With his eastern European background and education, Dr. Mackala’s influence and innovative approach analyzed some of the finest details regarding strength training for sports. The first Smart Strength program began as a collaboration between Chris Morton and Dr. Kzrystoff Mackala to equip athletes to be their best on the field and prevent injury. As part of their 8-year collaboration, Chris Morton and Dr. Mackala experimented and eventually solidified the roots of one of the most effective and thorough strength training approaches available to athletes today. Likening the body to a chain, EFS Smart Strength targets and almost always eliminates an athletes weak links. Built right into the human body is the power to heal itself from all kinds of injuries and chronic pain. Unlocking that potential is what EFS Smart Strength does.
