1. Buchberger-12®

3. ALINE Orthotics

1) Buchberger-12®
The Buchberger-12® is a series of twelve exercises designed to strengthen the rotator cuff and scapular (shoulder blade) stabilizing muscles of the shoulder. These exercises prepare and protect the shoulder girdle for the extreme stresses of overhand sports (baseball, softball, swimming, volleyball, tennis, water polo, etc.)

The program provides a series of progressive challenges to the shoulder muscles without over training. There are twelve exercises performed over two days. Six exercises on the first day and a different six exercises on the second day. The cycle is then repeated. Dividing the program into a two-day cycle maintains the challenge while making the program manageable for almost everyone. Because of the change in challenge day to day recovery is built into the program.

3) ALINE Orthotics
Your feet are the foundation of sports performance, propelling and directing the powerful muscles of your lower body. ALINE's Bilateral Foot Alignment Suspension Technology (BFAST) ensures the precise alignment of your feet in relation to the rest of your body, and supports your foot through its complete range of motion, maximizing energy transfer from your feet to your lower body for extreme sports power.

Bilateral Foot Alignment Suspension Technology (BFAST) ALINE's patented triangular suspension system allows the tuberosity of the 5th metatarsal to lower, reducing forced early pronation and allowing the natural formation of the transverse arch. Adjoining support and suspension zones allow your leg shaft to align and guide your foot through all phases of motion.

The ALINE system can be custom fit to your unique foot structure and body stance to reveal your personal power position and intensify your natural energy and ability.
