“The Interactive metronome is the hottest piece of workout equipment on the (PGA) tour.” Scott Riehl, head strength and conditioning specialist for the PGA tour reported that players Vijay Singh and Glen Day trained on the IM and produced an IM score of less than 15 milliseconds, “which is a strong indicator of how good a golfer’s timing has to be.”

Tim Keown, ESPN Senior Staff Reporter reinforces the importance of mental training in his article entitled "Speed Freaks."

How does IM help Athletes?
IM improves both coordination and timing, and teaches an athlete's mind how to get into and stay “in the zone”, shut out distractions and stay focused in the game. This means better performance and judgment with fewer mistakes and penalties.

That’s why the Miami Dolphins, Notre Dame, Syracuse, Miami Heat and St. Thomas HS use the IM. Batters have less than ½ second after a pitcher releases the ball to figure out what kind of pitch is coming, where it will be when it gets to them, whether to swing or not, and what part of the field to hit it to.

Timing and rhythm make the difference between a good hit and striking out. Golfers are even more dependent on micro-timing and rhythm for the accuracy of their game. IM training can improve accuracy for average golfers by over 20% and expert players, including PGA Pros, by as much as 35%. Huge gains are also seen in soccer, tennis, basketball, and lacrosse.
