Power! Speed! Quickness! If you are looking to enhance your lower body workout program, consider using a dual resistance trainer. This device will add new dimensions to your training regimen, and help to speed up gains. There are a number of ways in which a dual resistance trainer can be used. Technically, they are designed for use with a partner. The partner provides resistance as you perform various running drills. However, they can also be secured to tires, wooden logs, and even stationary objects to achieve a similar effect. Anything that creates resistance/drag will work. For this exercise, a tire will be used to create drag. Instructions for this exercise are listed below:
First, secure the waist belt. Connect the opposite end to a tire. Get into a starting position, then run for several yards (approx. 30 to 40 yards is typical). Be sure to use maximum leg power. Try to incorporate the use of hand motions as you run. Doing so will enable you to perform the drill faster and with more power.
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
