GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The Real Runner™ is a high-intensity interval trainer that simulates a runner's stride, providing a full range of motion, while simultaneously developing stride length, stride frequency, endurance, acceleration and power.

The Real Runner™ is the only performance trainer that uses isokinetic resistance in both the extension and flexion of the hip and knee joints while also promoting dorsiflexion of the ankle.

APPLICATIONS

Proven results with short intervals (20-60 repetitions≈20-60 seconds
Performance training Biomechanics
- Increase stride length by building muscle and power across the entire runner’s gait without impact.
- Increase stride frequency through conditioning the athlete to accomplish faster repetitions
- Acceleration
- Power
- Assured muscular hypertrophy - lower back, abdominals, hip flexors, gluteal muscles, hamstrings, quads, calves, shin and foot
- Dorsiflexion - strength and conditioning of the Tibialis Anterior Muscle
- Forward foot strike

FEATURES

The only performance equipment that provides resistance in both flexion and extension of the runner’s movement, concentric and eccentric contractions.
The only performance equipment that trains dorsiflexion by creating a necessity for the athlete to draw the toe toward the shin, in order to bring the peddle arm forward, under resistance, within the runner’s stride.
The only performance equipment that provides resistance through isokinetic pistons that respond in kind to the athlete’s degree of intensity of flexion and extension.
Provides 3 levels of isokinetic resistance - each level’s intensity is variable contingent upon the user’s output in stride force and frequency.
Used by professional, Olympic and collegiate sports of all disciplines (football, baseball, basketball, hockey, MMA fighters, track and field, etc.).
Purchased and trained on by individual elite athletes.
Purchased and trained on by actors to prepare for stunts, conditioning, strength and physique.

ADJUSTMENTS

Requires no adjustment for stature.
Pedals automatically adjust for taller users by extending further rearward.
