BIOMECHANICS
BIOMECHANICS APPLIED TO THE HUMAN BODY
Biomechanics is the science that studies human movement in order to optimize it, making physical exercise not only more enjoyable, but also healthy and free from injury risks. The idea of applying this science has enabled FLOKY to create revolutionary and innovative products capable of acting on performance and health with added value: making those who wear them feel good.
BIOMECHANICS
THE SEARCH FOR WELL-BEING AND PERFORMANCE
Acting on biomechanical principles means acting on the body's health and athletic performance. Thanks to the development of innovative screen-printing techniques, conceived on the principles of biomechanics, FLOKY has created revolutionary products for the world of sports that promote improved performance and ensure injury prevention during physical activity, bringing well-being and performance to those who practice it.

A CONSOLIDATED SCIENTIFIC APPROACH
The technical and scientific consultant for FLOKY is Dr. Mauro Testa, an international reference point for 30 years in the study of ergonomics, posture and biomechanical science.
With 330 active patents, Dr. Testa has always believed in research as a vehicle for innovation. Since 1994, he has been collaborating in the world of sport to contribute to continuous improvement in the various disciplines through the application of biomechanical principles in protection, flooring, sportswear and sports equipment.
He is a reference point for the main Italian football clubs and was responsible for the biomechanics performance area of all Italian national football teams in 2017. On behalf of Mondo Spa, he developed a new athletics track for the Beijing 2008 World Championships, the same one that led to incredible sporting results achieved (36 records) and preventive results (zero injuries among athletes).
He also contributed to the Tokyo track by providing data, analysis and information on biomechanics and the functionality of the body in contact with the new synthetic products used for the tracks, in order to reduce possible sources of injury and improve performance.

RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT AND INNOVATION
Dr. Testa, born in Turin in 1959, graduated in Motor Sciences with 110 cum laude and completed a university specialization course in Sports Psychology. He was the technical-scientific director of ErgovisionLab, an innovative laboratory of industrial and sports ergonomics and biomechanics where new plastic, textile, thermoplastic and metal materials were developed in order to improve comfort and safety.
Over the years, he has carried out various teaching activities at the best Italian universities and is the owner of Ergoconsult, an ergonomic and biomechanical consulting company. He has always believed in research as a vehicle for innovation, and for this reason he holds numerous patents for footwear, clothing and objects for personal health. He therefore became a technical consultant for major brands such as Chicco, Eminflex, Healthcare-dr. Scholl's, Clarks and many others.
In 2002, he received the honour of “Knight of the Order of Merit of the Italian Republic” from the President of the Republic and has participated in numerous world-renowned scientific congresses.
Floky is therefore fortunate to have the support of this great guru of biomechanics, who has carried out numerous scientific tests supporting the fact that Floky socks truly provide the benefits we always talk about: better performance, protection from injuries and faster recovery.
