Conditioning Sets for Functional Fitness

Conditioning sets combine everything you need for intensive training of endurance, strength, and coordination. Discover coordinated sets with equipment like kettlebells, dumbbells, jump ropes, wall balls, power sleds, weight vests, or even ergometers – depending on the compilation. This allows you to specifically train your speed strength, endurance, explosiveness, and stability. For even more possibilities, the sets can be optimally combined with weight benches, gym equipment, and complementary tools from the weightlifting category.

Bundles have the advantage of being a professionally coordinated selection for different fitness levels and needs – and also offer a price advantage compared to purchasing individual products.

FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions by Athletes

Who are conditioning sets suitable for?

They are suitable for both beginners and advanced athletes. Beginners benefit from a wide variety of exercises, while advanced athletes can specifically work on endurance and explosiveness.

Do I need a lot of space for conditioning workouts?
