Performing At A Peak Level

How would you like to be performing at a peak level at every game and score more victories over the lifespan than any other athlete in the history of the sport??

It seems like a paradox, but there is this idea that the physical capabilities of athletes cannot progress indefinitely, and that sport performance reached a state of stagnation. By contrast, in some sports, competitors are faster than they have ever been.?Take Léon Marchand for example, the first swimmer going below 3:30 minutes in 400 Individual Medley at NCAA Championship, recording 26 wins from 26 individual races since September 2022.?

As a CEO of RaceEdge, Inc. for 5 years, and an athlete, I enjoy working alongside top class performers including spacial forces, sprint swimmers and Formula 1 racing drivers, constantly striving to set a new bar once believed to be unattainable.?

The thing I come across the most is that when the best performers were compared to their nearest rivals, their physical traits gave them a little advantage over their competitors. Contrary to popular belief, the superior athletes are not always the most athletic ones.?

No question, their genetics and immeasurable physical abilities allow them to start off at much higher speed and performance level quicker, but to win at the highest level, over and over again, they need to be able to read the game and predict the actions of their opponents.?

There are many other reasons why athletes can get faster and mark new world records. Most of them point to the strategies and techniques for executing in a complex and unpredictable environments that are void of any specific context.?

But there is one more component involved in the highest performance recorded, which is where RaceEdge, Inc. has been leading the way. And the results have been incredible. The missing piece of the puzzle is the ability to dictate the outcome of the game. ?

It is clear, that random events have an impact on the performance of an individual and their personal records. Experiencing this type of relationship in action made me see that this spectacular ability does not necessarily stem from an innate predisposition, nor always evolve by experience, but mastering it is what ultimately separates the good from the best in the sport.?

This is why I thought it would be interesting to use it to profile the best prospective athletes for sport organizations and teams. I believe it would spur new levels in elite performance and increase the value for fans and sponsors.

And that is a win-win-win scenario.

This is one of the most exciting months for me. We have so much happening in May as RaceEdge unveils a number of new products and initiatives. Especially UNTAMED is being so well received by the team, our stakeholders and others that make up RaceEdge family.

Last week, I launched a book called Race Edge: Making Great Competitors Greater about our mission, how we are bringing out the best in competitors and in the game, and if you read the book, you know there are opportunities for big performance improvements in areas that are less obvious. It will be interesting to see whether tapping into their power breaks through time limits that many would have deemed unbeatable.
