Sprinting to burn fat.

We continue to consider various training devices for athletes. And in this article we will delight sprinters. It turns out that they train not only on the 100-meter course of a typical stadium in your city. Educational and sports systems are also being developed for them, and even entire complexes, one of which we will now study.

I think it’s no secret to anyone how effective and efficient sprinting is for burning fat. Therefore, this article will be of interest not only to professional athletes and their coaches, but also to ordinary people interested in issues of weight loss and figure correction. Well, well... We immediately begin to consider the above issue...

The training device significantly contributes to the development of strength and speed in runners in a dynamic mode, similar in external structure to sprint running. Using the device in easier conditions, you can solve technical training problems, in particular, practice active efforts in the next phase of running.

The device (Fig. 1) consists of two structural parts - a) mechanical and b) electronic. In this case, the mechanical part includes a metal frame 6, on which two drums 4 are fixed with a steel mesh stretched over them, a braking device 5, a support platform 3 and a belt track 7. The electronic part consists of an electronic counting device 1, which makes it possible to record the time of the support phase and time of carrying the leg, transmitter 9 and telemetry system 2.

The athlete, standing with one foot on the stand, performs a movement similar to running with the other. The exercise is performed in shoes with spikes. When placed on the support, the foot comes into contact with the steel mesh and sets it in motion. At the same time, sound signals are given that determine the rhythmic program of the running movement.

Thanks to the contact insoles 8, inserted into the athlete’s shoes (these can be running shoes, sneakers or sneakers), an electronic chronometer with a digital display records the time of the entire movement and its parts (working and carrying legs). The load is dosed by a braking device, graduated in kilograms. Recording the time of movement can be carried out in an alternative way, for example, using photocells with registration on the same digital device.

By visiting our online store, you can find the device described above, school sports equipment, as well as a whole range of various treadmills, bicycle ergometers and other cardio equipment, and the prices will certainly pleasantly surprise you. There is still a lot of interesting and educational things ahead, stay tuned!
