Flywheel Manual
Since the rise in popularity of flywheel's, it's been a piece of equipment many, me included, always wanted.  
That was until I saw the price tag! Dropping 3-5k on a flywheel is quite the investment for a single piece of equipment especially for a sports performance facility, with many athletes training during sessions. Overall, Spending 3-5k on a single piece of equipment is just not conducive in many team/group settings.

So, we've spent hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars working on developing different flywheel's that coaches on a budget can afford. With this, we've put together a DIY manual that gives you 3-different Flywheel variations that you can easily build for around $150-250 and about 3-6 hours of construction time.

This DIY manual has been very popular amongst coaches and we've received a ton of positive feedback on the ease and simplicity of our manual. So don't delay, pick-up your own DIY manual for only $9.99!
Flywheel Manual

This week was the maiden voyage for our homemade flywheel, and it did not disappoint. When I first saw flywheel training I was skeptical, but after trying it myself, I can say it is a truly novel sensation that I think has tremendous value in teaching athletes to absorb eccentric forces at an incredibly high rate. If you don’t know how to absorb force quickly and create tension throughout your entire body to transfer force into the ground, the flywheel will teach you quickly, or you’ll be on your ass. This thing is no joke. We know that elite athletes are able to absorb force faster than less- accomplished athletes, and that high-velocity eccentric training leads to unique morphological and architectural adaptations to the musculotendinous unit and improved utilization of the stretch shortening cycle (SSC). These adaptations include the addition of more sarcomeres in series and a preferential increase in the size of type II fibers. The additions of more sarcomeres in series could theoretically decrease pennation angle and increase contractile velocity. The flywheel allows us to create eccentric overload, maximize concentric intent, safely load variations of classic lifts we wouldn’t otherwise be able to load like offset reaching plate squats, and load complex, triplanar exercises that are inappropriate or awkward with conventional resistance training. Big props to @bbaperformance for the manual and to @k_enslen44 for building it! Really excited to see what we can come up with to take our athlete’s performance to new levels. #jmsb #strength #eccentrics #VBT #triphasic #splitsquats #reverselunges #flywheel #training #workout #workoutmotivation #strong #hypertrophy #speed #speedkills #gainz #fordakids #squat #RDL #power #performance #acceleration #brutal #performancecoach #muscle #velocity #force #tension #nfl #combineprep
