I have the exxentric pulley and kbox, i agree the pro about the kratos is that the platform is anchored down and its a 2-in-1. That said, theres things that can be done on the kpulley/kabuki rack mount that you cant do on the 2-in-1 kratos. like chest movements with back support on one of the uprights for example. and also, using ratchet straps within a power rack, you can anchor down the kbox to do flywheel resistance push ups or dips/pull ups etc

[@TheKurtlocker]

I feel challenged to accommodate those lifts now. I hope I don’t come across like I’m saying the K Box is a bad item. I’ve used those as well for years and think they’re solid.

[@beltfedstrength9157]

Pretty cool! I could see this as a nice way to rehab some stuff too.

[@TheKurtlocker]

Flywheel training is heavily used in physical therapy clinics.

[@scooobyj8714]

That’s an awesome system.

[@TheKurtlocker]

It is. I originally was going to get the one with no platform so it took up essentially zero space but at the last second opted for the platform version.

[@TheFarrOutpost]

Nice review! I never thought of doing hamstring curls with one of these… I definitely feel fly wheel has a place for space constrained athletes, not sure for people with fully built out spaces though. 💪🏼

[@TheKurtlocker]

The application goes beyond that however it could also be viewed as a space limitation solution. Viewing it in the light just limits application IMO. Thanks for watching man!

[@carps_gym]

I got to try one or those a while back. It was an interesting feeling having a concentric and eccentric pull

[@TheKurtlocker]

It’s so awesome. I love that it essentially auto regulates as the athlete gets tired as well.

[@redmetalpanda9051]

​@@TheKurtlockerkind of an auto drop set?

[@TheKurtlocker]

It can be. Just pull with less force. What I meant was as you fatigue, you naturally pull with lighter amounts of force thereby reducing the eccentric force you resist

[@Leonidas-eu9bb]

A platform flywheel system has it's benefits like it's cheaper (except the kbox), portable. And if the platform could be easily mounted on a wall or beam it solve the problem of horizontal resistance. The relative small size of a platform would be no problem if there is no need to stand on it with both feet.

[@TheKurtlocker]

I agree with you on this, but it is not the reality today.

[@chrisdonnell2575]

These things are cool great review. One of these days they'll have ones that are connected to app or touch screen that will be far less expensive.

[@TheKurtlocker]

It would be amazing to see prices come down on these. The quest station I have is actually connected through an app using a RepOne sensor

[@andersonhirt]

I'm curious about flywheels in general... Can you load them precisely? My understanding is that they capture and and reapply whatever force you put in, meaning you can't dial in the resistance like a traditional pulley. Seems like a good HIT piece but difficult to accurately track and progress if that's the case. Where does a flywheel land in the balance between conditioning, strength, and hypertrophy?

[@TheKurtlocker]

Progression on flywheels is a little different. Precise loading like a barbell or dumbbell is not exactly how it works. You select load and the harder you pull, the harder it pulls you during the eccentric phase. The nice part, is that it auto regulates to your strength. You move up in inertia disk when you are able to stop a hard concentric pull without getting good rom on the eccentric.

[@xxJ0xx]

What’s better this or the excentric wheel?

[@TheKurtlocker]

I prefer Kratos but exxentrix has not gotten the full look like this has

[@xxJ0xx]

@@TheKurtlocker how much is kratos.

[@TheKurtlocker]

@xxJ0xx follow the link in the description

[@Leonidas-eu9bb]

Inertial resistance >> gravitational resistance! That means flywheel training is better than lifting weights!

[@TheKurtlocker]

I like a combination of the two personally. Thanks for watching!
