Renowned Fitness Expert, Bill Parisi, Partners with VKTRY Gear

WILTON, Conn. - Nov. 11, 2016 - PRLog -- VKTRY Gear (www.VKTRYgear.com), makers of the VK Performance Insoles, which help athletes run faster and jump higher, is pleased to announced that sports performance pioneer, Bill Parisi, has joined the Board Advisors.

Parisi, a two-time NCAA Division I All-American in the javelin and Olympic Trials qualifier, is the Founder of Parisi Speed School, which has 95 locations across the United States and collectively has trained more than 650,000 Olympic, professional and young athletes.  Parisi's clients include current NFL Players Josh Norman of the Washington Redskins and Greg Olsen of the Carolina Panthers, as well as Olympians Valerie Fleming and Shauna Rohbock, who won silver in the two-woman Bobsled.

"I have spent the last 24 years training young athletes to be their best," says Parisi, "When I tried VK Insoles for myself, I was immediately sold. You can instantly feel the energy return.  Increasing speed and explosiveness is all about one thing – putting a force into the ground – and that's what VKs do for an athlete.  The philosophy behind the VKs is very simple, really; increase in ground force equals increase in speed."

"We are incredibly honored that Bill has joined Team VKTRY," says VKTRY founder and VK inventor Matt Arciuolo. "Bill has dedicated his life to helping young athletes achieve their athletic potential and that is our mission at VKTRY Gear as well."

Parisi, whose Parisi Speed School was named by Men's Health Magazine's panel of fitness advisors as one of the 10 best gyms in the nation, helped produce three of the top six fastest athletes at the 2006 NFL Combine.  In 2008, the Parisi NFL Combine Program had 14 of its athletes selected by NFL teams, including the number 2 overall draft pick, Chris Long, drafted by the St. Louis Rams.  To date, the Parisi Speed School has graduated more than 130 athletes to the NFL.

"This product is going to be a 'game changer," adds Parisi.  "One of the extraordinary benefits of the VKs that I love is its ability to reduce the chance of injury.  The full-length carbon fiber base provides added support and stability helping athletes stay in the game.  There has never been a product like this, and just like having the appropriate apparel and accessories, VK Insoles are becoming a standard in sports gear."

VKs are currently being used by hundreds of pro and college athletes across multiple sports (NFL, NBA, MLB, etc.)  L.A. Lakers longtime Athletic Trainer Gary Vitti says, "The VK is the best combination of shock absorption and stability that I have ever seen. I have worn a lot of custom orthotics and none have felt as good as VKs."
