Dynamic Arm Support: The Founders Behind Kinetic Arm

The Dynamic Arm Support Story: The Duo Behind Kinetic Arm

When Performance Meets Purpose

Every breakthrough in sports performance starts with a problem.

In baseball — and every throwing or swinging sport — repetitive arm stress is unavoidable. Pitch after pitch. Swing after swing. Serve after serve. Over time, that stress accumulates across the shoulder and elbow connection — the kinetic chain that powers high-performance movement.

Traditional options fell short.

Compression sleeves offered passive squeeze.
Braces restricted motion.
Tape was temporary and inconsistent.

None addressed the real issue: dynamic arm stress during movement.

That gap is where Kinetic Arm was born — not as a brace. Not as compression. But as the world’s first dynamic arm support system designed to stabilize both the shoulder and elbow simultaneously without restricting performance.

And behind it stands a partnership built on resilience, biomechanics, and belief.


From Setback to Science: Jason Colleran’s Turning Point

Before Kinetic Arm became a vision, it was a question.

Former baseball player Jason Colleran experienced years of cumulative arm stress throughout his playing career. Like many athletes, he pushed through it — because that’s what competitors do.

But when his career ended abruptly after a severe lower-body injury rooted in compensation patterns, something became clear:

The arm doesn’t operate in isolation.
The shoulder and elbow are interconnected.
When one joint is overstressed, the entire kinetic chain adapts.

That realization launched a 20+ year deep dive into biomechanics, resistance mechanics, and neuromuscular activation.

Jason went on to:

  • Opened Elite Edge training facility in Atlanta in 2010

  • Consulted and trained elite athletes across MLB, NFL, NBA, UFC, and ATP

  • Mastery-level training in resistance mechanics, biomechanics, Muscle Activation Techniques, and neuromuscular science. Trusted consultant to elite athletes, coaches, strength professionals, and medical teams—specializing in kinetic chain evaluation, neuromuscular assessment, and dynamic joint stress analysis.

  • Yet one persistent question remained:

“There is protective gear for every part of the body. Why is there nothing for the throwing arm — the one thing an athlete cannot play without?”
— Jason Colleran

Why wasn’t there a dynamic arm stabilizer that supported both the shoulder and elbow during high-stress movement — without altering mechanics?

So he built it.

The Business Vision: Enter Saechelle Colleran

Every category-defining innovation needs more than engineering.

It needs vision.

When Jason shared his early prototype with Saechelle — an accomplished entrepreneur with experience in pharmaceutical and medical device sales — she immediately recognized something bigger.

This wasn’t another sleeve.
It wasn’t a traditional brace.
It wasn’t incremental improvement.

It was something that had never been done before — and the early biomechanical data Jason was collecting showed it was working.

Her response was immediate:

Protect the idea. Build the brand. Bring it to market.

“This is going to help so many people.”

She began helping him develop the brand architecture, positioning, and messaging — pushing Kinetic Arm into trade shows and building credibility in baseball from the ground up.

In 2021, Saechelle sold her paramedical tattoo business, Look Natural, and joined Kinetic Arm full-time as Head of Marketing. Together, they scaled the company across throwing and swinging sports nationwide and internationally — establishing Kinetic Arm as a recognized performance support brand.

Together, they became the dynamic duo behind the world’s first dynamic arm stabilizer.


What Makes Kinetic Arm Different?

Kinetic Arm is not a typical arm brace or traditional compression sleeve.

It is a dynamic arm support system engineered to stabilize both the shoulder and elbow simultaneously — helping offload stress externally without restricting motion.

This distinction matters.

Most legacy products isolate one joint. Kinetic Arm supports the system.



Why Dual-Joint Arm Support Matters

Throwing and swinging generate force from the ground up.

Energy transfers through: Lower Body → Core → Shoulder → Elbow → Hand

If the shoulder lacks support, elbow stress increases.
If the elbow fatigues, mechanics shift upstream.

Traditional single-joint solutions ignore this kinetic chain reality.

Kinetic Arm delivers dual-joint arm support, meaning it supports the shoulder and elbow together during high-demand movement.

This integrated approach helps:

  • Reduce dynamic arm stress

  • Support optimized mechanics

  • Maintain natural motion patterns

  • Enhance movement efficiency

MuscleWeb® Technology: The Innovation Behind the Dynamic Arm Stabilizer

At the core of Kinetic Arm is multi-patented MuscleWeb® technology.

Unlike static compression, MuscleWeb®:

  • Activates during movement

  • Provides directional load-sharing

  • Supports high-stress phases

  • Remains non-restrictive

It is movement-responsive stabilization, not immobilization.

The result is a dynamic arm stabilizer that works with your arm — not against it.


Scientific Validation & Professional Recognition

Kinetic Arm has undergone independent biomechanics testing demonstrating:

  • Measurable reductions in elbow torque

  • Measurable reductions in elbow and shoulder distraction forces

  • No restriction of range of motion

Beyond lab validation, respected sports medicine professionals have shared their perspectives:


Dr. Lawrence Lemak

Co-Founder of American Sports Medicine Institute & The National Center for Sports Safety

“The data shows that the Kinetic Arm could definitely have an impact in reducing overuse injuries. The Kinetic Arm definitely shows promising uses for not only rehab professionals but also for performance coaches. I foresee that this prototype can usher in a new era of health and performance for throwing and swinging athletes.”


Dr. Ryan Balmes

Board Certified Clinical Specialist in Orthopedics and Sports Physical Therapy

“The Kinetic Arm has been instrumental in my rehab protocol for Ulnar Collateral Ligament reconstructions. We have also had great success in unloading our pitchers — it’s a new frontier!”


Dr. Rick Lehman, MD

Orthopedic Surgeon & Medical Director of Webster Surgery Center & U.S. Center for Sports Medicine"

Dr. Rick Lehman, MD — Orthopedic Surgeon and Medical Director of Webster Surgery Center & U.S. Center for Sports Medicine — has recognized the value of a non-restrictive, biomechanics-based dynamic arm support system designed to complement high-performance movement and workload management. He was featured in Inside Pitch Magazine in the article “Why Wait,” where he discussed the evolving role of proactive arm support solutions like Kinetic Arm in modern throwing development.


These testimonies reflect professional recognition of dynamic arm support as an emerging category in performance biomechanics.
