Does it works for sports that not involve heavy lifting, but endurance like triathlon?

Didn't notice much effect on my lifting from BCAA, however creatine loading really helped my bike riding endurance and weight lifting.

I don't do any heavy lifting at all, mostly 200-300 rep small weights. It has worked very well in helping me tone. I'm not sure how good it would be for only aerobic since it is meant to help build and shape muscle...

Yeah but it'd be kind if awkward I think. But yeah the resistance works either way. I don't recommend the machine for really hard core workouts. It will only hold up for light use.

No, it works better and faster if you work out. I know people who have just used it for sweating out weight and it has worked but at a very slow pace. Mostly water weight.

I have found that there is not much elasticity to it. Now I primarily use it for running, not lifting, so I can't comment to how it would be for lifting. But I haven't found much give.

Yes it works. Each person has his/her own shoulder strap then that is threaded into the strap with (7) bars for adjustment to what you are lifting. So even though it's a "team" effort to lift; each person had their own strapping harness. I hope this helps you.

To be honest not very good. Its great for chest and triceps. I bought the tricep rope. It works great.

I have used it for softball and golf and feel its provides stability when playing these sports.Since I have not used it for squats not sure

Yes. It is much more versatile. This also makes it much easier to increase or decrease the difficulty of any particular exercise. Great product!!!

No, not at all....it's low impact and high intensity cardio. I love it! I look much leaner and toned. The weighted gloves helps tone your arms and burn fat.

I have lifted only a couple of times with it. It worked fairly well. I run mostly. After a three mile run if didn't shift much if you're worried about it sliding around. Hope this helps.

I wouldn't take a preworkout prior to endurance sports. It's more for short term powerlifting or cardio.

For speed bag I would say yes but certainly not for heavy bag workouts. It doesnt' prevent your wrist from moving back and forward. It is just a stabilizer not compareable to boxing wraps which are really keeping your wrist in the alignment with your forearm so you don't sprain it. I do calisthenic workout and a lot of plyometric push ups and the are a really goord support for these kind of workouts...hope that helped

yes it would. And it does have different speeds so you can adjust it as your muscles get use to one speed.

Changing resistance is simple, just twist. The easy settings are very light. Post surgery I started out light but found I quickly went to medium to higher and if anything, there's not a really heavy setting. It's great for endurance and even speed but heaviest resistances may be a bit lighter than you might have hoped. You can work up a sweat but this won't replace weight machines to build muscle. This machine will build endurance and improve flexibility in the knees and hips if done properly.

I have not used it for weight workout! Just cardio! With machines and running outside!

No, but it was fast moving for me. I guess it would depend on how good of shape you are in. Its more cadio and toning.

Yes it does. This is a great watch and especial great for tri-athletes because the transition from swimming, biking and running is simple!
