Measure growth and adapt training programs for young athletes
Hylyght redefines the way you track the physical growth and maturation of young athletes.
Young athletes mature at different speeds during puberty. By tracking their growth you can reduce growth related injuries and adapt training programs based on maturity status.
During growth spurt, injuries to the growth plate and tendons are common - like Sever’s, Osgood-Schlatters, and ACL/MCL for female athletes. Reducing load and focussing on appropriate training content that corresponds to the developmental status has been shown to reduce injury rates.
Prof. Sean Cumming explains the science behind growth related injuries and shows how to avoid them.
The Growth Tracker lets us tailor training to each athlete's needs, keeping them injury-free and maximizing their potential. It's a crucial step in retaining young talents and setting a new standard in athlete development.
