Down-Right Speed and Jumps have joined forces with Accelerated Recovery Performance (ARP)
Wednesday, May 14, 2008

Down-Right Speed and Jumps have joined forces with Accelerated Recovery Performance (ARP) program to bring the company's cutting edge technology to the UK market.

The technology that utilises a revolutionary electro muscular stimulation device known as the "ARP Trainer", which allows muscles to recover to thier natural length in seconds.





Tom Crick comments "The system is cool because it has numerous different applications; on the one hand we can use it to restore an athletes natural range of motion in as little as 5 minutes, while on the other it can be used to recruit fast twich fibres maximally so you can develop explosive strength and power. Thirdly, the system increases the speed of recovery from all sports training injuries - usually in around half the time expected. Furthermore, the ARP blends the boundaries between training and recovery because it helps return the athletes muscles to a high level of fuctioning during the treatment protocols. Simply put, as you treat a muscle you also strengthen it.

We are using the ARP before every track sessiona and even inbetween reps to enhance recovery and keep tightness at bay. When we learn how to combine its unique features with our current training program I believe it will reduce injuries and increase performance giving down-right athletes a real advantage."

The system is currently being extensivly tested by athletes within the down-right team and more details of the results achieved will be published in the near future.
