FORM MULTIYEAR,
BRONZE-LEVEL PARTNERSHIP U
SA Triathlon recently announced a new Bronze-Level partnership with RPM2
, a manufacturer of computerized
insoles designed to monitor the training elements of running and biking, through September 2017. RPM2
will serve as the
exclusive footbed training partner for the National Governing Body. USA Triathlon annual members, as well as certified coaches and members of certified clubs, will receive a 10 percent discount through the agreement. “Our revolutionary technology is aimed at making athletes
better, stronger and faster,” said CEO and inventor Johnny Ross. “Helping athletes achieve higher performance through bilateral
equivalence is what RPM2 technology provides. Coaches and
trainers already recognize that the more bilaterally equivalent the legs are, the better the athlete will perform. Now there is evaluative data in which to base these judgments.” RPM2
technology specifically measures bilateral leg
equivalence in athletes and examines the gait, range of motion and four-quadrant foot pressure of athletes. It is preset with five range-of-motion exercises, two gait exercises and two pressure exercises. The system also includes four cycling exercises that contain power meter measurements specifically geared for triathletes and speed cycling.

disciplines, mental aspects of competing, racing options for youth and juniors, as well as a glossary of terms, training logs and diagrams among other items. The Youth Guide can be found at
