About this ebook
“Exo-kinetic” implies that energy is to be produced by the athlete and externalized by accelerating a sport implement to a high level of kinetic energy. Exo-kinetics provides an answer to the question: What approaches to technique and training allow the athlete to launch a sports implement (or opponent) to the greatest possible result?

I am a lifelong athlete, an accomplished Olympic Weightlifter and a Mechanical Engineer by profession. With this background, I have the unique point of view where the human body becomes a complex, dynamic machine. The focus of this combination of course, is to identify how the best athletic performances can be created.
