BaselineAPS is a software platform that uses kinetic data input^{(31,41,61,62,63,64)} from a range of movements (On field or controlled environments) to (a) evaluate the mechanical efficiency of the movement tested, (b) produce results in a comparative scoring system and (c) provides supplemental deep practice programming to target areas of intervention.

Our software BaselineAPS has a strong scientific base in motor learning principles, biomechanics, neuromuscular systems and motor control theory ^{(16,17,18,19,20,31,32,33,38,39,40,41,46,51)} uses proprietary patent pending algorithms (ML) and is matched with years 13 years of high performance athlete data.  Our supportive deep practice programming is also backed by neuromuscular, motor learning and motor control principles ^{(16,17,18,19,26,32,38,40,41,46,49,51,67,68)}  in addition to the principles of adaptation to training ^(67,68). 

• The unique aspect of BaselineAPS is that it provides a profile of your athletes Load Capacity and foundational readiness.  

• We define Load Capacity as:
• Analyzing an athlete's body structure and movement and the capacity for that structure to accommodate training and performance load ^{(12,20,33,37,60,61)}.  Biomechanical, neuromuscular systems, motor learning and motor control principles influence one's load capacity ^{(3,25,26,30,32,33,34,38,40,41,42,46,47,56,62)}. Diminished integration of these systems leads to deleterious movement mechanics and therefore increase the risk for injury potential ^{(17,25,26,33,34,36,38,39,60,61,62,)} and diminish performance economy ^{(12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19 20,21,40)}
• How we evaluate Load Capacity:

• BaselineAPS uses screening modules where the athletes movement is acquired and then categorized relative to deviations from an optimal efficiency ^{(16,19,21,22,38,39,46)} and optimal movement quotient.  The optimal movement quotient is one considered to promote the least risk of injury and highest potential for performance efficiency. ^{(16,17,19,20,21,22,38,39,40,41,42,43)}

Our software uses proprietary patent pending algorithms to convert quantitative and qualitative data to a scale value range.  The closer to optimal movement efficiency the outcome, the closer to the optimal scale value ^{(22,28,29,30,31,38,41,43)}.  Our quantification contributes to 11 Key Mechanical Indicators essentially separating  “signal from noise”.  The outcome produces 11 KMI Quotients which identify strengths and weaknesses in the athletes foundational readiness for movement. ^{(15,16,20,22,29,31,32,33,40,41,42,43,44,45,46,47,48,49,56,61,62)}

• BaselineAPS uses the 11 KMI Quotients to produce the Baseline Quotient, an overall quantified indication of the athletes Load Capacity
• The athlete's Baseline is a measure of foundational readiness. It is a final aggregate quantification of an athlete. This score takes into account other factors outside of kinematic measurements, such as strength, balance, flexibility, joint mobility, age, gender, sport and position: the variables that make each athlete unique. The Baseline Quotient enables you to compare athletes in a cohort, understanding who is improving movement efficiency and those who are presenting more likely as a risk towards injury.
• Everyone has a baseline…what's your team's foundational readiness?

When BaselineAPS looks at the results produced from the software and algorithms, it places the athlete’s current preparedness for sport onto a continuum, ranging from Preparation to Optimization to Performance to skill .  Each athlete may have deep practice and targeted exercises focused in any of the areas of the continuum, and after retests, those exercise focus areas typically change.  The goal is to align the exercise regimen with what the athlete and their Load Capacity can handle, all with an eye towards improving the athlete, while also protecting them.

• Becoming and remaining a high level athlete is an ongoing journey, and it doesn’t stop.  Your body, strength, quickness, agility, and endurance all change and progress throughout your career.  The BaselineAPS programming personalizes where you are, and where you have come from. It progresses you based upon data including your Athlete Classification, and moves you along the continuum of load capacity and movement optimization. The exercise regimen prepares you to be ready for more strength, efficiency, and performance.
