30ms epoch for maxRFD
Can the 30-ms default epoch be changed when calculating maximum RFD (N/s)? Epoch for calculating mRFD can’t be changed but it is a good suggestion [...]
When is time to peak force measured from?
Time to peak force is from start of the zoomed epoch (displayed data) to the highest force between the two cursors. If a movement template [...]
Where should we set the zero position when using the LPT?
The zero point is not that critical except for measuring maximum and minimum height which are not commonly used variables anyway. The zero is just [...]
Bosco Repeat Jump Test
How can we use the software to set up Bosco-type jump testing (e.g., total contact time versus total air time of repeat jumps)? At present [...]
What is the “Eccentric Strength Test”
The Eccentric Strength Test is a test specifically developed for the US Ski and Snowboard Association. It involves determining the maximum weight that the athlete [...]
How to setup for bench on the force plate
Do you have any recommendations/guidelines for setting up a bench press on the force plate, when it is obviously larger than the area of the [...]
Why not attach the position transducer to the athlete’s waist for barbell jump squats instead of attaching to barbell?
Many labs and teams do attach the transducer to the belt rather than bar. There are no strict methodologies at this time and it depends [...]
Where does the minimum velocity occur?
The minimum velocity is the fastest velocity in the negative direction so will occur somewhere in the middle of the eccentric phase.
What is the “ready-set-go” button for?
This provides a three second countdown to the start of data collection. This is useful when the athlete is operating the computer for testing or [...]
What is the “mean concentric only” checkbox for?
All calculations are for the period selected between the two points (vertical lines inserted on the graph). For some measures e.g. power it may not [...]
