The Science Behind Optimal Sports Performance

THE SCIENCE

Intra-abdominal pressure (IAP)is crucial for athletic performance, acting as a natural powerhouse that stabilizes your core, spine, pelvis, and rib cage.

Core Energy Belts elevate this pressure to a point of super stiffness. Your body's proximal stiffness impacts energy transfers and muscle contractions throughout your body to support faster movements like hitting and throwing.

ENERGY TRANSFER

By wearing a Core Energy Belt at the right tension, Intra-abdominal Pressure (IAP) is effectively distributed around your core, adding additional support that helps engages your core muscles. This then enables the body to work in unison, improving energy transfer throughout your muscles.

According to our research, 77% of the pitchers had improved throwing arm strength wearing the Core Energy Belt

The research included 13 college pitchers throwing 3 bullpens of 53 total pitches each. The study assessed 159 pitches for each pitcher. Relative to body weight the pitchers experienced increased throwing arm strength entering the bullpen when wearing the Core Energy Belts compared to when they wore their regular team-issued belts

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

ARE CORE ENERGY BELTS UNIFORM-COMPLIANT?

Core Energy Belts are designed to be compliant with athletic uniforms for many sports, although they may not meet the requirements of all sports. Athletes in a wide range of sports can confidently wear them within uniform regulations.

HOW ARE CORE ENERGY BELTS DIFFERENT FROM OTHER STANDARD BELTS?

Core Energy performance belts utilize the principle of optimizing intra-abdominal pressure (IAP). Our high-performance CoreMesh provides a strong, yet flexible compression to the lower back and core muscles, allowing athletes to execute fast and stabilized movements during the game.

HOW CAN CORE ENERGY BELTS HELP ATHLETES PLAY THE LONG GAME?

Intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) is crucial for athletic performance and injury prevention, acting as a natural powerhouse that stabilizes your core, spine, pelvis and rib cage. The Core Energy Belt elevates this pressure, which can enhances muscle activation, reduces stiffness, resulting in increased confidence in the players body during extended game play.

IS A CORE ENERGY BELT SIMILAR TO A WEIGHTLIFTING BELT?

While both serve the purpose of providing support to the core, a Core Energy Belt is designed specifically for athletic performance, utilizing multiple layers of high-performance CoreMesh to offer a strong yet flexible compression. It is tailored to enhance hitting, throwing, and fast movements during sports activities, whereas a weightlifting exercise belts focuses more on stability during heavy weightlifting exercises.
