What a move!

Your athletic performance is determined to large extent by how well you control your body movements. You succeed by developing skills to coordinate with those movements.

Consider what you do for fitness or how you prepare for your sport. All the training and hard work boils down to how well you move. It may be sprint speed, lateral shuffling, vertical quickness, change of direction, quickness, shooting, throwing, running backwards, dribbling, and so on. You train and strengthen your body for fluid, co-ordinated
successions of movement that make you a better player.

The following comment from a gentleman who is respected at all levels for his dedication to elevating human performance, says it best:

Vern Gambetta, President of Gambetta Sports Training (Sarasota, Florida), former Director of Conditioning for the Chicago White Sox; “The brain thinks in terms of whole movements not individual muscles. Essentially the muscles are slaves of the brain. When we train isolated movements, we cause neural confusion that ultimately interferes with performance. Therefore, we must get away from the emphasis on isolated movements in strength training – like the leg extension and leg curl – and instead use exercises that involve the whole body. Functional strength, is much more interested in quality of movement than amount of weight lifted. Functional exercise (total body) puts a premium on the mastering of a movement by the athlete. Athletes start by slowly learning the movement, then they perfect the movement, then they add speed, external weight, or difficulty. They practice a very specific movement that would happen on the court or field of play, and use external weights only to make the movement more difficult. And since these movements mimic those they perform on the court, their performance can only benefit as they master the movements.”

Remember……this is very important....your body weight is the most perfect form of resistance.

Now….if you were to put a weighted vest (external resistance) on your body, wouldn’t you want it to feel as much like natural body weight as possible?

Wouldn't you insist that it complement the way you move?

Do you want to move at top speed, as well as adding strength and power?

So that you're faster, quicker, and able to sustain that increased speed?

Sure you do.

That is exactly what the SmartVest will do for you. This is why it was created.
