Increasing numbers of skilled athletes coupled with restrictive positions lead athletes to seek reputable sources and methods to help them enhance their athletic potential. The All-Star Program offers a unique complement to our impressive performance training and insurmountable knowledge of running technique and that method is Digital Video (DV) analysis software.
This digital video analysis is the same software which has been used by the last two Olympics. DV provides a visual presentation to the athlete unlike that gained from rudimentary VCR and TV capabilities. The software can do a frame by frame break down of any activity allowing the athlete to see each movement. This breakdown will allow for specific, yet simple explanations to help improve the activity efficiency.
An array of tools helps portray precise cueing points on the video allowing pinpoint technique presentation. A sampling of these tools is joint angle calculation, stride length measurement, super imposing and stro-motion of videos and Performance Analysis. Each combine athlete will have every repetition of every drill filmed and broken down later in the week. This gives the athlete a type of feedback that cannot be given without this software.
The performance analysis ability of DV opens another facet to training; allowing continued instruction after leaving All-Star. We will provide each athlete with a DVD of all drills performed. This way they can continue to watch and perfect their technique without our assistance.
