EXOGEN FOR FITNESS
Increased calorie burn, VO2, and heart rate using Exogen shorts and Exogen calf sleeves
WHAT WAS THE TEST?
5 male recreational runners (30-45 years) performed a testing session on a treadmill at the physiology laboratory of the National Sports Institute of Malaysia.
Resistance of 1.4% body weight was added to the participants via Exogen shorts and Exogen calf sleeves.
Increases in VO2 and calorie burn are evident.
EXOGEN FOR ENDURANCE
Distance running endurance testing with Exogen calf sleeves
WHAT WAS THE TEST?
20 Endurance trained runners performed 4 testing sessions on a treadmill in the laboratory with different body weight loads, using Exogen calf sleeves.
At just 2.5% additional body mass we see large increases in VO2 Max and heart rate.
EXOGEN FOR TECHNIQUE
Full Exogen suit for redistributing weight to the body
WHAT WAS THE TEST?
9 recreational trained males performed two reps of the power clean at 50% and 70% of their 1-rep max, both normally, and then with partial load redistributed (5%, 12% body mass) from the bar to the posterior body via Exogen wearable resistance. The total weight remained the same.
EXOGEN FOR POWER
Golf shot distance enhanced with Exogen wearable resistance
