Power! Speed! Quickness! 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. Anything that creates resistance/drag will work. For this exercise, a tire will be used to provide resistance. Instructions are as follows:
Secure the belt so that the lead is in front of your waist. Connect the other end to the tire. Get into a starting position, then run backward for several yards (30 to 40 yards is typical). Be sure to run using maximum leg power. Try to incorporate the use of hand [running] motions. Doing so will enable you to perform the drill faster.
Depending on the amount of weight used, it might be appropriate to walk instead of run. To add difficulty to this exercise, simply increase the load/drag, increase running speed, or increase running distance.
Step 1
Secure waist belt so that lead is in front of body. Connect other end to weighted device. Run backward for several yards.
