The G-WEG is rolled out in a suitable room. The senior citizens can be positioned seated on either side of the room. Depending on the group category, I accompany the trainees from their seat to the G-WEG.
Once the exercise is complete, you can continue with the next senior citizens.

For successful training, it makes sense to browse through the methodology cards in advance and bring your favorite exercises to the front so that you can get started straight away during training and avoid waiting times.

Rolling while standing is easy and easy on the back.

We recommend further training with us for successful implementation, as we also provide a lot of new knowledge on the subject of fall prevention.

The stone edges increase the stride length of the exerciser as they are crossed over during training. The standing leg phase is extended because the exerciser takes a step over the stone edge.

Any surface is suitable, with the exception of carpeting and meadows. Make sure that there are no sharp objects, stones etc. under the G-WEG.

The fields vary the track width when walking. There are 3 track widths available.

Yes, that's why it doesn't need to be glued down.

The G-WEG is approx. 4 mm thick.

Yes, during the development process, attention was paid to a surface that we are familiar with from everyday life. That's why the G-WEG was modeled on a meadow.

The G-WEG is suitable for all pedestrians who can walk alone, with a walking stick, with a rollator or with the help of a carer/caregiver/therapist.

The method cards are the training plan. They contain exercises to be carried out while walking along the G-WAY. This allows you to practise dual-task tasks and simulate everyday situations.

There are a total of 5 exercise categories: Basics, individual exercises with equipment, pair exercises without equipment, pair exercises with equipment, large group exercises.

The traffic light system from easy to difficult allows you to choose the method cards that are suitable for people with dementia.

By starting in the first two fields, we ensure the necessary focus and a secure footing.

Two rollator users can train comfortably next to each other. Always make sure that the users are walking in the rollator and looking forward towards the G-WAY.

I always offer my support to the person exercising by facilitating. This means that I walk next to the trainee and offer my hand or I support the trainee with both hands behind the trainee on the pelvis.

G-WEG training in the fresh air is of course recommended. Important: There must be no sharp objects under the G-WEG. It is also important to ensure a safe, level surface.

Squeezing the Redondo ball activates the muscles in the upper extremities, which leads to greater core stability and is very important for a safer gait. This is described very well on the method card "Transport with both hands".

Up to 16 people can train at the same time in a large group. For example, in an alleyway set-up so that two participants are always facing each other or sitting opposite each other.

No, as walking does not specifically work on the gait of senior citizens. The improvement in stride length and walking speed is achieved by specifying a reproducible walking distance.

In our study, an improvement in gait pattern was already achieved with 2 training sessions per week. We recommend G-WEG training twice a week for 60 minutes in a small or large group and daily 10-minute activation.

The G-WEG incurs one-off acquisition costs.

The materials used in the categories "Individual exercises with equipment" and "In pairs with equipment" are everyday materials (paper plates, PET bottles, umbrellas, etc.). There are exercises that involve wearing weight cuffs on the feet.

Yes, the G-WEG can be easily cleaned with a wet cloth and washing-up liquid. Due to different disinfectants, you should test a small area in an inconspicuous place. Allow the disinfectant to evaporate before rolling up the G-WEG.
