Flywheel resistance training is one such factor. To understand how to optimally train using this resistance, you could lock yourself away and see what works best to promote strength, endurance, hypertrophy, and speed, or how best to rehab and injury - or you could simply enroll in Professor John Cronin’s Flywheel Resistance Training course.
Knowledge is power, and that's exactly what John Cronin set out to do with his online Flywheel Resistance Training course.
We’ve partnered with John Cronin to educate our community on the science behind Flywheel Training and using the power of Exerfly exercise to deliver unprecedented results.
With comprehensive evidence-based guidelines and loading parameters you should be using to achieve your fitness outcomes, you take a deep dive into the mechanics (force, power, velocity, etc.) of flywheel training, affording you expert insider knowledge on how you should be training.
The course provides you with the knowledge to walk into your flywheel workouts knowing how to achieve your fitness goals, and leave knowing you’re one step closer to your personal targets.
John Cronin is a Professor in Strength and Conditioning at AUT University, Head of Education at Exerfly and founder of JC Online.

For Athletes and Strength & Conditioning Coaches
If you’re about optimising performance and/or patient outcomes, then look no further.
Exerfly is your all-in-one training solution. It is perfect for home, traveling, or gym use. Exerfly has created a training tool that fits into real people’s lives, schedules, and homes.
Using science-backed technology, Exerfly can take your training to the next level, with customized programs, data analytics and best training practices to maximize your results
Maximize your workouts with our in-built sensor and Exerfly app. With an all-new app and in-built sensor tracking data points at 4,000 times per second, now you can monitor your workout data in an easier, more efficient way and receive feedback on every single rep.
Calculate ROI on actual results, track statistics such as force, power, speed, and torque, and watch your performance improve with quantifiable data that allows you to maximize your training and results.
With Exerfly's motorized technology you can take your workouts to the next level with an increased resistance between 1-80% in the eccentric phase. For example, if the user selects a 10% boost, then whatever energy they put into the concentric phase of the movement will be amplified by 10% in the eccentric phase.
This type of supramaximal eccentric overloading is unique to Exerfly and can be highly beneficial in many different areas, including muscle hypertrophy and injury prevention.
With Exerfly, you can train sports movements adhaering to the principle of specificity. Whether that be throwing, punching, swinging a bat, kicking or rowing, flywheel training force-time profiles are highly movement specific and target the musculature underlying sporting movement.
You can train all contraction types and combinations (isometric, concentric, eccentric and stretch-shorten cycle) with ease. Add the previously mentioned loading parameters and you can induce any adaptation you seek.
You can add up to 10 red flywheels for slow isometrics, and to increase the motorized technology, so you have no limit on the load you want to work with.
Your Ultimate purchase includes a 30 day money back guarantee, 2 year warranty and Free shipping and taxes
Both the exerfly portable and platform products will continue to be beneficial for our basketball players. The unique resistance profile can facilitate higher impulse-oriented loading at troublesome joint angles, such as deeper ranges of flexion during squatting exercises.
Traveling with the Exerfly Portable has added immense value to our training on the road. The type of resistance provided by the flywheel is just something that is hard to mimic without the equipment itself. The Portable is extremely easy to set up and break down, and has stood up against the rigors of NBA travel.
The versatility of the Exerfly Platform is unmatched by any other piece of flywheel equipment on the market. Firstly, being able to use 1 or 2 straps is a huge advantage. Unlike other equipment with 1 strap , the Platform can be better set up for things like deadlifts with 2 separate handles or a shoulders elevated hip bridge with a straight bar. This has allowed us to utilize the flywheel stress with most of our exercises.
The Platform motor feature also has huge potential to enhance our training in our foundational exercises like squatting and hinging. Basketball players are subjected to immense forces as they move into and out of positions of ankle, knee, and hip flexion. The Platform motor can increase the speed of the spinning wheel during the eccentric portion of the exercise, facilitating higher force outputs that would be hard to mimic using any other method.
I believe the Exerfly products provide a type of stressor at an intensity that will allow us to make serious improvements in our KPIs.
We are lucky that the Exerfly company has been responsive, open minded, and eager to innovate using the feedback of coaches in the field. They are already ahead of most other companies in this particular space, and we are excited for the continued evolution!
“The sports that I work with predominantly are very measured, so physical performance is a prerequisite. Trying to develop that physicality has become somewhat of an obsession of mine, and I like to find ways of doing things better – which is why I use Exerfly.”
“The athletes I work with are speed and power athletes, so physical performance is a prerequisite. We’ve been using Exerfly for several years now, and the ability to train these high power qualities in different planes, rotationally, and in different aspects has been extremely advantageous. I’m using it because it works.”
“The ability to take Exerfly and travel with it has been something that I’ve never seen before, and there’s a lot of elite athletes around the globe now using Exerfly. And that’s a testimony to the company, that Exerfly has been flexible and has continued to develop.”
“Most of the movements we do in sports are not strength orientated, they’re power orientated. And most of that is high-velocity power. For somebody to jump high or run fast, it’s not a slow grinding strength like you might see in powerlifting – it’s elastic power and high-speed muscle power, and you can train both of these with Exerfly.”
When it comes to strength training equipment for my athletes, I am of the minimalistic camp. I really like the adjustable rack mounted flywheel from exerfly. First of all for its versatility as the adjustable height opens up many possibilities for different exercises as well as stressing different portions of the same exercise. It is also important that the flywheel comes with measuring capabilities and a simple app that tells you what amount of work is done which is not always the case with inertial equipment. I am grateful to exerfly for the quality of their product and the quick customer service they provide despite being exactly on the other side of the world from me.
I like the ability to introduce a different way of training regimen into my schedule and routine. It gives my body a different way of adapting to load and intensity. Exerfly has increased power and endurance during strength sessions and explosiveness. Exerfly equipment has been a great addition to my strength component as well as strength endurance. Full body workouts are very challenging with limitless moderation of effort. I have enjoyed a lot for the communication and introduction to Exerfly and the expertise to get the best out of the equipment.
Exerfly is my equipment of choice in flywheel training technology. The equipment is versatile and easy to use. I have found the rack mounted unity system especially effective in my work with throwers, volleyball players and swimmers. A very versatile tool.
Researchers investigated the influence of a weekly bout of inertial squat resistance exercise offering eccentric overload on lower limb muscle power and patellar tendon complaints on over 80 basketball and volleyball players of both sexes.
They found that adding a weekly eccentric overload squat training bout to a regular basketball and volleyball exercise routine enhances lower limb muscle power without triggering patellar tendon complaints.
Exerfly started off with two people with a love for fitness and software, Nick and Jordan, who collaborated with leading professionals from New Zealand Olympics, the All Blacks, New Zealand Cricket such as Angus Ross, Tom Walksh and Valerie Adams to create equipment which would get New Zealand the performance edge to compete on the world stage.
Exerfly grew to a team of over 30 people just over one year, experiencing high growth whilst launching in a pandemic.
