EASY, AFFORDABLE AND EFFECTIVE SOLUTION
ZenoLink is a cutting-edge biomechanics analysis and training tool used by athletes of all levels to improve athletic performance – through the power of 3-D! By zeroing in on what’s really happening during an individual’s sports activity, ZenoLink provides athletes, coaches and trainers – primarily in golf, baseball, cycling, lacrosse, hockey, softball, volleyball, tennis and running– an easy and affordable solution that dramatically improves performance and reduces the risk of injury.
Using specialized 3-D Motion Analysis, ZenoLink captures data related to functional movement, and turns it into a digital model of the athlete’s motion, taking the guesswork out of identifying flaws or restrictions in coordination.·
SIMPLE, ACCESSIBLE AND TECHNICALLY POWERFUL: HOW ZENOLINK WORKS
- Step 1: Collect Data. The athlete is filmed in their natural athletic environment, hitting a golf ball or baseball, serving a tennis ball, firing a lacrosse shot. The process is easy – without the use of sensors, wires or a vest.
- Step 2: Data Analysis. The video is made into a 3-D model of the athlete at the ZenoLink performance lab in Endicott, NY. Their biomechanical engineers interpret the movement of the model using specialized software to gather measurements including kinetic linking, joint range of motion, body segment coordination and outcome parameters.
- Step 3: Get Results! ZenoLink provides the athlete with a specialized Progressive Skills Training (PST) program that targets specific areas to help them get dramatic results toward improving their athletic potential and reduce their chances of injury. Athletes, coaches and trainers can access their results on zenolink.com to incorporate the PST program into their current strength and conditioning routines.·
WHY USE ZENOLINK?
Every athlete is different. More than just height, weight, body type, attitude or strength, no two athletes engage the functional movements of their sport the same way. Therefore, ZenoLink knows there is no one-size-fits-all solution to maximizing performance. This sets them apart from other training “experts” who apply generic training solutions or try to solve performance problems through simple observation.
Before the introduction of ZenoLink, advanced functional movement analysis was available only to sports performance researchers and professional athletes in an expensive lab setting. ZenoLink provides athletes of every level with easy and affordable access to PhD-level performance analysis through the power of 3-D.
THE TEAM
Chris Welch has studied and worked with hundreds of athletes, coaches, trainers, sports instructors, and sports medicine practitioners to develop the technological power behind ZenoLink. He started his journey after graduating from Boston University doing research at the American Sports Medicine Institute in 1991 and continued his work at the BioMotion Foundation until he started his own practice in 1995. For the past 15 years, his life’s work as a biomedical engineer has been dedicated to new discoveries in biomechanics, developing the analysis software behind ZenoLink, and advancing the state of the art of clinical biomechanics.
George Bock, longtime friend since their Little League baseball and high school football days, runs the business side of ZenoLink. Together, Chris and George are carrying on a tradition of technological innovation spawned in their hometown of Endicott, NY, birthplace of IBM. George is a graduate and three-year football letterman of Albany State University, and has since specialized in operations, accounting/finance, and information technology during his professional career.
