CombatStrips Releases 6-Month Performance Study Results
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
San Diego, CA - January 18, 2024 - CombatStrips today released results from its comprehensive 6-month performance study conducted with 50 competitive combat athletes.
Study Overview
The study, conducted from June to December 2023, tracked performance metrics of athletes using CombatStrips during training and competition:
- 50 athletes (BJJ, MMA, Wrestling)
- Purple belt to black belt/professional level
- 5,000+ total training hours monitored
- 200+ competition matches analyzed
Key Findings
The results exceeded initial projections:
- 31% average increase in oxygen intake vs. baseline
- 18% improvement in endurance metrics (time to exhaustion)
- 23% reduction in recovery time between high-intensity rounds
- 94% athlete satisfaction rate
- 99.8% adhesion success rate (strips stayed in place)
Scientific Validation
"These results are significant," said Dr. Jennifer Park, sports physiologist who oversaw the testing protocol. "A 31% increase in oxygen intake during maximal exertion translates directly to performance advantages. This isn't marginal—it's game-changing for serious athletes."
The study used standardized testing protocols including:
- Oxygen saturation monitoring
- Time-to-exhaustion tests
- Heart rate variability analysis
- Subjective performance reporting
Real-World Competition Validation
Beyond laboratory metrics, the study tracked competition results:
- Athletes reported feeling "significantly less fatigued" in later matches
- Multiple athletes attributed medal performances to improved cardio
- Zero product failures during competition use
"I medaled at Pans in my division," said study participant Sarah Martinez. "Third match of the day, overtime period, and I still had gas. My opponent didn't. CombatStrips made the difference."
Publication and Transparency
Full study methodology and results will be available on the CombatStrips website. The company is committed to transparent, data-driven product claims.
"We built CombatStrips for serious athletes who demand proof," said Mike Rodriguez, CEO. "These numbers speak for themselves."
