The Vertimax consisted of a platfrom with a network of bungee cords running beneath it that come through the surface of the platfrom. From here, the cords are attached at the hips of athletes, giving them resistance throughout all forms of athletic movement.
The Vertimax has evolved into a multi sport training unit, with applications that exceed the original intent. The unit now has connections that enable the bungie cords to attache the the hips legs and arms, along with handle units for rows and strength training.
What do I like about the Vertimax? You can train in one spot---atop the 6X3 platfrom, and that is all the room required. Several drils and exercises can now be performed the include training to improve:
- Speed and Acceleration
- Explosiveness
- Strength and Power
- Conditioning and endurance
Add the use of a medicine balls and other sports balls and you can make training on the Vertimax sports specific.
