1. HANDLE FITNESS® EQUIPMENT

1.1 What kind of ball can you use?

The Lzaer™ works with any type of ball as long as it is the general size and shape of a basketball; excluding "black" basketball(s).

1.2. How is The Lazer™ 900 different than The Lazer™ 500 or The Lazer™ 100?

The only difference is simply presentation. The 900 comes in a big shiny metal box with a 24" touchscreen monitor display. The 500 comes in a portable fold-out briefcase that includes a 19" monitor display. And the 100 comes with just the mini-computer and infrared camera you can hook to your own TV at home or in your gym. However, they ALL COME WITH THE EXACT SAME SOFTWARE INCLUDING THE EXACT SAME DRILLS, THE EXACT SAME WORKOUTS, THE EXACT SAME EXERCISES. Again, the only difference is presentation.

1.3. Can I use The Lazer™ if I have never played basketball?

Yes! Of course, when we put the machine in front of skilled players (high school, college, or pro) they pick it up immediately. But there's also a ton of people who are not skilled at basketball that have tried out our machine and picked it up after a few tries and had fun while training. The Lazer™ is an awesome way to introduce your body to the [fluid] movements of basketball. It may be a challenge for you to train on the most difficult setting, but you can start at a beginner level and work your way up as your stamina, coordination, balance, core strength, and muscle memory improve.

1.4. Can I use The Lazer™ if I am not very fit or have not worked out in a long time?

Yes! The Lzaer™ is adjustable for all levels, even for someone with less than ideal coordination and a lower fitness level. The reason we created HANDLE FITNESS® is to inspire players who have been disillusioned and bored by other workouts. So even if its been years since you've stuck with an exercise program, The Lazer™ will engage your body and mind to elevate your fitness.

1.5. What if I have an injury?

The Lazer™ is a wonderful rehab tool for bad joints and tissue injuries, but only if used under the guidance of a professional. The workouts are high intensity but low impact, meaning you will get all of the physical benefits without damage and overuse of fragile joints.

1.6. How big is The Lazer™ , can I store it in my house?

The Lazer™ 900 has a footprint the size of a regular treadmill. Without the base it stands vertically at: 76” H x 27” W x 11” D.

1.7. How much does it weigh?

The Lazer™ 900 weighs approximately 195 pounds and is extremely portable in case of a need to move it around between workouts or for easy storage. It comes equipped with locking wheels and casters at the base for immediate stop-and-go mobility.

1.8. Is there a limit for how many users can train at the same time?

The Lazer™ utilizes infrared technology can detect up to two (2) players ALL at the same time. The wide-angle view of this state-of-the-art infrared camera allows for each player to dribble and control their own basketball without disrupting the next player’s personal space or making the training area colluded. The Lazer™ is a great tool to develop team chemistry, rhythmic unity, and superior camaraderie.

1.9. Does using The Lazer™ feel like real basketball?

Yes! The Lazer™ was created to perfectly mimic the feeling and the physical demands of basketball. The unique motion-based tracking of our exercise machine extolls the exact same offensive and defensive skill-sets found within the real sport, and allows you to train the same muscle groups as any aspiring basketball player would without the rim.

1.10. Is there a warranty?

There is a five (5) year warranty on the metal frame enclosure and a one (1) year warranty on the operating system.

1.11. What is the return policy and/or exchanges for replacement?

After 14 days upon delivery ALL SALES ARE FINAL. In addition, a 30% restock fee will be issued towards the purchaser. Customer is responsible for their own shipping costs (inbound/outbound) domestically and internationally to return any malfunctioning hardware item(s) deemed under warranty for exchange or replacement.

1.12. Is The Lazer™ suitable for children?

Yes! The Lazer™ is a fun AND safe way for kids to get in shape and real learn basketball skill-sets at the same time. The workouts are low impact and so as not to stunt growth or lead to injury. We have even developed special training videos for children, email handlefitness@gmail .com for more details.

1.13. Are there HANDLE FITNESS® workouts I can do besides dribbling?

Yes! Our team of Fitness professionals will release downloadable content (DLC) on a monthly basis including warm-up drills, pivot moves/footwork techniques, defensive prowess, 2-ball dexterity, and much more.

2. HANDLE FITNESS® CLASSES

2.1. What is the HANDLE FITNESS® workout method?

The HANDLE FITNESSS® workout method is an interactive fitness program inspired by the sport of Basketball without the rim. HANDLE FITNESS® is the world's most unique workout, combining elements of aerobic fat burning, speed, agility, compound timing, muscle memory, pattern recognition, and core training in one 60 minute routine utilizing our motion-based exercise machine.

Our Fitness Team draws inspiration from the spontaneous spirit of Basketball, and each workout is designed to push your limits for ultimate results. HANDLE FITNESSS® focuses heavily on neuromuscular coordination and the core: where all of our strength and body control stem from. Imagine combining the cardio benefits of a treadmill with the muscle toning of a leg press the and compound timing benefits of Guitar Hero™. Now Let’s learn how to break a sweat & break ankles!

2.2. What are the benefits of HANDLE FITNESS® classes?

HANDLE FITNESS® is designed to combine the benefits of cardio training, strength training, and balance training in one workout. This means improved aerobic conditioning, eye/hand coordination, increased core strength, agility, explosiveness, power, stability, and balance. We focus on transitional fluid-like movements that incorporate all major muscle groups and the tiny stabilizer muscles that give your body shape and improve cardiovascular health. HANDLE FITNESS® will help define and shape your upper arms, strengthen your obliques for a tight, toned torso, and continuously work your legs in isometric contractions for that long, lean athletic look.

2.3. Why is basketball such a good workout?

Basketball, if not the, is one of the most athletic sports on the planet. It works all major muscle groups in a dynamic environment that demands extreme focus and core strength. Cardio from ripping and running down the court, jolting and stopping on a dime, explosive dunks and impromptu jumpshots, and multiple isometric contractions of the legs can ALL be derived from the BB-EXGM. If you look at a basketball player’s physique you can see that the sport promotes long, lean muscle rather than the bulky body builder look. HANDLE FITNESS® draws on all of the movements of Basketball to bring the body benefits to you without the rim.

2.4. Who can benefit from HANDLE FITNESS® classes?

Anyone who wants to break out of their traditional workout routine and shake things up---literally!---to start seeing some real results will love HANDLE FITNESS®. The adjustability of the HF-EXM 900 and built in progression of the program makes HANDLE FITNESSS® an awesome class for the true beginner to the extreme athlete.

2.5. Does HANDLE FITNESS® have different types of workouts?

Yes! There are OVER 1 MILLION signature drills, cardio routines, and lateral exercises including:

ISOMETRICS: Learn the fundamentals of ball-handling; improving cardiovascular health, core strength, balance, speed, agility, eye/hand coordination, and "court vision".

FOOTWORK: Build stimulus reaction training through compound timing and spatial awareness techniques; in addition to multi-post pivot moves from the guard to forward to center position(s).

DEXTERITY: Introducing 2-ball dribbling in high-intensity intervals. Burn up to 200 calories per Session while developing superior neuromuscular coordination and dynamic pattern recognition.

REACTIVITY: This fast-paced program combines elements of defensive slides, stance, and prowess through lateral quickness drills along with strength and conditioning methods from all four programs. This is our most advanced program, building lean muscle, core strength, stability, agility, and spontaneity. We introduce resistance bands specifically during defensive sessions to further generate max results.

2.6. How can I find a HANDLE FITNESS® class?

Click here to Find a Class.

2.7. How can I start offering HANDLE FITNESS® classes?

Open a HANDLE FITNESS® Studio.

2.8. How long are HANDLE FITNESS® classes?

HANDLE FITNESS® classes are 60 minutes, structured in high intensity intervals for maximum skill-set training, fat burn, and lean muscle build. Every class finishes with a custom cool down to build balance and flexibility, and a final HANDLE FITNESS® Challenge Routine.

2.9. How many times a week should I take HANDLE FITNESS® classes?

HANDLE FITNESS® is a truly comprehensive full body workout that covers all of the fitness bases and you can do it 5-6 times a week if you'd like! Of course its always beneficial to shake up your training routine and incorporate a few different style workouts, so its definitely up to you how many HANDLE FITNESS® classes you'd like to take. HANDLE FITNESS® is an excellent complement to putting up jumpshots or *actual full-court trainings sessions as well, as it can help balance out your upper and lower body cohesion.

2.10. How many classes until I start seeing results?

You will start seeing and feeling results after just 2 classes. The most pronounced results are based upon rhythmic coordination and development of stamina, endurance training. And you will see how quickly your stimulus reaction skill-set improves within the 1st week!

2.11. How many calories does a HANDLE FITNESS® class burn?

Depending on your age, height, and weight interns of body composition, we have had ranges from 200 per class to 450 per class, with our general 195lbs male burning on average 300 per class. And don't forget that you are building lean muscle, which accelerates your calorie burn and increases your metabolism throughout the day. So even when you finish class and sit down in the car you are burning more calories than usual. This is why our strength training is so beneficial!

2.12. What should I wear to a HANDLE FITNESS® class?

Wear something comfortable, similar to what you would wear to run five on five during pick-up ball. We recommend t-shirt, shorts, and athletic basketball shoes designed for the real court.
