New Research Highlights Performance Gains with
Technologically Advanced Training Tools
GARDEN
GROVE, Calif., Aug. 14,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- BodyKore, a leader in smart
fitness solutions, is proud to announce the results of a recent
scientific study it sponsored in collaboration with the co-creators
of the Hyperbolic Suit (Hyperbolic Suit, LLC). Conducted on
college athletes, the study utilized BodyKore's state-of-the-art
Smart Sled Pro alongside the Hyperbolic Suit to assess the
potential impact of advanced training tools on athletic
performance. The findings reveal notable improvements in
vertical jump height and a significant 16% increase in sled power
output for the intervention group, compared to just a 5% increase
in the control group, underscoring BodyKore's commitment to
innovation in athletic training.
"We are proud to support research that can
help athletes reach their full potential." – Leo Chang, CEO of BodyKore
"This study reflects our dedication to pushing the boundaries of
athletic performance through cutting-edge technology," said
Leo Chang, CEO of BodyKore. "We are
proud to support research that can help athletes reach their full
potential."
Key Points of the Study
Overview: The study evaluated the impact of the
Hyperbolic Suit on vertical jump height, force output and sled
power output over a five-day period.
Participants: 13 college athletes were divided into two
groups: control (9) and intervention (4). The intervention group
wore the Hyperbolic Suit during Day 3 warm-ups.
Testing Protocol: Performance metrics were recorded on
Days 1, 3, and 5. Days 2 and 4 were rest days.
Results:
- The intervention group showed a 6% increase in vertical jump
height compared to a slight decrease in the control group.
- Both groups experienced fatigue-induced declines in force
output, but the intervention group's decline was less severe.
- Sled power output increased by 16% in the intervention group,
compared to a 5% increase in the control group.
What is the BodyKore Smart Sled Pro?
The Smart Sled Pro is a groundbreaking creation featuring dual
magnetic motors, digitized resistance (up to three times greater
than other sleds), multi-planar movement, live data analytics, and
customizable training modes. The sled was used in the study for its
precision in measuring athletic performance data in real-time.
What is the Hyperbolic Suit?
Developed by former professional basketball players Alex and Cheyenne Myers, the Hyperbolic Suit
enhances athletic performance through Neuro-Muscular Facilitation
(NMF), an evolution of traditional Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve
Stimulation (TENS) technology often used in physical therapy. The
suit facilitates higher muscular recruitment in conjunction with
voluntary movement to strengthen neuro-muscular connections,
reformatting the body's natural responses for enhanced performance,
and accelerating the development of muscle memory and coordination.
The result is improved muscular efficiency, increased strength,
power, and endurance, and reduced injury risk.
Scientific Backing and Practical Application
Research has indicated that training with the Hyperbolic Suit
can lead to substantial performance improvements and injury
prevention. Athletes using the suit have experienced significant
gains in strength, power, and speed, as well as enhanced recovery
and reduced muscle soreness. The latest study, supported by
BodyKore's cutting-edge training tools, reinforces the importance
of integrating advanced technologies into athletic training.
"BodyKore's Smart Sled Pro, with its multi-directional movement
and live data analytics, provided the perfect platform to help
validate the Hyperbolic Suit's impact on performance," said
Alex Myers. "We are excited to
collaborate with BodyKore and push fitness into the
future."
