Exerfly RackFly

Better than any cable machine you’ll ever use
Designed & Manufactured in New Zealand

This is the Exerfly RackFly

This is the Exerfly RackFly

The lightest flywheel device yet, train with constant resistance throughout an entire range of movements and exercises with an unlimited load or eccentric overload, with just 4kgs.

We’ve made what every fitness professional needs in their life, this is the RackFly.

We’ve created a device that your competition will hate

Built by champions, for champions

Cable machines are regarded as a popular device at the gym, especially for strength training. If your objective is to improve muscular definition and strength, its most likely that you’ll cross paths with one or two exercises with cables.

However, cables can't provide eccentric overload, thus hindering your muscle adaptation. Cables can’t train you at both high speeds and high loads over the full range of movement, thus neglecting your body the opportunity to absorb higher forces. Cables don’t provide constant resistance, nor can they mimic the velocity of your movements.

And finally, cables cannot fit into your lifestyle (unless you plan on moving into the gym?) thus failing to become a transportable device able to be provided anywhere and anytime. For those of us that need consistency when training- whether that be athletes, body builders or dedicated gym goers- devices such as cable machines are just too big and impractical to take with us on our journeys.

Decrease your training time and residual fatigue like never before. Initially designed for New Zealand throwers, the RackFly attaches to any squat rack and is especially suited to multi-directional throwing sports, as it allows athletes to recreate real rotational sports movements such as throwing, swinging a bat, or swimming.

The RackFly allows upper body exercises such as single-arm pulls and pushes, as well as rotational movements such as throwing, lateral swings, or rowing. It can also be used for exercises such as lateral kicks or single-leg mountain climbers.

For The Fitness Fanatic Training At Home

The Exerfly RackFly is the ideal training solution for users on the go or training with limited space. Featuring an optional sensor and a removable top that can be attached to any vertical structure to train rotational and lateral movements, the RackFly provides a totally versatile method of training.

Offering a full gym set-up, the RackFly is lightweight, quick to assemble, and can be packed into a bag effortlessly for transport or storage. Now you can train your way - from home, from the park, the office, or all around the world.

For The Physical Therapist Rehabbing Clients

You never would have thought you could fit an entire gym in your office until the Exerfly RackFly. Office (and wallet) friendly, the RackFly’s compact design fits into any small space, meaning you won’t be needing to buy multiple pieces of equipment or rent a large space for a gym. The Exerfly RackFly is particularly advantageous for shoulder or upper body rehabilitation.

Designed for dynamic movements, the RackFly facilitates the rotational exercises necessary for shoulder or rotator cuff exercises. Proven to show significant benefits for injury prevention as well as injury management, the RackFly’s Flywheel technology involves constant resistance, allowing for a fuller training regime that targets all parts of a movement for a rounded, quick recovery.

Features

Flywheel vs. Traditional Training

With traditional weights, the weight is static, so resistance is only felt in the concentric phase. Take a bicep curl, for example. Typically, you pull a weight from your thigh to your chest in a circular motion, experiencing resistance as the weight comes up towards you.

Once the weight has passed 90 degrees, the resistance shifts and you are pushing the weight against gravity, which often leads to suboptimal form, as the body adjusts to the changing resistance. When lowering the weight, you’re no longer pulling against gravity, so there is less resistance and it feels much easier.

With Flywheel training, resistance is felt on the way up and the way day, stimulating the eccentric phase of movement. When engaging in flywheel training, the individual uses their force to spin the flywheel, then to slow the flywheel’s momentum.

When pulling the flywheel, it pulls back with the same force, allowing users to control resistance through the modification of the flywheel inertia and the force production of the users.

Variable Resistance

Variable resistance devices such as the RackFly are particularly beneficial because they allow users to work with a force load that matches their output throughout the workout. The resistance increases as they train harder and decreases when they get weaker.

This means that it can be used for all populations, whether bodybuilders, the elderly, or injured athletes. Because of this, variable machines are very sought after by trainers, as their trainees can use them easily and track progress easily.

Eccentric Training

When exercising, your muscles are either contracting
Concentrically
Muscle fibers shortening
Eccentrically
Muscle fibers lengthening
Isometrically
Muscle fibers stay the same

Eccentric contractions act as a braking mechanism. They control the lowering of weight while maintaining tension through the muscle.

The eccentric part of a movement is when the working muscles elongate and create tension. Eccentric training specifically targets this mode of contraction, which is hugely beneficial as you are much stronger eccentrically than concentrically, resulting in eccentric specific adaptations.

Eccentric Training Benefits

Low metabolic cost
Metabolic cost is an essential characteristic of motor activities that can influence daily activity and have health implications. Having a low metabolic cost means your body has to work less during the exercise spending less energy.
More force production
Force production has been directly linked to improved performance during jumping, weightlifting, cycling, sprinting, and golf swings – suggesting a better rate of force development can lead to better athletic performance.
Increased flexibility by increasing muscle length
Eccentric exercises shift the length-tension relationship up and to the right, meaning you can produce more force at longer muscle lengths.
Type IIX muscle fibers maintenance
Type IIX fibers are used for short explosive activities that require significant power and speed. Even inactive people need to be able to run quickly or lift something in an emergency.

Motorized Technology

Motorized Technology

The RackFly can also include Exerfly’s advanced motorized technology, meaning you can take your workouts to the next level with an increased resistance between 1-80% in the eccentric phase.

Overloading eccentrically can be highly beneficial in many different areas, including muscle hypertrophy and injury prevention. 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.

Train Real Sports Movements

With the Exerfly RackFly, you can train real sports movements with ease. The RackFly is often a favorite of sports teams based around movements such as throwing, swinging a bat, rowing, punching, or other rotational based movements.

Combined with its small size, it makes the perfect addition to home gyms or traveling sports teams needing to round out their setup with elite equipment.

How To Pick Your Flywheels

How To Pick Your Flywheels

1x Tiny (0.01)

Used mainly for shoulder rehab and is used for small muscle group for incremental movements.

1x Small (0.025)

Used to recreate different sporting movements and is used for smaller muscle groups to train at low force high speed e.g. glutes

1x Medium (0.05)

Used for higher force loads and at a quicker speed

2x Large (0.2)

Used for big muscle groups, one red flywheel can produce up to 100kgs/220lbs of force. One to two red flywheels are for high forces at high speeds. Any flywheels added to that are for performing at a lower speed with high forces and increased resistance, mostly used by powerlifters.

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.

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.

Scientific Studies

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.

Born and Bred in Christchurch

Exerfly equipment is designed, manufactured, engineered and tested in Christchurch, New Zealand to make sure the equipment is up to our gold bar standard.

We work with the best team of engineers and products to create equipment that is virtually indestructible and irreplicable.

Hypertrophy

Training with constant resistance allows you to achieve eccentric overload, which in turn is shown to increase muscle hypertrophy, develop fast-twitch muscle fibers, increase speed, power, and explosiveness in muscles, and leads to better overall athletic performance.

Sports Performance

Mimicking sports movements and enhancing performance through eccentric training, Exerfly is the perfect option for sports teams wanting to optimize their training or needing elite equipment for traveling, group training, and reaching peak physical performance.

Rehab and Recovery

Flywheel training is scientifically proven to reduce risk of injury and aid in injury rehabilitation and joint pain, meaning that your athletes can avoid injuries or re-injuries far better than with traditional weights.

Conditioning

By training at speed and with constant resistance, Exerfly places an emphasis on fast-twitch muscle fiber type conversion, which are responsible for speed and power responses in high-intensity sports such as sprinting or jumping. This is hugely beneficial for sporting athletes, allowing better all-round performance and higher returns.
