Speed Mechanics

Speed mechanics (and athleticism) is the optimization of movement to be more efficient. Its the mechanical leverage and coordination that gets the body moving and staying in motion.

Picture an athlete as a stick figure, with the body being a series of levers. The better the pattern by which those levers operate, the more efficient (with less stress and impact) the athlete.

Combined with established postural/functional strength, key components to improve speed mechanics include:

• Repetition: movement is a skill you create through positive repetition 
• Timing: optimize the rhythm of your movement
• Coordination: synchronize all aspects of your speed mechanics

We selected this collection of products to focus on repetition and coordination. If you want to maximize your acceleration and speed, add power to your speed mechanics from our Strength & Power collection.
