Progressive Skills Training™ otherwise known as PST™
PST stands for progressive skills training. PST blends aspects of traditional strength training, functional training and motor skill development into one program focused entirely on developing movement pattern and coordination specific to performance enhancement and injury reduction for a given activity.
Based on the kinematic/kinetic data provided by the 3-D zenoLINK assessment/evaluation of a given activity (ie. Throwing, hitting, etc.) a PST program is developed to improve coordination and biomechanics in an effort to optimize performance/reduce energy. Not just looking to improve strength, flexibility or speed a PST program focuses on improving the coordination/biomechanics to maximize strength, flexibility and speed.
Since 1995, we have been leveraging biomechanics and the data it provides to develop PST™ and its related functionally specific training programs. Generic training programs don't work for everyone and can't provide relavent large improvement gains. PST™ exists today only because of zenoLINK™ and the biomechanics information it provides. Without it, PST™ would become just another Generic training program.
PST™ considers generic strength, speed & flexibility training programs and anatomically based functional strength, speed & flexibility programs, i.e. SPARQ, TPI etc. PST™ then takes those concepts further to build an individual program around your specific biomechanical limitations and deficiencies and taking into consideration HOW you perform your activity. This combination insures that generic and functional strength are coordinated into improved biomechanical outputs.
Small performance gains can be created by generic speed or strength enhancements. Large performance gains are made through focusing gains in strength and \ speed into better movement patterns using PST™.
