What
is Sportsmetrics™?
Dr.
Frank Noyes and the doctors and researchers at Cincinnati
SportsMedicine Research and Education Foundation have been leaders
in developing programs to ensure athletes play well and stay well.
Sportsmetrics™
is a scientifically proven, six-week jump training program that incorporates
proper stretching, special plyometric exercises and weight training.
It focuses on developing overall leg
strength as well as improving
balance in strength from the front to the back of the
thigh.
Through specialized progression of jump/plyometric drills,
athletes learn proper techniques for
jumping and landing; increase overall leg strength;
improve symmetry in right-to-left leg power and improve
vertical jump.

Why
is Sportsmetrics™ training so unique?
Sportsmetrics™
is
not just another plyometric training program. Training proceeds from
technique development to performance enhancement with each session
building on the previous bout of training.
The strength and flexibility components have also been
carefully reviewed for safety and effectiveness.
Essential to the success of the athlete is the trainer
interaction and feedback throughout the program.
Student to trainer ratios are kept
at 6 to 1 or better to ensure that each athlete receives
individualized recommendations and attention. |

Analysis can accurately detect potential fatal flaws in
technique, such as "knock knees", and allow
instructors to correct them.

What
can Sportsmetrics™ do for me?
Get
involved in a training program that addresses your needs. Today, 27
years after a federal mandate was enacted to provide gender equity
in sports, a new generation of female athletics has emerged.
Sportsmetrics™ is
the first program scientifically proven to
decrease knee injuries in female athletes.
Neuromuscular training not only increases muscular power and
jump height, but also decreases impact forces at the knee. Sportsmetrics™
is the program that focuses on the female athlete’s needs in
training, but Sportsmetrics™
is not just for females!
Males will benefit from developing overall leg strength and
perfecting jumping and landing mechanics, too.
