I originally picked up a pair of Gravity Boots to help relax my hip joints. I was in the middle of training for a fight, and my left hip always felt like it was stuck up in it's socket. A friend of mine has been using them to stretch out his back for years. He now hangs for 10 min twice a day and has no back issues. So I thought it would work for my hips. It was just what I needed. I started out with just a minute or so each time I went up. I eventually worked my way up to a solid 10 minutes every morning. It become more of a meditation upside down, and did wonders for my hips. At the same time, I started doing core exercises with them. Basically a hanging crunch, or pike. You can really feel it targeting the core muscles and had to work up my numbers for those as well. I recently pulled them out again and started up with both hanging and training.
