The Vasa leg platform is an awesome training tool for swimmers, triathletes and anyone else who wants to have leg strength and explosive power! We use the platform with all of our athletes on a regular basis. The platform is great at simulating start and turn explosiveness and power! A great tool to add to the plyometric arsenal. Personally, I use the platform for squats multiple times a week. I like how it gives the body stability when doing one leg squats as well as complete range of motion even if the true one leg squat strength is not developed yet. I find that the platform teaches proper technique while protecting the back from injury. The platform is very easy to move on and off of the vasa. It is also very sturdy. Highly recommend this add-on to everyone that uses a Vasa Trainer.

In the previous ten years, we have had 10 Illinois H.S. state champion performances, 53 All-American swims and one high school national record. One constant in our training has been the Vasa leg power platform. Both our boys and girls teams use the leg platform as part of our dryland conditioning throughout the season.

I’ve had a bad sup surfing accident about a year ago. The fin of my board cut me right under the right calf. 34 stitches to close. 5 inside and 29 outside. Basically, it sidelined me for almost 10 months. Absolutely no leg activity for 4 months. Just hearing those words was enough to drive me nuts. I kept active by using your SUP Ergometer. Transferring the activity from SUP to canoe paddling. It did the job but I had to wait until the 4th month to start to walk without fear of tearing muscles on the inside of my calf. After a while, I was able to stand on my paddle board and actually paddle again. Being on the ocean, my leg still felt weak. Slowly I was able to work my leg back into shape. Although I was very hesitant about doing any squats or strenuous lifting.
Then one day I got an email from Vasa showing the Vasa Trainer (which helps keep me in shape for surf season.) It showed a [Leg Power Platform] and a short video of how you could do leg exercises. That was exactly what I needed! The squats and one-legged push-offs helped me get to 80% of my leg strength. Especially since it isolates a specific area. For me, it was being able to directly work the calf muscle. Although I have a little ways left to go, using the Vasa Trainer has definitely helped my rehabilitation. Now with the extra bands, it will definitely get me to where I need to be.
