Stop the Cycle!

The Next Generation in achieving maximum Performance is at WE-FIX-U

 

Maximizing your performance is EASY…if you know what areas to train.  Most of us think  that working out hard at the gym riding our bike faster each day or running daily at our highest maximum heart rate, is the best way to maximize our performance in our sport of choice.  But, what if it was a lot easier to reach your goals than pushing your body to its max each day?

 

Our body is symmetrical in nature therefore what one side does the other does as well.  The problem is, over time our body learns to compensate for the bumps and bruises, muscle tears and ligament sprains, falling off a bike or recovering from a car accident.  Our brain teaches our body new ways to function to avoid pain, and over time these compensations become our normal way of movement.  Worst of all, we think we are symmetrical, therefore unable to train our true areas of weakness or lost function.

 

 Imagine how much easier training would be if someone told you where your body was compensating for your areas of weakness or dysfunction.  Your goal to reach maximum performance/function would definitely be a lot easier to reach.   For example, you would never reach maximum performance if you did not know how your body is compensating  for your right leg which was 15% weaker than your left,; how you compensated for a tight hamstring by shortening your stride on the right, which then caused your mid-back to over rotate (increasing back pain), which then took away your ability to keep your stride over your base of support, which means your stride will be less effective and fatigue will set in a lot sooner, which in turn causes you pain and a slower race than you have trained for. 

 

This is not your fault,- you train hard and to the best of your ability.  The problem is, people cannot see their own small compensations that have developed over the years.  If you are willing to change your old ways of training,  and demand for improvement,  then there is hope! The technology used by Olympic and Professional athletes is here in Northumberland!   OPTOJUMP NEXT and the experienced health experts at WE-FIX-U have been helping athletes of all levels reach their maximum performance/function and the results speaks for themselves.  We have the ability to test you with OPTOJUMP NEXT, which can tell us your areas of compensation, weakness, power, decreased muscle and joint function, fatigue-ability, reaction time, speed, and stride length.  Along with this data OPTOJUMP NEXT uses Video Analysis to help our Health Professionals see your compensations and poor technique at a speed (1000milasecond) that most would miss with the naked eye. Its precise appraisal of movement means that problem areas can be addressed long before they turn into injuries, and it makes possible a crucial, objective evaluation of an athlete's preparedness to return to play after injury.

 

Discovering your areas of compensation and getting to the root of why is so important when training for an event or just to reach maximum pain free function.   OPTOJUMP NEXT gives the accuracy and details needed to give us the best diagnosis, which means you get results fast, that last.

 

OPTOJUMP NEXT can be used on anyone who wants to improve or maintain an optimal fitness level,  and/or decrease current compensations which can lead to losses in performance/function and pain.
