Physport 56" Resistance Parachute for Improved Running Speed and Power Training

Taylor: This thing is a beast lol. I didn’t expect it to work as well as it did. Living in the Midwest with all these high winds at times...I almost thought I was in airborne school. All jokes aside, it’s a great product to train with. You won’t be disappointed

Brave Sir Robin: This works really well. I got it for my son who's 8 and has a ridiculous amount of energy, he loves running with this. By only complaint would be the waist band is way too big, he has to tie it and the velcro barely goes around my waist, I can't imagine the vast majority of people using this product have a huge waist. Seems odd but I couldn't deduct a star for that since the price is so good and so is the product sans the one flaw.

akfin15: I purchased this for my nephew who wanted to try and gain some speed after losing to me in a foot race in front of our teenage neighbor girls. I am more than twice age so needless to say, Embarrassing!! He is 6'0" and this is perfect for him and offers just enough resistance to help without hindering. It folds up for storage and offers easy breakaway for those times when the wind wants to take you to Oz and you want to stay home. It also offers me entertainment when being used, because honestly how often does one get to see their nephew running from a parachute!

Coach Woods: I have two kids who play different sports and both could be faster so we are developing their fast twitch muscles and speed with resistance to build strength along with speed. One is in track more longer distance but needs the speed for last leg racing. The other is a baseball player who want to steal more bases. The training can be grueling so the rsistance parachute makes it easier to want to work because kids think it's fun to run with resistance. They all love to run afterward without it because they feel like they are flying (running faster). Thanks for an affordable training product that can benefit both kids.

Z: After having gone through a few sessions of sprints with the chute I can say that it is a good deal for the price, however the chute may only be useful for those in intense or fast paced sprint training exercises.

I purchased this YIMAN Drag Resistance chute to help with my wind sprints in my older age. I have been an athletic individual most of my life, having lots of experience with sprints and resistance training. But I've been wanting to work on my cardio, quickness and agility. And so I tried out a resistance chute for the first time.

The chute itself was larger than I had anticipated, which is a good thing for added wind catching ability. But without being at full sprint, the resistance seemed negligible to me. That being said, I have not yet tried running with the chute on a windy day which would increase resistance considerably, however its not feasible to wait for windy days to go out for a run. I have previously used running resistance bands and weighted sleds, and these provide more resistance albeit at more cost and space considerations.

Someone could run long distance with this chute if they wanted slight resistance over a long...
