Flexibility can play an important role in movement, training, and everyday activity, but achieving a controlled stretch on your own isn’t always easy. Saddle Stretch™ is a patent concept designed to provide users with an adjustable way to explore multiple stretching positions while remaining supported.

At the center of the concept is a saddle-style seat paired with adjustable padded lifting arms. The system is designed to support the legs as the user gradually adjusts their stretching position, helping create a more controlled and customizable experience.

One of the distinctive aspects of Saddle Stretch is its versatility. The concept is designed to accommodate multiple leg positions, from seated stretches with the knees facing forward or upward to extended leg stretches using heel support. Adjustable components allow the system to accommodate different positions and individual comfort levels.

The design also emphasizes accessibility and convenience. The saddle can be lowered so the user can straddle it from behind without having to climb over the equipment. Once positioned, the seat can be elevated so the feet are suspended for stretching.

Saddle Stretch is envisioned as a compact system suitable for a variety of potential environments, including martial arts studios, fitness facilities, training centers, and potentially the home fitness market.

For manufacturers and companies serving the fitness, flexibility, martial arts, wellness, and training markets, Saddle Stretch represents an opportunity to explore a different approach to assisted stretching equipment.

Saddle Stretch is currently available for licensing opportunities through Axis International.
