Athletic Performance Optimization
We utilize the world’s most advanced technology in a full-scale research facility to comprehensively understand the individuality of an athlete to foster development and optimize performance.
Athletic Power Assessment
Most athletes recognize that they need to train to improve, but struggle identifying where to focus their attention in terms of strength, speed, or mobility. To address these concerns, our team can evaluate an individual’s athleticism through a dedicated power screen.
Injury Prevention
We are focused on helping athletes move better and feel better by identifying and rectifying dysfunctional movement patterns before compensation strategies can disrupt joint functionality.
Functional Movement Screening
A functional movement screen (FMS) is an organized system for documenting an athlete’s movement patterns. This approach identifies an athlete’s movement deficiencies and asymmetries in an objective rating and ranking system.
Athletic Performance Optimization
At Epic Sports Biomechanics, LLC., we utilize the world’s most advanced technology in a full-scale research facility to comprehensively understand the individuality of an athlete to foster development and optimize performance. Our training staff works to identify each individual’s biomechanical profile. At the very core, biomechanics is the study of the human body’s structure and function using mechanical methods. In these terms, the Epic team assesses the athlete’s body from a functional perspective and quantifies their general athletic and sport-specific metrics. The data collected defines the athlete’s biomechanical profile which is used to drive athlete specific training and program that will optimize performance. The biomechanical profile details the specific characteristics of the athlete including:
- Individualized joint forces and torques
- Body segment velocities and accelerations
- Segment-to-segment gains throughout the kinetic chain
- Athletic power production biomarkers
- Critical output performance metrics
- Ground reaction forces and center of pressure mapping
- Injury risk and athletic workload
- Speed and strength foundational baselines
- Movement pattern deficiencies and asymmetries
Injury Prevention is Paramount
HITTRAX
Enables Epic biomechanists to analyze the performance metrics of baseball players. Whether the athlete is focused on hitting, pitching, or catching, the data collected facilitates a comprehensive view of performance. The output performance metrics include batted ball exit velocity, launch angle, and point of contact, as well as pitched ball velocity, location, and late break. The full gaming option also exposes athletes to full-scale competitive environments to evaluate in-game performance.
Learn MoreHigh-Speed Cameras
Critical to modern pitch design strategies, these high-speed cameras capably capture the pitcher’s release point, grip, finger position, spin axis, pitch trajectory, and pitch tunneling effectiveness, which are unavailable to the naked eye.
Learn MoreBoditrak
Used to assess, retrain, and validate athletic performance. Epic performance specialists utilize this technology to evaluate the ground reaction forces, center of pressure, and other critical performance metrics of a hitter.
