Marv Marinovich was an exceptional champion as the team captain
of the undefeated USC football team in 1962. Marv went on to play
professional football for two years and then began his coaching
career, as a high school football coach for five years.
As a college coach, Marv worked with athletes in multiple sports,
assessing, conditioning and training them. With years of coaching
experience under his belt, Marv began his professional coaching
career.
Marv has been in professional sports for many years as an outstanding
multi-sport, professional coach working with five professional teams
consulting, analyzing, conditioning and training professional athletes.
His focus has been player evaluation and performance improvement.
Over the years Marv has trained and assessed over 5000 athletes
including the best athletes in the country.
Marv has spent the past twenty years in private sports performance
research, working with Barry Sears and other top specialists. He
has now teamed up with renowned New York chiropractor Dr. Edythe
Heus who is an expert in applied kinesiology and sports medicine,
to develop Protagonist Sports Technologies.
Edythe Heus has been described as a small, lithe, intensely focused
woman who knows about the muscles of the body the way children know
their ABC's. Perhaps the most striking thing about her is her extensive
knowledge and wisdom, each word though softly spoken, packs a serious
punch.
Edythe Heus graduated with honors from New York Chiropractic College
to become a Dr. of Chiropractic in New York City where she practiced
for fifteen years. During that time she studied and researched exercise
and movement and developed exercise programs to assist patients
in restoration of body balance following injury or misuse. Edythe
work yielded her patients exceptional results making her so in demand
she was unable to take on new patients the last nine years of her
practice.
Edythe was the director of the Sri Chinmoy Ultra Marathon medical
team for six years and the director of New York Marathon 19-mile
chiropractic and massage relief station.
Edythe further developed her skills and experience working on these
teams as she instantly evaluated and treated athletes helping them
achieve peak performance while preventing injury.
As a member of the International College of Applied Kinesiology,
and a diplomat for Body Integration International, Edythe has gained
extensive knowledge and insight to the body's musculo skeletal and
nervous systems and the way the body's systems function together.
This knowledge applied is the foundation for the progressive training
and conditioning program Protagonist Sports Technologies of which
Edythe is the cofounder with Professional Coach and Sports Trainer
Marv Marinovich.
