Eccentric Overload Aid

US$179

Use the STREXBOX Eccentric Overload Aid to achieve a manually increased overload on your eccentric squat movement.

Attention: the Eccentric Overload Aid is not recommended for home users, the Eccentric Overload Aid is recommended for professional users such as strength and conditioning coaches who have education and knowledge and can guide and supervise athletes.

  1. install the Eccentric Overload Aid (uninstall the pull belt from the STREXBOX, remove the cam buckle, add the eccentric overload aid instead, install the pull belt)
  2. You connect your squat harness or hip belt as usual and you wind up your pull belt as usual and get down with your butt into squat position as usual
  3. Grab the grips of the Eccentric Overload aid
  4. When you go up with your butt by stretching your legs and accelerating the flywheel, now you additionally pull with your hands on the grips of the Eccentric Overload aid.
    Attention: Pull slowly first with your arms, as this additional pull creates additional load on the eccentric phase when you go down with your butt again, and you may will have troubles to handle the load at the eccentric phase if you pull too hard at the handles first!
  5. When you have fully stretched your legs and the eccentric load kicks in, we recommend you hold on to the grips of the Eccentric Overload aid, but let your legs do most of the eccentric job to decelerate the flywheel when you go down with your butt. When you hold on to the grips of the Eccentric Overload aid you can help with your arms to decelerate the eccentric load in case it is too much eccentric load and your legs cannot handle it alone.
  6. Be careful, do not go over your limits to avoid injuries! Have a training partner who guides and supervises you to avoid injuries!

How to achieve eccentric overload:
(copied from our Tips and Tricks page, for more details visit the Tips and Tricks).

Option 1 without Eccentric Overload Aid: Athletes pulls with constant force for a long period of time when he stretches his legs in the concentric phase to accelerate the flywheel and avoid any concentric force peaks. When the athletes enters the eccentric phase when he goes down into squat position, the athlete decelerates the flywheel in a short period of time leading to high eccentric peak forces and eccentric overload. 

Option 2 with Eccentric Overload Aid: : Athlete pulls in the concentric phase with arms and legs with the help of our Eccentric Overload Aid (can be bought in the online shop as accessory) to accelerate the flywheel. When the athletes enters the eccentric phase when he goes down into squat position, the athlete decelerates the flywheel only with his legs or just with minimal support from his arms. Long and short period timing is here not that important, meaning with the Eccentric Overload Aid you have a longer eccentric phase duration and more control about the actual eccentric load you can achieve.
