Does the Data Plate Add Resistance?Updated a month ago
No, the Data Plate does not add any resistance to your ANCORE or ANCORE Pro unit.
What the Data Plate Does
The Data Plate is purely a tracking device that:
- Measures your movement and performance
- Records your workout data
- Provides real-time feedback
Your Resistance Stays the Same
- No change to your workout intensity - all resistance comes from your attached resistance plates
- No impact on your lift feel - the Data Plate is lightweight and doesn't affect the movement
- Pure data collection - it's like having a coach watching and recording, but not changing your weights
Focus on Performance
Instead of adding resistance, the Data Plate helps you optimize the resistance you're already using by showing you exactly how you're performing with each rep.
Think of it as your training assistant - it watches, learns, and helps you improve, but never gets in the way of your actual workout.
