The Lifeline Lateral Resistor helps develop first step quickness, hip flexibility, lateral speed and explosive power. The design of this product allows for focused training of underused stabilizer muscles for injury rehabilitation or physical therapy applications. It increases the intensity of speed and quickness drills (shuffles, sprints, hops, backpedals) to improve the acceleration and deceleration that contributes to peak athletic performance and creates optimum body control that prevents injuries. Build complete lower body strength for explosive movements by adding up to 120lbs of peak weighted resistance by adding or removing up to three (3) 9” cables using Lifeline's patented Progressive Resistance System. Interchange the cables to customize the resistance and progress in weighted resistance as you get stronger. Increase lower body dynamic strength as a result of adding intensity and consistent positive and negative resistance to jumping, squatting and all manner of lower body drills and exercises. Different exercises target and strengthen thighs, glutes, hamstrings, and calves with lunges, extensions, and curls. Increase speed and stride length for explosive moves; shuffle in all directions for freedom of movement, balance improvement, and robust leg drive.
