Great improvements in no time

Global Performance Testing Australia recently provided pre-tournament testing on two occasions for the Melbourne Football Stars squad in preparation for their upcoming tour to Europe.

In just 41 days the coaching team including George Campbell (Head Coach) brought a commitment and professionalism out of a newly formed group of lads who have performed admirably in the GPTQA field test laboratory.

With some outstanding individual results came a group dedicated to backing each other and this was very evident in the motivational environment of our professional performance testing and specifically the Yo-Yo test where the team saw an average group improvement from a level 41 to an impressive level 59 with an outstanding level 86 achieved by Sean Png.

Across the board of all seven tests there was consistency and improvement.

Today’s free protocol release is Power - Vertical Jump including the static, step in and run in used in different sporting codes.  Download for free at www.globalperformancetesting.com.

The vertical jump has been used for a considerable amount of time with the common data collected being the difference between the standing reach and the peak reach during the jump.  GPT also recommend noting and reporting on the standing reach and peak reach data too as this explores athletes that maybe an advantage in “tip off” in basketball or the “bounce” in AFL where explosive power (vertical jump) would be secondary as an asset to peak height reached.

TIP: When measuring the standing reach of an athlete be sure to make them stretch, keep their heels on the floor and try again...normally the second reach is a truer measure as a lot of athletes know how to cheat this system.
