Cross-country training Ercolina Double Force

The Ercolina Doppia Forza machine is designed for seasoned cross-country skiers, it offers incredible resistance in simulated thrust for exceptional specific work. This machine is designed to perform strength or speed endurance sessions. The purpose of strength endurance work with the Double Force is to improve the resistance of the cross-country runner over long efforts with specific gestures repeated during an intense lactic effort. The main feature of the Double Force is that it allows you to work on the acceleration capacity, to do this, we had to review the inertia in movement using a magnetic brake. The intensity adjustment is also useful either to vary the sessions, or to readapt the body to the gesture of the push without the shocks and vibrations due to the stick planting on snow or on asphalt in wheel skiing. The double force provides a distribution of effort during the push that perfectly simulates the gestures of cross-country skiing and especially the efforts of sprints at the end of the race. In addition, the adjustable width allows the skier to be well-conditioned with his or her own pole planting markers. It is an accessory for the most ambitious of you who are into double push!

Optimized acceleration capacity:

The double force allows you to increase your acceleration capacity during a very intense lactic effort. Its magnetic brake system increases the inertia of movement and therefore the force to be developed for an effective push. Developed with and for the most demanding athletes, it allows you to develop both strength and endurance.

Perfect imitation of the double push on snow:

Ercolina Upper Body Power exactly simulates the double push in cross-country skiing. It is the ideal training tool for both classic and skating techniques. Thanks to the rigid connection between the flywheel and the drawstring, Ercolina offers absolute respect for technical movements, aiming to give the user the sensations of skiing on snow.

Full and accurate movement:

Thanks to the length of the cables and the rewind system, Ercolina Upper Power allows for both short and long pushes, allowing for complete workouts with variations in rhythm and intensity.

Improves coordination:

Ercolina offers the user immediate feedback necessary to correct movement asymmetry. Thanks to the two independent resistance units it allows, in addition to the simulation of the simultaneous push, even the execution of the movements for the alternative step of the classic technique.

Basic stability:

Training with Ercolina Upper Body Power is effective in preventing or treating back pain. Ercolina Upper Body Power allows you to train all the muscles of the trunk by properly stabilizing your torso and spine.

Width Adjustment:

You can easily adjust the width of the handles to the width of your shoulders, so you can perform push-ups with the right gesture.

Variable Resistance:

Ercolina Upper Body Power is a machine with a magnetic brake that allows the user to play with a wide variety of typical cross-country conditions. The different resistance levels allow you to work at high or low intensity, strength endurance or maximum strength. The minimum force setting also allows the use of Ercolina without risk of overload, even younger, while the maximum setting is enough to overwhelm an Olympic level athlete.

Also suitable for climbing:

Are you a rock climber? Then the Doppia Forza is perfect for you too. Although designed to perform the repetitive movements of cross-country skiing, it can also be used to develop maximum strength or explosiveness for blockers, to do intervals for speed enthusiasts and to work on endurance for cliff climbers. There are plenty of ways to improve your climbing fitness.
