A MANAV RACHNA C E N T R E

FOR HIGH PERFORMANCE

1
Manav Rachna carries forward the mantle of excellence and
professionalism with the philosophy of Manav Rachna “Vidyan-
tariksha”. This is a conjugation of the words vidya and antariksha.
Vidya means knowledge, information, the basis of creativity and
innovation. It is the foundation of technology and envisages the future.
Antariksha means ‘the sky’, the space to which we belong or exist. It
can be broken into antar and ikshan which means inner vision. Hence
the combination, the core promise of Manav Rachna becomes

“The reality of inner vision or root of all knowledge”.

M A N AV R ACH NA S PORTS S CI ENCE CENTER
Our is committed to help talented athletes optimising their performance
through utilization of science, performance testing and monitoring, applied
research and education. By integrating the demand of high performance
sports.
Our sport sciencecentre prepares the athlete for a successful sports ca-
reer. Using highly sophisticated technology for analysing posture, balance,
proprioception, coordination activities with biofeedback that constantly
measuring their performance and also helps in reducing the risk of injuries.
SENSORY CARDIO
STRENGTH
MOTOR
It almost seems that over the past thirty years, the fitness industry completely forgot about a
key area, Sensory motor exercise. The Eighties and Nineties saw the explosion of cardio and
isotonic exercise in the gym, the Noughties confirmed the presence of postural and Sen-
sory motor training in the fields of rehabilitation and science. Now the three activities have
been integrated for a more complete and holistic exercise by TecnoBody in their equipments.
Tecnobody designs machinery, electronics, software and clinical
protocols. Everything is 100% Made in Italy with that true Italian ethos
whereby technology and aesthetic sense come together to create
unique, perfect products that are recognised and appreciated all
around the world. Located in front of each system of Tecnobody is
the 3D camera which is able to “scan” the patient. The electronic
processing allows the real-time reconstruction of every single move-
ment of the patient. Each client is unique and each client has their
own program, so Tecnobody provides each client a unique Tec-
noBody Key. Upon insertion into any TecnoBody device, the system
recognizes the client and automatically programs the guided training.
TecnoBody Key contains not only client’s training programs, but also
their assessment statistics: force, balance, stability, flexibility, etc. for the
patient to follow professionally in all its rehabilitation phases.

TecnoBody Equipments at Manav Rachna Sports Science Centre
The Pro-Kin line Systems represent the excellence of bipedal proprioceptive stabilometric assessment. It has the ability
to perform both static and dynamic assessments and training with up to 20 different levels of instability. It is an ideal for a
very gradual bipodalic proprioceptive training. Based on the assessment of static and dynamic balance, training can be
planned and can be executed with biofeedback on the screen to improve both static and dynamic balance depending
on the need of the athlete. After an evaluation phase, the software proposes automatically a series of rehabilitative paths
designed to improve the perceptual conditions of each individual movement.
The platform of the Balance Trunk System is a very sensitive multi-axial platform able to detect the movements of the
pelvis in anterior-posterior direction and Right-Left. The stability of the system is adjustable by the operator in relation to the
proprioceptive ability of the patient. There are two main assessment modules: the Circular proprioceptive Rating (clockwise
and anti-clockwise) and the evaluation of the Range of Motion. Both assessments are critical to fully understand the motor skills
of the subject, especially in the pelvic area. Pelvic tilts and mobity without moving trunk or maintain trunk balance is assessed.
The Postural Bench System is equipped with two tilting flat surfaces (head and trunk surface A and lower limbs
surface B) which pivot on the dock. The bench helps to assess the symmetry of the posterior chain in three fundamental points:
scapular-thoracic area, lower back, hamstring area and different parameters like different weight bearing areas are detected.
The assessment Module of the Postural Bench system allows to monitor, in real time, the symmetry of the posterior chain in three
fundamental points: scapular-thoracic area, lower back, hamstring area. At the end of the test, the report presents the symmetry
between right and left sides, in which shows in the percentage terms and the force that developed from the posterior chain.
IsoShift Versatility
Iso-Shift is an open and flexible system. Equipped with back anchors for the resistive and functional arm exercises. The
Personal Trainer or Physiotherapist will have a powerful communication tool available to them, where tricky concepts such
as posture and load control can be easily explained and practically demonstrated. Today operators have a new ally
that will only enhance their Professional Performance.
20
Iso Move: Perfect Control is necessary to guarantee a perfect movement. Iso Move is equipped with both the elements.
A couple motor able to provide 450 N/m and an electronic control with sampling frequency to 1250 Hz. The balance of
these two elements allows a fluid, linear and precise movement. An isokinetic device born principally for two motivations:
accelerate and refine the rehabilitative intervention and, during the evaluative phase, quantify the developed force.
The Base of support of Iso Lift System is a sensorized platform with four load cells which can detect in real time the
distribution of loads to the ground of the patient. The top of the stand with screen printing allows to separate the Right-Left
and Anterior-Posterior in a clear and intuitive way for a correct evaluation of the position of the centre of the patient’s
pressure both static and dynamic phase. The systems of Functional Line are equipped with specific modules for the
functional evaluation. The aim is to verify the patient reaction to “over -load” conditions in common activities like push ups leg,
abductions shoulders, squats etc. In addition, the 3D camera allows to read all body segments in real time and to measure
up the dynamic range of motion. Equipped with an extremely powerful postural module that offers a range of certified testing
for both static and dynamic orthostatic control.
Walker-View is the only treadmill with an embedded PC platform that monitors and records step length, step speed, step
symmetry, range of motion of hips, knees and ankles. All these function create a unique system for a complete and usable Gait
Analysis and Running Analysis. With Walker View one can immerse the patients in virtual environments and give them real-time
feedback of control both of postural type and in symmetry of the footing on the soil. Virtual environments allow one to emotion-
ally involve the patient and make her/him an active part in the rehabilitation process. The stimuli can be modified in relation
to the patient’s perceptive ability in terms of speed and/or combinations of movements (jump an obstacle, taking objects by
the upper limbs, etc.)
Iso Free Versatility is an open and flexible system. Exercises that are weight-free, require small equipment or with
barbell can be performed on this machine. Concepts such as posture and load control can be easily explained and
practically demonstrated. It has a new ally that will enhance athlete professional performance.
