Cord Technology
(used selectively in sport-specific training)

Our Cord Programs implement the use of various resistance cords for sport-specific training. The use of our cord technology enhances your workouts by providing resistance to upper and lower body extremities, building more powerful motions for sprinting, jumping, kicking, throwing, hitting, swinging or other sport-specific motions.

  • strengthens the entire shoulder and chest as it replicates the radiated arm motion used during athletic play
  • supplies athletes in contact sports with improved force to run, jump and tackle
  • can be used for both single-arm and double-arm exercises
  • supplies traditional upper body strength and plyometrics training in one machine

SprintCords

The SprintCords are patented, lower extremity, resistance-training cords implemented during running or hockey Program sessions and during floor work.

SprintCords enable proprioceptive recruitment of the specific neuromusculature associated with sprinting (on land or ice) and other related motions. Athletes can build powerful motions for sprinting, jumping, kicking or other sport-specific motion.

PowerCordŽ

Along with a specialized-training protocol, the PowerCord™ helps build sport-specific power skills such as shooting, throwing and hitting. PowerCords are used in conjunction with the sport-specific training protocols for volleyball, baseball/softball, basketball and hockey. Athletes looking for improvement in any sport-specific movement utilizing the upper extremities will benefit from using the PowerCord™.

ThrowingCord™

To improve throwing velocity, we combine our training protocol with the patented ThrowingCord™, manipulating the neuromuscular system and developing strength and mechanics specific to throwing a baseball, softball, football or even javelin. We have observed an average improvement in throwing velocity of 4 miles per hour with college players, and every player from youth through professionals have witnessed improvements in throwing velocity.

HittingCord™/Harness

Optimizing the mechanics taught by coaches, the hitting Program, utilizing the HittingCord™/Harness, recruits all muscles involved in swinging a bat, a golf club or a tennis racquet to develop greater swing speed and hip rotation. Players from the youth to professional levels are using this training technology to achieve excellent results for baseball, softball and golf.

KickingCord™

Our patented KickingCord™ engages the specific recruitment of all muscles involved in kicking, developing optimal kicking mechanics and concentric and eccentric strength — which contribute to a successful Program, with documented results in NFL place-kickers and punters. Athletes in soccer and the martial arts benefit as well.
