English term or phrase:assisted
I don't understand the term in this context (it's about a whole-body suspension-based piece of sports equipment):
After over a year of steady use, I am still so inspired by the versatility and effectiveness of the XXXX (sports equipment). It is great for young riders because body weight is the only load and this can be ****assisted****. This creates inherent safety but also teaches integrated core stability and balance that must accompany strength training for real world effectiveness. It is also ideal for mature, seasoned athletes because of the multitude of movements, direction of loading and exercise intensities possible, You can isolate known weak areas with a single joint exercise if you wish, but you can also do complex, functional exercises that require integrated and super challenging motion patterns.
Explanation: In this context, the word assisted describes the load of the body weight, and this load could be moved or adjusted freely. For example, if you are doing push-ups, all the load goes to your arms, or if you are standing on one foot, say, your left foot, you try to balance yourself and the load is on your foot left foot.
Therefore, when you are using this sports equipment, you learn how to take balance and stability of your body and you learn exactly where to put your load in order to keep your balance because this equipment requires you to multitude of movements, from a single joint exercise to complex exercises which require challenging motion patterns as it says in the original text.
However with the assisted machines putting the weight at 50, actually means 50 pounds assisted. What this means , is the machine is giving you 50 pounds of assisted help while you are using your weight for the rest of the work. An example would be, if you are using 50 pounds assisted and you weight 150lbs, you are lifting 100 pounds of your own body weight.
If you want a good estimate of how much assisted weight you need, go to the lat pull down machine and see how much weight you can do 10 reps with. If you can lift 50 pounds and you weigh 150, then you need 100 pounds of assisted weight on the assisted machine.
