Technology advances have made training and athletes bigger, stronger, and stronger. On Episode 56 of the World Wrestling Resource Podcast, we talk with John Lally, the President and CEO of PIVOT Sports Global about Firstbeat, a product geared at providing elite athletes and teams the ability to understand their workouts and performance by data-driven analytics.

Firstbeat is already being used by over 800 professional sports teams around the world and has started to move into college wrestling with three college clients -- Princeton, Penn State and the University of the Cumberlands.

Lally explains the key components athletes and sports science professionals will see from using Firstbeat and we'll tie it all together with how wrestling can help Firstbeat and how Firstbeat can help wrestling programs.

If you're interested in finding out more about Firstbeat, check out Firstbeat.com or contact John directly at [email protected] or at 310-259-2277.
