Flamengo continues to expand its high-performance structure . The club invested $1 million (approximately R$5.35 million) in new equipment for Ninho do Urubu , including two pieces of equipment that are the first of its kind in Latin America, manufactured by Keiser, a global leader in physical training solutions.
One of the highlights is the Keiser A300 Runner , designed to simulate the acceleration phase of running. Unlike traditional machines, which use iron weights, this model uses compressed air resistance , providing a smoother, jerk-free load, which reduces impact on joints during workouts.
Furthermore, the equipment allows for unilateral or bilateral training, helping to correct common muscular asymmetries in athletes. The integrated digital panel displays real-time data, such as applied load, power, and number of repetitions , allowing for more accurate analysis.
Another unique feature is the inertia-free technology, which prevents the weight from returning to the body at the end of the movement. This feature increases safety and reduces risks to muscles and joints, making the device useful for both explosive work and rehabilitation processes.
Flamengo coordinator on equipment: "These devices are the first in Latin America"
For Flamengo 's sports science coordinator, Cláudio Pavanelli, the investment places the club on a par with European football giants: "Some devices are specifically for athletes. They simulate the execution of a movement, a run, a sprint at high intensity. These devices are the first in Latin America. Only a few major European clubs have acquired this new technology ," he explained.
He continued: " The big difference is that you can analyze the application of force throughout the entire movement . At each joint level, you can identify exactly what is being performed, considering the applied overload and the speed of the movement." With the new investment, Flamengo reinforces its commitment to maintaining a level of physical excellence among its squad, combining performance and injury prevention.
