Built for hockey players
The patented design of the Bronko Belt RTI offers a combination of features tailored specifically to the needs of hockey players. Special consideration has been given to the high-speed, high-intensity, full-contact nature of the game and as a result the belt is able to provide hockey players with the benefits of resistance training in a sport-specific manner without compromising the player's performance, comfort or safety.
Even weight distribution around your center of gravity:
- The belt positions the training weight around your center of gravity so your balance, range of motion and skating stride won't be negatively affected while you train. This allows you to improve skating power without compromising skating technique.
- The belt's placement on the hips leaves your hands free while training. Players can shoot, puck handle and pass normally meaning they can wear the belt during practice including during drills that simulate game situations.
- The curved, form-fitting weight packs of the belt hug your hips snugly on top of your pants to achieve as low a profile as possible so the belt fits inconspicuously under your jersey and doesn't get caught up on other players or the boards.
Easy to use and fully customizable for a comfortable fit:
- The belt can be adjusted to fit just about any player. The unique fastening system locks the weight packs in place on the waist belt and prevents them from sagging or otherwise moving while you play. The system allows you to easily adjust the positioning of the weight packs on your hips so they fit comfortably and don't restrict your range of motion.
- You can select the amount of training weight to suit your fitness level and training goals. The Adult size belt includes 8lbs training weight (4lbs in each weight pack) and the Youth size belt includes 4lbs training weight(2lbs in each weight pack).
- The belt goes on easily and comes off in seconds so players can wear the belt without disrupting practice.
Works with your pants to minimize the risk of injury:
- If you fall or collide with another player the belt is designed to transfer the force of the impact onto the protective padding in your pants to minimize the risk of injury.
- By positioning the training weight around your center of gravity, and not on your back or extremities, the belt helps you avoid unnecessary strain on your lower back and core muscles.
- While the belt has been designed to protect players in case of a fall or collision it is not recommended to use the belt during drills which focus substantially on body contact. Proper sizing is required to achieve proper protection. Injury may result if the belt is not used as directed. Consult your User Guide for complete instructions on wearing the belt.
What our customers say
"I love the belt for full team development because it doesn't get in the players' way. We used it and when the belt came off they definitely had a huge jump. I recommend adding the belt to improve the most important part of the game-- skating."
"Would I recommend the Bronko belt? Absolutely. Coaches/programs spend thousands of dollars on bungee systems, passing trainers, weighted pucks, as well as "the next great thing." All take up time/space on the ice when using them. The Bronko belt does not. Personally, with the Bronko belt, I've found I can have uptempo edge specific sessions in 50 minutes of ice time rather than our normal 90 minutes without the belts. I find we spend much less ice time for conditioning drills when using the belts."
"For the past three years our team has trained with the Bronko Belts I feel the Belts have had a very positive impact on their skating strength and development. The players continuously make comments like "Coach, can we wear the Belts today", "I feel so much lighter when I take it off" and "You forget you're wearing it until you take it off and notice the difference." I've implemented the Belts in all my skills and drills and would recommend it to any other coach!"
"The training has been going really well. My kid is wearing his belt every time he goes on the ice. It was funny the first time. It really sapped the energy out of him. Now he wears the darn thing for the entire practice! I'm extremely pleased with it...it's definitely a great training aid."
