With Covid-19 making travel difficult, we now offer our program remotely via Zoom. Our Tension Reduction, Stress Reduction, drills, video analysis, flexibility measurements and proprietary stretches (which make up 90% of our program to improve performance) can all be done remotely. One of our golfers has already increased his flexibility 47% and improved his putting 300% during just the first week of his remote program. Contact us via email at [email protected] for more information or to schedule an initial evaluation.

There has been much written about the causes of the recent mass shootings. Our analysis points to school backpacks as the main culprit. Nine peer-reviewed studies have documented that school backpacks reduce lung capacity. We have found it becomes chronic after a few years carrying backpacks. This reduces brain oxygen, decreasing school grades and the ability to handle stress. Our complete analysis can be seen at https://bit.ly/2KyF0xC

Nine studies have found that school backpacks reduce lung capacity up to 40%. We have found it can be permanent and grades, self-confidence and mood suffer. https://bit.ly/2FZspm6

School backpacks found to lower school grades! Starting in 2000, young competitive swimmers entered our swim camps with just 1-2" chest expansion, compared to 2-3" prior. As we released the tension and microfibers restricting their chests, they recalled carrying a heavy backpack to school every day. Bigger, heavier backpacks became common in the mid0-90's. From 1996 to 2004 there was a 40% drop in STEM majors among college freshmen. A college student who was put on Ritalin when young went from making a C+ average to graduating with straight A's in 2 majors and 2 minors after we doubled his chest expansion from 2" to 4". He later calculated he carried a total of 21,400 libs from 1st to 12th grade.

After we doubled his chest expansion from 2" to 4" and his vital capacity from 3.02 liters to 4.01 liters, one of our athletes transferred from an entry level college where his GPA was C+ to a full university where he graduated with A's in two majors and two minors. He recalled carrying a heavy backpack to school every day but was skeptical that it could have restricted his chest expansion until he calculated the total weight he carried from the beginning of 1st grade to the end of 12th grade--21,000 lbs. or 6.5 Toyotas. Now he understands how his school backpack lowered his school grades.

Heavy School Backpacks Linked to Lower School Grades Somax Performance Institute Finds Heavy School Backpacks Reduce Brain Oxygen Since the mid-90’s, school children have been carrying heavy backpacks to and from school every day. Doctors and parents have expressed concerns that these heavy backpacks may be contributing to musculo-skeletal problems....Continue reading

Have you tested your hip strength? Hip rotation strength is the most important in sports since the power in sports (golf, tennis, baseball, soccer, swimming, etc.) comes from the rotation of the hips. If your hips are weak, you cannot rotate them fast enough to develop good club head, bat, racquet, hand or foot speed. To test, lie on your stomach on the floor. Keeping your knees together, move your feet apart as far as you can. Have someone your size and strength hold your... feet apart as you try to bring them together (don't do this test if you have any knee problems--consult your physician first). The minimum strength you need for an efficient swing, stroke or kick is when you can throw someone 10 feet back across the room as you snap your feet together. Anything less, and you will not be able to develop full power from your hips. Unfortunately, squats, lunges, dead lifts, etc. do not increase the strength of the hip rotators as there is no rotation in these exercises. Fortunately, the Power Hip Trainer (www.swing-speed.com) is designed to do one thing--increase the strength of your hip rotation muscles. Test yourself this week. You may uncover a weak spot in your sport.
