EXOGEN PERFORMANCE BENEFITS

The Benefits of an Exoskeleton

100% IMPROVED PERFORMANCE

EXOGEN PERFORMANCE BENEFITS

An exoskeleton is a specialized, outer layer containing strong, mobile and resistant components that fulfil a number of functional roles

The EXOGEN® (patent pending) technology offers precisely these functions with the following user benefits;

Performance Enhancement

  • Specific speed, agility, power and reaction,
  • Muscular and cardio-vascular endurance,
  • Muscle potentiation,
  • Calorie burning and weight loss
  • Functional ability
  • Body strength and muscle tone

Protection and Support

  • Impact and abrasion protection
  • Lumbar support
  • Injury rehabilitation
  • Joint and soft tissue mechanical support

Sensory feedback

  • Improved movement awareness, skill and technique development
  • Enhanced proprioception
  • Bio-feedback on Heart Rate, energy expenditure and calorie burning, limb and body acceleration / speed / inertia Thermo-regulation

Thermo-regulation

  • Enhanced wicking
  • Improved circulation
  • Optimal evaporative cooling

This is a summary of some of the scientific research that we have undertaken as we have developed EXOGEN®. Please contact us if you are interested in learning more about our research and/or have ideas or interest for future research project areas.

Exogen Performance Benefits

METABOLIC COST & CALORIE BURNING

  • Up to 15% increase in metabolic cost with 3-5% additional loading

SPRINT & SPEED TRAINING

  • Increase vertical ground-reaction force (GRF) by up to 5 % during the acceleration and maximum velocity sprint phases, while not significantly altering sprint kinematics

ATHLETE REHABILITATION

  • Almost full re-balanced of power kinetics and kinematics in ELITE female athlete with acute lower leg fracture
  • INCREASED Horizontal GRF & horizontal power by 27–47 % during sprint start phase
  • INCREASED Peak velocity by 7 % during the Start phase
  • INCREASED Relative vertical GRF by 3 – 4 % during the Acceleration and Vmax phase
  • INCREASED starting peak velocity BY 6% with light loading

CYCLING

  • INCREASED power BY 4 WATTS / kg loading offering cyclists the ability to increase intensity with less impact on cadence, speed and ride time.

LEG POWER & JUMPING

  • +8.5% increase vertical jump (6 WEEKS)
  • +11.5% increase broad jump

OLYMPIC LIFTING

  • +3.7 % increased 1RM max
  • +17.8% improved technique performance

POST ACTIVATION POTENTIATION

  • AGILITY: 1.5% enhanced performance IN 5-0-5 test
  • SPRINT SPEED: 4.9% drop in 60m speed times
  • GOLF: 10-20 meter increase in golf drive distance
  • MARTIAL ARTS: 11% enhanced punch peak acceleration and 10% enhanced punch peak velocity
