Hi guys,

I was thinking of potential scenarios when I can use these https://dealhaven.us/products/fitflex%25e2%2584%25a2-power-leg-knee-pad-1 for training.

The only thing I can come up with is that you can be way faster while still training in Z1. Does this make sense?

Can you guys think of a reasonable usage?

Dada:

That link takes one to a 404 page. Sorry, not sure what you are talking about.

No it doesn’t. Sorry for bothering. I would close that post then.

It’s the “TM” in the link that is causing problems… this may work: second link

I don’t think there IS a reasonable use for those…

It looks as if they are intended to provide extra force for stretching the knee. Which of course also means that you will have to use additional force for bending the knee.

Anyway, if we accept the premise that this would be sensible, the next problem appears:
The rotation centre of the device will have to be in the same position as the rotation centre of the knee. Otherwise, the device will have to slide along the leg when you bend the knee. From the photos, it is very clear that the rotation centres are not aligned.

So the device will have to slide, and it doesn’t really seem fit for sliding. So you will probably get a lot of chafing.
