Basic Movement Patterns
Basic exercise movement patterns are exercise classifications that are the foundations of exercise selection.
Countermovement Jump (CMJ)
The countermovement jump (CMJ) is a simple, practical, valid, and very reliable measure of lower-body power.
Reactive Strength Index
The reactive strength index measures the reactive jump capacity of athletes, and how they cope with the stress from plyometric exercises.
Wingate Anaerobic Test
The Wingate Anaerobic Test has been repeatedly proven to be a valid and reliable predictor of anaerobic capacity and power.
Maximal Aerobic Speed (MAS)
Maximal aerobic speed (MAS) is the lowest running speed at which VO2 max occurs, and is typically referred to as the ‘velocity at VO2 max’.
1RM (one-repetition maximum) Testing
The 1RM test is often considered as the ‘gold standard’ for assessing the strength capacity of individuals in non-laboratory environments.
