Powering research across elite sports

We collaborate with elite sports organizations to advance applied research in musculoskeletal health, training adaptation, and performance monitoring.

Hamstring Injury Study

Developing a muscle-based index to evaluate asymmetries and monitor hamstring adaptations in elite football athletes.

Pitcher Database Study

Analyzing muscle morphology and mechanics to understand throwing-related adaptations and support recovery strategies.

Coming soon

Muscle-Tendon Dynamics

Exploring the relationship between muscle-tendon structure and movement efficiency in professional basketball players.

We have found Springbok's muscle and musculoskeletal analysis to be an extremely valuable tool for managing injuries and returning athletes to play, individualizing training to help our athletes perform their best, and helping support overall athlete care and durability.

Medical Director Toronto Blue Jays

Springbok Analytics provides our performance healthcare team with insights that we can immediately integrate into our player development programs. Springbok allows us to identify areas of opportunity for athlete development, injury prevention, and wellness that we may not have been able to unlock in the past.

Barnett Frank

Utah Jazz
Director of Sports Performance

We have a strong commitment to advancing the science of athlete care and performance at Wisconsin. By incorporating metrics obtained from a Springbok scan with our robust biomechanical and physiological testing, we hope to better understand how muscle and tendon morphology and potential asymmetries influence an athlete's performance.
