VertiMax can develop muscles essential for speed in ways soccer players could never dream of with conventional weight training
If you want more team speed and first step quickness on the field, performing soccer drills with VertiMax can develop muscles essential for speed in ways soccer players could never dream of in a conventional weight room. With VertiMax, soccer players can leave the platform and connect individual resistance bands to the waist and feet so they can simultaneously load their legs when they're planted on the field driving and when they break contact with the field and accelerate through the air for a quicker next step. No other training system in the world can do this and VertiMax's versatility has the ability to conduct hundreds of other performance enhancing soccer exercises to improve kicking power and agility and take game performance to a whole new level.
VertiMax is the most versatile athletic training system available but you don't have to get fancy with it to turn average soccer players into great players. One simple soccer exercise: the Quarter Quick Jump 2 to 3 times a week will make a radical improvement in your team's speed and overall competitive abilities and with a single system you can train 30 soccer players in under an hour.
Below we're going to summarize seven unique power producing advantages only VertiMax has to offer your soccer training program:
1) VertiMax allows soccer players to perform hundreds of soccer drills that specifically target primary muscles groups that are critical for increasing speed relative to acceleration and deceleration abilities including kicking power. With VertiMax's ability to reconfigure the positions of its resistance training bands for on or off-platform training Soccer Demo Video, soccer players are able to perform hundreds of sports specific soccer drills to improve power, speed and acceleration performance for virtually any movement on the field of play.
2) VertiMax is the top soccer training system for speed because its the only system in the world that can load the leg drive and swing phase simultaneously for maximum linear and lateral speed gains watch video. Every soccer player wants more speed for successful breakaway plays and steals on the field of play. If you really want to fully develop speed potential – you have to effectively increase power in BOTH the leg drive and swing phase of the running motion when you accelerate. We're talking about loading the quad, glut and calf when one leg is planted on the ground driving and also at the same time loading the hip flexors, abductors and adductors of the opposite foot when it breaks contact with the ground and accelerates towards the next ground strike so it can begin driving again. This patented training technique is as effective as speed training gets for the serious soccer player. If you're still running around with an elastic band tied to your waist you're only training drive phase and that does nothing to develop power in the muscles that accelerate your foot when it leaves the ground. If you're running around with an elastic band tied to your ankles, you're only training swing phase and what's worse is those elastic bands are almost always slack when you start foot movement and thus they provide no useful resistance for power development at the start of the explosive movement where its most important. The V8 combines the best of both these conventional soccer exercises while correcting the problems associated with each to deliver the most effective soccer training system for speed in the world.
3) Only VertiMax increases both leg power and arm swing velocity to truly maximize the vertical leap. Great vertical jump ability is critical in the game of soccer for goalies and out jumping the opponent when heading the ball. If you improve the vertical leap you'll not only become more competitive jumping but the increased explosive leg power will also improve your speed on the soccer field. That is why the vertical leap is one of the most important performance parameters athletes are judged by to determine athletic potential. That's why training with VertiMax is key to every athlete because it's the only vertical jump training system in the world capable of loading both the legs and arm swing at the same time when vertical jump training. That's important because arm swing velocity at take-off accounts for 10 to 13% of your vertical jump performance and it can't be ignored if a soccer player is training to develop their full vertical jump potential for performance evaluation by coaches. Vertimax is the only soccer exercise system that accounts for the arm swing lift component which will make a significant difference in vertical jump performance and overall leg drive for great explosive performance from start to finish in soccer competition.
4) Vertimax allows soccer players to achieve higher training velocities to more effectively develop power at high speeds required for acceleration, jumping ability and kicking power. This is what we call speed strength and VertiMax is specifically designed to excel at developing speed strength in every critical soccer movement. The problem with conventional elastic training systems is they usually involve a short elastic bands connected between parts of our body or the ground or a wall. When you try to perform an explosive movement and stretch these short bands the resistance often goes from 0 to a whole lot in just 2 feet. That radical increase in resistance is basically slamming on the brakes when you're trying to achieve high training velocities. Vertimax solves that issue by utilizing really long elastic bands on retractable pulley systems so you're stretching a long band a little instead short band a lot. Once you set the resistance on Vertimax this allows the athlete to basically feel the same load from the beginning to end of any explosive soccer drill whether it be running, jumping or kicking. There's no hitting the brakes when you initiate an explosive movement on Vertimax and that means you're going to achieve higher training velocities with your legs and better speed strength development to improve speed and power and improve soccer performance.
5) VertiMax resistance bands never go slack when training so soccer players can develop power sooner in the acceleration, jumping or kicking movements. The ability to develop power quickly in these movements is critical for any player who wants to have great game performance on the soccer field and that is exactly what Vertimax will give them. Vertimax resistance bands fully retract into the system which means they never go slack and always provide a useful training resistance when athletes initiate any explosive repetition while performing soccer drills. Conventional elastic bands can't do that because they can't retract into anything and when the athlete coils to position themselves for the explosive movement, the bands go slack and don't provide any useful training resistance to develop power at the front end of an explosive movement where it's most important. VertiMax is superior for front end power development in the jumping and running movement. In the coiled position for vertical jump training Vertimax bands retract and can't go slack keeping the full load applied the squatted position. Resistance from conventional elastic training systems will radically drop off as the athlete dips into the squatted position because there's no means to remove slack as the two cord ends approach each other. When training the hip flexors (another critical muscle group for first step quickness), once again Vertimax resistance bands can't go slack and fully load the hip flexor before it even begins the explosive contraction. Conventional bands tied between the ankles won't apply one ounce of load to the hip flexor at the start of any explosive soccer drills because that band will be completely slack every time you begin a high knee drive. With no load at the start, you're tossing power gains that can improve your soccer power & speed performance right out the window. VertiMax's waist and individual foot bands can maintain constant drive and swing phase resistance on every relevant muscle in both legs moving in any direction. That conventional shuffle drill with ankle bands can't apply an ounce of force to either leg if your feet are less than shoulder width apart - and when it does it loads only the abductor - period. VertiMax is simply a smarter, more effective way to radically increase power at the start of an explosive movement and that's just one more reason Vertimax delivers superior gains regardless of the soccer exercise being performed.
6) Adjustable resistance settings from 2 to 200 pounds allows soccer players from 6 years old to Professional players to train on VertiMax. The Vertimax V8 gives you the ability to adjust the resistance setting on each of the 8 bands routed in the system by extracting or retracting the bands through their individual cam mechanism which automatically locks the cord in place after the resistance adjustment. This feature provides a wide range of resistance settings that allows the same V8 system to accommodate an international super star right down to a 6 year old youth athlete.
7) Vertimax implements two balance control mechanisms to help players maintain balance and work with more effort when performing explosive soccer training drills. If you want to maximize power output you have to train explosively with 100% effort and you can't do that if you're not balanced, especially if your vertical jump training with a load watch video. Anyone who has tried to jump with 100% effort when they were off balance knows your brain and physics won't allow it. If you use a conventional jump trainer that simply ties non-retractable bands to a fixed point its almost impossible to train with 100% effort because the system is not designed to maintain your balance. Resistance on these antiquated systems will radically increase as you jump. If you drift off center from the anchor points you have to deal with a lateral force pushing or pulling you and that's going to completely destabilize you because when we jump gravity doesn't radically increase or push us from the front or back. The Vertimax designed appreciates and maintains the stability of gravity by utilizing a design that provides a non-varying resistance and a patented tracking system that allows the elastic bands to move with the athlete when vertical jump training. If the athlete drifts forward or backward while jumping, the anchor point actually moves with the athlete to help keep the force of the bands pulling straight down just like gravity. The VertiMax design gives you more stability enabling more effort on every explosive rep when performing soccer drills for power and speed on or off the platform.
