Speed can mean a variety of things for different sports, different activities, and at different ages.
But the fundamentals of building speed with KAATSU equipment are based on the following protocols:
*Warm-up using the Progressive KAATSU Cycle mode on your arms, starting in the Low Pressure setting and gradually increasing to higher pressure settings.
*Continue your warm-up using the Progressive KAATSU Cycle mode on your legs, starting in the Low Pressure setting and gradually increasing to higher pressure settings.
*At the higher pressures, replicate your desired movements or drills at your optimal speeds. First with the KAATSU AirBands on your arms, and then on your legs. These movements can include track starts for runners, agility drills for football players, running or skating backwards on defense in basketball or ice hockey, swinging a golf club, tennis racquet, baseball bat or cricket bat, spinning quickly in cycling, throwing a baseball or water polo ball, sprinting on a track, exploding upwards for a rebound or dunk, shooting a quick jump shot, moving laterally or backwards on a tennis court, reacting on a volleyball court, or diving off a swimming start block.
*With the KAATSU AirBands from your arms, replicate your movements or drills at speeds at which you wish to compete (or achieve) until you reach technical failure. These movements or drills can be done in the KAATSU Constant mode. That is, when your technique starts to falter or decrease from optimal, then stop and remove the KAATSU AirBands from your arms.
*With the KAATSU AirBands from your legs, replicate your movements or drills at speeds at which you wish to compete (or achieve) until you reach technical failure. These movements or drills can be done in the KAATSU Constant mode. That is, when your technique starts to falter or decrease from optimal, then stop and remove the KAATSU AirBands from your legs.
*Relax a bit, hydrate, and then refocus on your next set of movements or drills. You can rest a little here because your hormonal response will peak somewhere around 12 minutes after you remove the AirBands from your limbs.
*You wish to focus on your speed as your hormones are optimized.
*Without the KAATSU AirBands on your limbs, replicate the same movements or drills. The movements or drills should initially feel easier. You may feel lighter and faster. Even without your KAATSU AirBands on, you will experience the hormonal effects and increased vascular elasticity of KAATSU. This is an ideal time to focus on building speed as well as agility and balance when moving quickly.
