The Vasa Trainer Leg Power Platform
Regular leg strength training with the Vasa Trainer Leg Power Platform builds explosive jumping power, improves vertical leap and develops lean lower body muscles with 2 primary “push” movements – the squat and the plyometric squat jump. Plyometric leg & jump training on the Vasa Trainer is effective, safe and fun. It engages the quadriceps, hamstrings, glutes, calf muscles, and core stabilizers, which tones and strengthens the legs while providing excellent anaerobic or cardio workouts.
Other exercise variations include single leg squats, lunges, calf raises, cardio pull, and butt blasters. It has a wide range of resistance options. These include pushing your body weight up the inclined monorail at one of 15 slope settings, adding 4 sizes of rubber tubing cords, and free weight plates added onto an optional bracket if desired. Athletes can also wear a weighted vest for an additional challenge.
Physical Therapists and conditioning coaches will find it great for closed chain or open chain exercises. Progressions are measurable and safe. It facilitates both concentric and eccentric loading of the muscles – allowing easy & safe acceleration / deceleration.
The Vasa Trainer is incredibly versatile and functional, offering great value and commercial grade quality at an affordable price. Even if only used as a jump trainer exercise machine to improve vertical leaping ability, the Vasa Trainer is a bargain compared to other machines.
Proper use of the Vasa Trainer will make you more productive while transforming you into a stronger, more efficient athlete. It will keep you fit while training at home or at your club for 1, 2 or 3 workouts per week… You’ll get a lot done in less time, especially if you do 6 or 8 of the other total body exercises possible on the Vasa Trainer!
