Research Resources for Coaches, Media, and Facilities.
Copy-ready citations, study summaries, machine-readable results, a research-literacy guide, and claim guardrails—built so the evidence can travel without losing its context.
Use the Evidence Without Stripping the Limits.
Each resource is designed for a different use case. The coach guide teaches interpretation. The evidence brief summarizes the portfolio. The media fact sheet supplies verified language, numbers, and prohibited shortcuts. The claims quick guide turns those boundaries into a two-page publication preflight.
How to Read Research Like a Coach
An eight-question reading framework covering p-values, practical significance, Hedges’ g, study design, raw outcomes, null findings, and transfer limits.

| Portfolio | “Backed by three peer-reviewed university-affiliated studies.” | “Three independent studies” unless formally substantiated. |
| Four-week strength | “The Launch Pad group improved 18.4 kg versus 11.1 kg, a 7.3 kg advantage under the supervised program.” | “Everyone gains 66% more strength.” |
| Eight-week outcomes | “All three between-group outcomes favored The Launch Pad group at p < .001.” | “Proven to improve every performance outcome.” |
| Effect size | “Hedges’ g values showed exceptionally large standardized group separation.” | “Four times more effective.” |
| Acute study | “Activation, velocity, and ROM were significantly greater under the tested condition.” | “Clinically proven shoulder protection.” |
| Joint Ops™ | “Integrated expression of the human-centric design thesis, with research in development.” | Applying Launch Pad findings directly to Joint Ops™. |
Need a Coach Briefing, Media Source, or Facility Evidence Pack?
Use one request pathway for interviews, study questions, coach education, facility review, military or tactical evaluation, dealer materials, and research collaboration.
Verify names, affiliations, study dates, patent language, product claims, and any endorsement wording against the latest approved research and legal records. Never remove the null power result or convert group averages into individual promises.
