The BUDDY SYSTEM™ is my new favorite training tool! It is a tandem resistance training product that works so well with my philosophy and PHAT Camps. Portable, cost-effective, flexible and very DYNAMIC (like me!) – you can do these awesome UNI-lateral motions that are like having a portable rowing machine and cable machine in one! Plus you can dial up the tension simply by how hard you are pulling- it is completely variable and up to the user so you can go as hard as you want. There are also many partner assisted BI-lateral motions that accentuate both he Positive (concentric or shortening of the muscle) and Negative (eccentric or lengthening) phases of each exercise which is awesome because there is constant tension in both phases allowing for no rest and fast muscle conditioning. There are many Rotational exercises as well that really work the core. Great for sport specific applications or if you just want to cut up the midsection. Plus you are working with a partner so you will train harder. All of these factors together make this system unparalleled!!! The BUDDY SYSTEM is a must for Personal Trainers, Group exercise classes, military, schools and MY CAMPERS! It is a whole new way to train!
