of the program, and then finishes with a cool down phase to prevent injury. All of the activities are low-impact activities, meaning that one foot is kept on the floor at all times.

The bell curve is the basis for all Smartmoovz® programs in order to prevent injury and maximize the effects of the activities performed. Participants warm up gradually with low-impact activities (one foot is on the floor at all times), perform gradually higher-intensity movements, and then eventually come back to a lower intensity cool-down leading into the end of the program.

Customizing Your Workout: (DVD or VHS)

It is true that not every individual can perform all fitness programs. The founders of Smartmoovz®, Katie Hart Smith, RN and Kris Burnett, strive to create activities that accommodate just about any fitness level, from beginning to more advanced abilities. One great benefit of the Smartmoovz® programs is that they are scalable, meaning that a participant can begin at his or her own pace by doing certain portions of the workout until he or she is able to work up to the full program. There is no additional equipment to be purchased or to break down, and no special training is needed to participate.

Individuals of just about any fitness level should be able to perform all of the activities in the full 30-minute program, but for those participants wanting to build up endurance slowly, several options are available.

Workout Options
Smartmoovz® programs can be customized to different fitness levels. Participants can start with level one (or any of the other four levels), and can build up to the full program (level five). The first level includes a 5-minute warm-up and a 5-minute cool-down only for a total of 10 minutes. Each level thereafter increases in length and intensity as outlined in a chart included with the Basic Moovz™ DVD. View the Workout Option chart.

Note: Participants viewing the DVD format can choose their own workout levels by using the menu options provided on the disc. Participants viewing the VHS format can also customize their workouts by advancing their tapes to specific phases.
