In this video, we're going to discuss different options for calf muscle strength testing, as well as calf anatomy & function for athletes.

This post discusses how to use the VALD Performance ForceFrame to measure shoulder strength in internal and external rotation.

This YouTube video discusses everything you need to know about using the isometric mid thigh pull strength test with your athletes.

This post explains the Dynamic Strength Index, a calculation for sports scientists from a CMJ and IMTP that can guide training programming.

This video will show you how to use the VALD Performance ForceFrame to measure strength in the hip and groin area.

In this video, we're going to discuss hamstring testing, and specifically the Nordic Hamstring Exercise (Russian Leans) strength test.

I joined Dr Stuart McErlain-Naylor of Loughborough University for a two-part collaboration talking athlete load monitoring.

When a measure becomes a target, it ceases to be a good measure. As sport is overflowing with measures and targets, this requires exploring.

Bottlenecks are inevitable. Every system will have a point that limits its efficiency. Where is the bottleneck in your screening process?

Measures of distance and "PlayerLoad" demonstrated good reliability on a group level across trials of standardised football training games

The complexity of sporting environments means systems and research must be translated, rather than simply transplanted.

The Precision Practicality Tradeoff describes the compromise between these two factors. Here we discuss how practitioners can optimise this.

One group propose the terms load and training load breach “principles of science”, including the SI, & should be abandoned in sports science

This post discusses the book 'The End of Average' and what the talking points mean in the context of sports science. When was the last...

This guest post from Chris Bishop discusses everything you need to know about calculating athlete asymmetries!

I am pleased to share this new publication in Frontiers led by Amber Rowell. Using the training environment as a testing setting is an...

I wasn’t going to write a blog post on this week’s Training Load Monitoring conference held at Aspire because all the presentations will...

Hamstring injuries cause considerable time lost from training and competition, therefore ensuring efficient and successful RTP is a priority

This post expands on the points made in what I believe is a must read review for all Sport Scientists and in fact any practitioner...
