We’ve spent the majority of 2019 researching data on what makes athletes fast— then how do we diagnose key problem areas quickly & finally what prescription is right for each athlete? Extremely excited for 2020s draft class.

1st thing I look at when evaluating a sprint is the initial projection off the line
When the down hand rises above the sensor, the body needs to project horizontally through an aggressive initial push from both feet.
From looking at data from NFL Combine 2018, the top performers (sub 4.4) all went from 3 pt to “toe off” position in 0.3 seconds or faster
Ralph Mann determined that the world’s fastest sprinters reach this point in about 0.28 seconds at a total body & torso angle of 35 degrees
Interesting to see how similar the fastest athletes in the world are in comparison to the fastest NFL Athletes here...
