Now, if we do like NFL off-season training or, you know, we've got a group of combat athletes, they may have similar workouts and some of them may have differences in that, in that group workout as well, but what I found out is all of these things, and this is interesting, golf had been the most helpful type of training that I've ever done [laughs] before.
I'm big on rotary power, anti-rotation, segregating the movement of the upper and the lower body.
But all of those things coincided to where a lot of these training programs are really similar for the athletes.
Now remember, we are not a skill development center, so I don't pretend that I'm a defensive end coach.
But what we do is we help them with their biomechanics that they need to facilitate their movements without having compensation, while reducing their injury.
And the number one thing that I think makes us different is we are working on acceleration-based training, right? And, and we specifically use the Keiser for that.
Like when everyone says, "Oh man, I've never worked out like that before," that, that g- got our nervous system where it's because I am trying to allow them to understand that the faster they initiate their movement, the more power that they're gonna produce, right? They can cover more ground in a, in, in a sprint because they're opening up their stride length, because they're reaching acceleration at a more rapid rate than the person right next to them, right? I'll use like David Henry as an example in the NFL.
His stride length is so big and powerful, he approaches terminal velocity very, very, very quickly, right? So again, using all those methodologies, and I really think that focusing on that initial acceleration, how fast we can produce speed, has been single-handedly a, a huge game changer for, for our facility.
They're very specific, very specific things that we do, you know, with the Keiser.
Being able to get live feedback, you know? That's also huge, right? No other machine can give you live feedback.
Now, the cool thing is, is people having seen the analog screen, that when they get to the digital one their mind is completely blown.
We're fortunate enough to have one of your deadlifts here, and then they're like, "Wow, holy crap.
We've never seen..." Being able to have live feedback, like that doesn't even make sense to them.
So all those tools are so helpful in the way that we're able to execute what we're doing with the clients.
