Quickness! Power! Speed! If you are looking to enhance your leg workout program, the dual resistance trainer may be the perfect solution. This device will add new dimensions to your training program. There are a number of ways in which a dual resistance trainer can be used. Technically, they are designed for use with a partner. However, they can also be secured to tires, wooden logs, and even stationary objects.

Instructions for this exercise are listed below:

Start by securing the resistance harness around your waist. Ensure that the bungee lead/cord is facing forward [in front of your body]. Next, create approximately 15 feet of space between each person. Once in position, begin running backward for several yards. As the bungee cord expands, the resistance will increase considerably. The job of the partner is to provide resistance as you perform the drill.

      

    

Step 1

Secure harness around waist. Run backward. Partner should apply resistance as needed.
