Greetings, 

Has anyone contrasted vertimax with band assisted training? I know both have 
been studied vs. other independent variables. Is there enough data to make 
"assumptions" about the advantages of one over the other? My interest lies in 
the 
vertimax philosophy that a non inertial relatively non variable resistance is 
more productive than an increasing resistance. Obviously the athlete provides 
the inertial resistance -- but what about the varying dimension?
