What is SportsmetricsTM?

SportsmetricsTM is a 6 week program implemented in 3 distinct phases (2 weeks per phase) that was specifically designed to provide neuromuscular retraining, along with coordination, balance, and strength training to prepare an athlete to either avoid, or react immediately, to an injury situation. 
Through research, the program has been proven to: ​
DECREASE:
  • Reaction force dominance (allowing ground reaction forces to control knee joint motion)
  • Quadriceps dominance (increased quadriceps recruitment and decreased hamstring recruitment)
  • Dominant leg dominance (side-to-side differences in strength, flexibility, and coordination)
​
INCREASE:
  • Power
  • Strength
  • Jump Height
Data collected in the past decade comparing teams that went through a SportsmetricsTM training program vs. teams that did not go through the SportsmetricsTM training program have shown a statistically significant difference in the amount of ACL injuries that occurred between the groups. (SportsmetricsTM trained injury rate: .036/1000 exposures vs. Untrained injury rate: .24/1000 exposures)
​

Who is appropriate for SportsmetricsTM?

ANY athlete hoping to decrease the risk of injury, to better prepare for return-to-sport following an injury, OR to generally improve their sports performance.
