Eccentric Flywheel Training – Background, Benefits, Technique & Equipment
What’s behind eccentric flywheel training?
In conventional strength training, the concentric phase (lifting) gets most attention. The eccentric phase (lowering) is often underestimated, though it delivers powerful stimuli for muscle development, performance and injury prevention. Flywheel systems make both phases equally usable: the wheel stores energy concentrically and demands it back eccentrically. Resistance scales automatically with your effort.
Why use eccentric training?
Eccentric work can accelerate strength gains and improve tendon/connective tissue resilience. In performance contexts it enhances development; in rehab, graded eccentric loading can support recovery (only under professional clearance).
How does it work?
A wheel is spun via rope/strap during concentric action. As it rewinds, the stored energy must be braked eccentrically. This loads muscles in both phases without changing weights manually.
Who is it for?
From beginners to elite athletes as well as physiotherapy, rehab, clubs, police, fire services and the military. The same device can be used lightly or intensely depending on technique and dosage.
Safe application
Technique before intensity: start with low inertia, practice clean movements, ideally begin with qualified guidance. Manufacturer tutorials support safe execution.
Device variants & examples
-
Stationary systems (RSP series) – robust, versatile, with accessories:
- RSP Wall Go – upper body
- RSP Squat – lower body & hips
- RSP Row – full-body/core
- RSP Conic – precise movements
- RSP Conic Pro – agility & quick direction changes
- RSP Isquio – sprints, hamstring emphasis
- Mobile solution: YoRoller PRO23 – light, compact, flexible mounting (door, stand, beam).
YoRoller — mobile flywheel
Despite its light weight, YoRoller offers remarkable exercise variety. Perfect for hotel rooms, outdoor sessions or compact home gyms — eccentric training anywhere, anytime.
Conclusion: Flywheel devices use concentric and eccentric phases equally for efficient, joint-friendly training.
Isometric Training — Strength Without Visible Motion
Definition & Benefits
Isometric means contracting muscles without visible joint motion. This develops strength, stability and control — even in short sessions and tight spaces.
Applications
Suitable for beginners, cleared rehab use and as an addition to athletic training — e.g., grip strength, core, shoulder & hip stability.
Activ5 — compact, app-guided isometrics
The Activ5 measures applied force and provides real-time feedback. Exercises are guided, loads shown and progress tracked — ideal for structured short workouts at home, at the office or while traveling.
Conclusion: Isometrics are versatile, joint-friendly and measurable — Activ5 makes them especially accessible.
Balance & Coordination Training — Stability & Quality of Movement
Why balance?
Unstable surfaces force constant adjustments. This trains neuromuscular control, improves reactions and movement quality — valuable for sports and fall prevention alike.
Bobo Balance — interactive & motivating
Bobo Balance links exercises with an app. Tasks appear as games, programs adapt, progress is logged — making balance training varied and measurable.
Models
- Bobo Wobbly – compact entry for home
- Bobo Home 2.0 – app-guided, tracks progress
- Bobo Pro 2.0 – extended measurement & reporting for clinics, clubs & performance
Conclusion: Balance training builds stability and improves brain–body coordination — Bobo Balance makes it engaging.
Ergonomic Running — Relaxed & Efficient Form
Why arm posture matters
Tense hands or lifted shoulders waste energy and impair posture. Relaxed arm carriage supports rhythm and upright running — that’s the idea of Laufmaus.
What is Laufmaus?
The Laufmaus is an ergonomically shaped handheld grip. It naturally positions hands, forearms and shoulders more relaxed — instantly improving posture and stride economy.
Conclusion: Laufmaus supports relaxed arms and upright form, enhancing a smooth, efficient running style.
Core Body Temperature Monitoring — Smarter Training & Safety
Why it matters
Internal temperature rises under load. Overheating can cause fatigue and risk; cold can impair movement and increase injury potential. Continuous monitoring helps optimize training and adapt to conditions.
CORE by greenteg
- CORE Sensor — continuous measurement, integrates with selected wearables/apps
- Visualizes temperature curves and load profiles
- Note: compatibility, scope and requirements — see product page
Conclusion: Knowing heat/cold responses improves planning, cooling strategies and safety — for sports and demanding work settings.
Dynamometer & Inclinometer — Objective Metrics for Strength & ROM
Why measure?
Reliable data shows training effects, deficits and rehab progress. Strength and range-of-motion metrics provide a sound base for planning and decision-making.
Activforce 2
Activforce 2 combines muscle force measurement (dynamometer) with joint angle/ROM measurement (inclinometer), displayed & stored in the app — enabling standardized tests, progress comparison and return-to-sport decisions.
Conclusion: Activforce 2 makes progress objectively visible — precise, trackable and versatile.
Conclusion & Selection
Fitness equipment at MindTecStore unites modern methods with everyday usability: flywheel systems, isometric tools, balance solutions, Laufmaus, CORE sensor and Activforce 2. Suitable for athletes, healthcare providers, clubs, rehab centers and structured home training.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Flywheel Training
What is the difference between concentric and eccentric training?
Concentric training shortens the muscle (e.g., lifting). Eccentric training brakes the movement (e.g., lowering). Flywheel devices make both phases equally usable.
Is flywheel training suitable for beginners?
Yes — the resistance adapts automatically. Beginners and advanced users can train on the same device.
What advantages does eccentric training offer?
Faster strength gains, tendon/connective tissue support, performance improvement and — with clearance — rehab use.
Can one device train all muscle groups?
Yes — depending on the model you can train upper body, lower body and core. Stationary RSP systems cover many options; YoRoller is very flexible.
Isometric Training (Activ5)
What makes isometric training different?
Muscles contract without visible joint motion — generating force without movement.
Who is it suitable for?
Beginners, cleared rehab applications and athletes focusing on stability and posture.
What are the advantages of Activ5?
It measures applied force, provides real-time feedback and makes short everyday workouts structured and motivating.
Balance Training (Bobo Balance)
Why is balance training important?
It improves stability, reactions and movement quality — vital for sport and daily safety.
Who can benefit?
Almost everyone: kids to seniors, leisure to pro athletes, rehab patients and teams.
What’s the difference between Wobbly, Home and Pro?
Wobbly: compact for home. Home: app-guided programs. Pro: extended measurements for clinics and teams.
Ergonomic Running (Laufmaus)
How does Laufmaus improve running?
It supports relaxed arms, upright posture and smoother running form.
Who benefits?
Beginners to ambitious runners — especially those prone to neck/shoulder tension.
Everyday use?
Yes, even while walking — improves posture and arm carriage.
Core Body Temperature (CORE by greenteg)
Why monitor?
Core temperature affects performance and safety. Overheating or cooling can impair performance and raise risks.
Who is CORE for?
Endurance, team sports, demanding professions and acclimatization/altitude training.
How does it work?
Worn on the body, measuring continuously. Data can be displayed in real time via apps/wearables.

What does it measure?
Muscle strength (dynamometer) and joint angles/ROM (inclinometer), visualized and stored in the app.
Who is it for?
Physiotherapists, coaches and athletes needing objective data for training or rehab.
Why use the app?
For standardized testing, result storage and clear progress visualization.
