Six1Five Sports Training
"Output has allowed us to really challenge our athletes!”
About Six1Five Sports Training
“Output gave us the flexibility to use their units in our speed classes, but also in our strength classes."
Based in Middle Tennessee, Six1Five Sports Training was created by former Division 1 Strength and Conditioning Coach Kevin Fitzgerald. Coach Fitz has over 25 years of strength and speed training experience at elite colleges including Florida State University, University of Notre Dame, and Vanderbilt University. Fitz and his staff specialize in speed and strength training for athletes of all ages along with fitness for the general population.
Six1Five has helped almost 100 athletes achieve their goal of playing their sport at 45 different colleges and professional organizations.
Benefits in Speed Training
“We're able to show the athletes how high they jump, how explosive they are, what their ground contact time is.”
For Coach Fitz, Output Sports is hugely beneficial in his speed classes with the range of metrics he’s able to track and feels he can “really teach them why speed is so fundamentally important in their sport." Post set metrics on the App and Hub allows coaches to instantly visualize key trends and compare set Vs. set and athlete Vs. athlete. Share key KPIs with athletes, coaches and stakeholders with one-click dynamic reporting.
Benefits in Strength Training
"With strength, we train our athletes to be as explosive as possible. If we are explosive, we will become stronger but we cannot sacrifice strength for speed.”
Coach Fitz values that Output can monitor VBT zones as it “allows us to monitor their bar speed and show them when they're being explosive and staying in the power zone or when they have too much weight and they're pushing the bar slow."
Our App provides instant auditory and visual feedback to athletes about the velocity of their reps, promoting significant performance improvements. Receiving feedback based on the velocity of each repetition completed may aid performance by aiding in maintaining an external focus. This means focusing on movement outcomes rather than the internal mechanics of the movement. This external focus can enhance motivation, which is highly important for long-term training success.
LTAD & Training Different Age Groups
“This is huge for younger athletes and for more advanced athletes!”
Coach Fitz highlights the relevance of Output Sports for younger athletes: "this is huge for younger athletes to be able to see what their bar speed is to understand the importance of being explosive and when they are being explosive." He also mentions the value for more advanced athletes: "I love it with our more advanced athletes because that gives them a challenge every single lift, every single rep, to be able to be perfect."
Support and Customer Service
“The team over at Output Sports has been so helpful.”
Coach Fitz praises Output Sports' support, “especially when we first began to integrate our program into their system. If I ever have any questions or a problem I can just contact them and they're very quick at getting you a response and helping you with your needs."
