Sam Miller - Proteus Motion: Reinventing Resistance Training
Sam Miller is the Founder and CEO of Proteus Motion. Proteus Motion’s patented technology is the only way to measure strength and power for every movement humans can perform. To date, it has only been possible to measure physical strength and power for movements in a straight line, like a squat or a bench press. However, less than 5% of human movement is in a straight line. Proteus Motion’s patented technology measures strength and power for 100% of human movements, creating an entirely new standard for personalized fitness and physical rehabilitation. Strength is the ability to move against resistance. To measure strength accurately, that resistance must not change. But unless you are moving in a straight line, the resistance from existing equipment like cables and free weights changes unpredictably throughout each movement. The only way to overcome this is through constant resistance, no matter what direction you move. Proteus Motion solved this by inventing 3D Resistance™. By providing constant resistance in all directions, 3D Resistance™ is the first-ever way to accurately measure strength and power for every movement humans can perform.
