Important

The Football Safety Academy is committed to improving the great game of football by developing techniques to diminish the negative impacts of head contact.
Learn how the “Hulk Up Technique” utilizes a shoulder shrugging motion which allows the neck’s stronger extension muscles to stabilize the head thereby enabling the head, neck, shoulders and upper back to act as a solid single unit during football impact thus functioning simultaneously not as separate individual units by Dr. Donald Chu PhD, PT, ATC, CSCS, Sports Performance and Sports Medicine Specialist.

DISCLAIMER

The Football Safety Academy acknowledges the coach has the responsibility to decide which football techniques should be taught for the well being and safety of his players and there is not one specific technique including the Hulk Shrug Technique or safety device that can completely eliminate the risk of injury from impacts related to football including catastrophic injury and death. To the knowledge of the Football Safety Academy no specific research has been done regarding the Hulk Shrug Technique, however the Football Safety Academy is actively pursuing this goal.
