Northeastern athletics promotes health and wellness with OptoJump

  
  
  


It's a long one! But you can watch the interview in sections if you go to our YouTube page. Listen to Art Horne, the Director of Sports Performance at Northeastern University, and Dan Boothby, the programs head Strength and Conditioning coach discuss what they are doing to break down the walls between sports performance and sports medicine with the athletic program at the university.

They hope to track athletic development accurately better than they have been, and they believe that using OptoJump is going to help them do that. Using contact times as a key indicator through some simple tests has become a strong tool for them in recognizing weak areas or even injury proned issues that are otherwise un-detectable.

The athletic department will be outlining its own testing parameters to increase the fidelity of the feedback they receive from the technology, also improving their results when addressing some of the athletes habits to improve overall wellness.
