Every year, 250,000 American kids tear their ACL. We've known for two decades that 64–73% are preventable. We just haven't had the right tool — until now.

The surgery costs $25,000. The recovery takes 12 months. The re-injury rate is 23%. And the mental toll — the missed seasons, the self-doubt, the identity crisis of a young athlete who built their life around a sport and is suddenly sidelined — is immeasurable. That's why I built Everyday Athlete.

I'm Tomas Anthony — a researcher, educator, speaker, and methodology architect based in New York City. Everyday Athlete is the performance system I've spent 25 years building: a science-backed methodology spanning assessment, monitoring, prescription, and program design — deployable for individual athletes, teams, sport organizations, and athletic departments at any scale.

My role is not primarily to train athletes. It is to design the systems, author the methodology, and bring the right resources to bear so that each athlete — or each organization — gets a solution that is precise, scalable, and actually works. When I coach directly, it is at the highest level: a select group of individuals whose profile, goals, and commitment align with the full EA approach.

The EA methodology is built on clinical-grade assessment infrastructure — bilateral force measurement, 3D kinematic analysis, eccentric strength testing, and fatigue-state protocols — connected to Better Athlete, the monitoring platform that captures biomarkers, training load, lifestyle data, and recovery between assessments. Together they create a longitudinal athlete intelligence record that improves every prescription over time.

The target is not a single athlete or a single team. It is the standard: a methodology for how serious athletic development is assessed, prescribed, and measured — applicable across youth, high school, college, and adult athletes, across every sport, at individual and institutional scale.

The Everyday Athlete® Way

What I Believe

Measure Before You Prescribe

Every athletic development decision should begin with objective data. Clinical-grade assessment is not a luxury — it is the minimum standard for serious work with athletes at any level.

The Whole Athlete

Performance is not just what happens in the gym. Biomarkers, sleep, nutrition, academic load, lifestyle — the full picture is what separates a good prescription from a great one. Better Athlete exists because this data matters.

Design to Scale

A methodology that only works when I'm in the room isn't a methodology — it's dependency. Everything EA builds is designed to be implemented by others: coaches, trainers, athletic departments, partner practitioners.

Prepare For Life

The goal of athletic development is not a performance metric. It is a body and mind capable of doing what you love, for as long as you love it — and a system that keeps improving as you grow.

Assessment Coverage

Built For Every Sport

Soccer Surfing Skiing Tennis Basketball Boxing Climbing Golf Running Cycling Swimming General Fitness

EA's assessment framework is built to match the specific demands of each sport — the kinetic chain loads, bilateral force requirements, fatigue responses, and injury risk profiles that differ between a basketball player, a pitcher, and a swimmer. The methodology adapts. The rigor stays constant.
