Jump Analysis

Jump testing on the force plate with squat jump, counter movement jump and drop jump — two-legged and single-leg. 45 minutes. Milliseconds reveal what kind of athlete you are. Included in the Strength & Jump package (CHF 249) together with maximal strength and body composition — short analysis included.

At a glance

• Duration: 45 minutes, incl. 10-minute analysis
• Price: CHF 150 as a single test — included in Strength & Jump, Run Technique and All-In
• Suitability: from age 14; fitness for sport is a prerequisite
• You receive: PDF report + video frames — jump height, ground contact time, RSI, asymmetry

Six measurements. Your complete jump profile.

• CMJ (counter movement jump) (cm) — jump height from standing with a countermovement. Overall jump performance and strength-speed profile.
• SJ (squat jump) (cm) — jump height from a static squat. Pure concentric strength.
• Drop jump, two-legged and single-leg (cm, ms) — jump after landing from a box. Reactive strength and plyometric capacity.
• RSI (reactive strength index) (m/s) — jump height divided by ground contact time. Sprint power and a competition indicator.
• Leg-axis stability (rating) — control of the leg axis at take-off and landing. Knee stability and injury prevention.
• Left/right asymmetry (% difference) — single-leg jumps compared side to side. Injury risk and return-to-sport criterion.

What your PDF report contains

• All measured parameters, put in context against your age group
• Individual training zones with heart-rate and watt ranges
• A training plan for the next 8–12 weeks — in the detailed analysis (CHF 80, within 24 h; included in Run Technique, Endurance and All-In)
• A re-test recommendation with the option to compare results

Frequently asked before booking

How exactly does the jump analysis work?

You jump on a calibrated force plate while a camera records. We calculate flight time, jump height, ground contact time and asymmetry — two-legged and single-leg — and assess your leg axis at take-off and landing.

When is jump analysis particularly useful?

In late-stage rehab (return to sport after ACL, Achilles or MPFL surgery), in competitive sport as a benchmark, and whenever a one-sided deficit is suspected. An LSI above 90% is considered a central return-to-sport criterion.

Do I need to prepare?

Last intense training session at least 24 hours before. Bring sports clothing and training shoes. The warm-up takes place on site.

Which sports benefit most?

Any sport with a jumping, sprinting or change-of-direction component: volleyball, basketball, ice hockey, football, athletics — and runners, because of reactive strength.

When does a re-test make sense?

Every 8–12 weeks during a rehab build-up, and twice per season in competitive sport.
