_Individual Training
_The Individual Mode is similar to the Strength Training Mode except that only one pad is active. With individual training the pressures and vectors applicable to any scrum position can be accurately simulated. The Automatic Pressure Release function makes the International an ideal and safe tool for individual training. Athletes can use either side for strength training and endurance, and they can use the pressure gauges to record peak pressures exerted to monitor their improvements. Unlike almost all weight training this type of work will utilize all the correct muscle groups for any scrum position.
Training this way may be individually directed, or set to a specific training program.
Training suggestions include:
to increase power, determine individual baseline pressure levels, and use as in Strength Training Mode
to increase endurance, set pressure low and execute several (15-20) scrums one after the other; maintain good position and posture
set on low pressure to use for gradual and game-related rehab/physiotherapy. Chart progress.
