Ultimate Speed uses the High Speed Treadmill, Pro Multi-Hip machine, Plyo Press and Pro Implosion machine. This science-based, proprietary equipment is designed to train our athletes to greater speed, power, agility and overall performance.
 

When using the High Speed Treadmill, you’ll notice that the motor is positioned below the belt, so it doesn’t interfere with your view of your feet in motion. This provides instant visual feedback of your running form. You and your trainer can see what your feet are doing, how they’re landing and taking off. The High Speed Treadmill allows for manipulation of the two most important components of running speed, stride length and stride frequency. The High Speed Treadmill has the mechanical ability to adjust both speed (1mph to 28mph) and elevation (0° to 40°), while providing consistent belt velocity for the imitation of "land" running on a cushioned landing surface.
 

The Pro Multi-Hip machine improves the strength of key muscles of the abdominals and hips, important but often-overlooked muscles that are essential for improved sports performance.
 
It accommodates athletes from 5-foot to 7-foot tall, and resistance can be set from less than 15 pounds for lateral movement patterns, to 375 pounds for dynamic power movements.  

The Plyo Press allows you to train for explosive power below and above body weight, using an exclusive loading pattern that minimizes stress on your joints and back while maximizing explosive performance. You safely build leg strength and speed.
 
The Pro Implosion machine trains the upper body in natural, curvilinear paths of motion that better simulate the striking and press motions of sport.
 
Our programs are based on the research of how the body responds to training stress—neurologically, metabolically and biomechanically—so that you can become a more efficient athlete with a reduced risk of injury.

 
Just one Acceleration Training program, comprised of 22 – 26 sessions spread over six to eight weeks, provides measurable improvement in sprint speed, multi-directional speed for faster mid-field or mid-court cuts, explosive power, dynamic stability and active recovery. Our trained athletes are able to play at game speed for a longer time than other athletes.

 
The High Speed Treadmill improves an athlete's running mechanics—knee drive, foot and hip position, leg extension and symmetry. Scientific research shows that incline treadmill running recruits the muscles responsible for forward acceleration at a level two to three times higher than level running at the same stride frequency, which helps you produce more power during each stride, during both push-off and recovery. We know how to test the capacity of your key muscle groups and how that affects your speed and power. And we take you safely just beyond your limits to improve your over-ground speed.

 
In our optimal training environment—a potent combination of our equipment coupled with properly placed mirrors, video feedback and our qualified trainers—you’ll find that you quickly progress beyond all your preconceived notions about your abilities and limitations. Individualized training administered in small groups of four to six athletes fosters a personal program with competitive support.

 
The qualified staff of Ultimate Speed, Inc. offers the latest speed-specific and sport-specific training applications to athletes (novice, amateur, professional) of all ages and all sports.
