Tri-Planar Performance

PRI experienced strength coaches, Gibbie & Zach Duval, recently unveiled a new consulting company dedicated to helping other strength coaches and fitness professionals around the nation learn how to integrate the basic principles of postural restoration into strength and conditioning programs.  Gibbie and Zach are dedicated to helping coaches better understand the science of PRI.  Gibbie Duval, Director of Athletic Performance at the Xplosive Edge in Omaha, Nebraska has attended numerous PRI courses and has been speaking and integrating around the nation.  Zach Duval, now Head Strength Coach at the University of Buffalo has also attended many PRI courses over the years.  Gibbie and Zach hold several certification in the realm of strength and conditioning, but it is their passion for PRI and the integration that makes their programs unique.

“We are dedicated to helping athletes become more neutral across the pelvic floor and rib cage. We understand the need for strength and conditioning programs that address the body as being asymmetrical and we are passionate about understanding polyarticular chains as they relate to patterns and performance. Tri-Planar performance is a unique company which is dedicated to consulting with the strength coach. Being in the world of strength and conditioning, it is very competitive.  Coaches are looking for results, better training modules, and injury prevention programs.  The integration of PRI concepts into the weight room not only decreases injuries significantly, but it enables the athletes to become more powerful and productive. Coaches would benefit from better understanding the unique support system that the Postural Restoration Institute represents.  It was at the courses when we really began to think differently about the way we train athletes and the responsibility it put on us to address patterns, chains, extension vs. flexion and the almighty diaphragm.” - Gibbie Duval

Both Gibbie and Zach will be urging coaches to sign up for the basic PRI courses.  For more information about Tri-Planar Performance, or to set up a consultation, please call Gibbie Duval at 402.880.5047 or email
