Overspeed Training
By pulling the athletes in the direction they are moving, the load on the body is significantly lowered. This enables the muscles to develop quick movement, which leads to increasing range of motion and enhancing the athletes’ overall quickness.
Core Strength
Bear Crawl (left) and Crab Crawl (right)
Late in a game or race when fatigue settles in, Core Body Strength is vital to maintain proper athletic form. By using the 1Vest™ and Resistance Cords, instability is added which makes the body engaging core muscles to resist the pull and thereby resulting in strengthening the before mentioned muscles. Over time the athlete can move further away from the cord connection point to add more counter force and further enhance his/her Core Strength. He/She can connect the Bungee-Cord to a teammate, to a doorway for individual use, or to a weight machine attachment at the local fitness club (Gym).
Upper Body Plyometrics
Blast Offs
A standard push-up becomes much more challenging when the 1Vest™ unloads body weight. The extended range of motion and soft landing increases strength and flexibility while diminishing the risk of injury. Plus, the un-weighting adds more fun to the drill!
Power Pulls
As athletes run against resistance supplied by the Power Cord, they tend to develop explosive power. Balance and body control are developed by sustaining the same speed forwards and backwards.
Forward Spider
The 'Sprinters Lean' for quick acceleration is easily perused by using the Spider Web. This sports motion is vital to overall quickness such as Baseball Players blasting off to first base and Football Players bursting off the line.
