How does the speed parachute help you?

Does running with a parachute help lose fat or is it just for speed?

  • I'm looking for a second workout to do because I don't like jogging in my neighborhood so I was wondering if parachute sprints would work even if it takes longer

  • Answer:

    It's good for both. It was initially meant for speed training however it's shown that the resistance from it helps you burn fat as well :-)

Running with a parachute helps lose fat. This is because the extra force pulling you back while running requires you to use the extra force to start running. It is also good for improving your running speed and strength. Check out http://www.livestrong.com/article/178791-running-parachute-workouts/.
