June Skill Player Test Results

[darkhorse]

@James_Smith

Test battery is an aggregate of Combine drills and Max Jones Quadrathlon

Metric results for jumps and throws.

Let me know if anyone is interested in viewing the standard results and I’ll post those as well.

This marks the end of the alactic power training block.

Hi James

I remember looking over these results when they were originally posted. I’m just interested in comparing them with some of our rugby players as we’ve been using similar tests but I can find them now. Have you removed the results or is it just the link has broken?

@James_Smith

Any index may be created, via the appropriate calculations, for a targeted application.

This particular power index has been accepted in T&F throwing circles for sometime and, as a result, I find it useful for comparing the physical preparation of my athletes to that of elite throwers; if only from the standpoint of their power output via hip/knee extension in the vertical plane.

So how much weight would you give this rating? What are the smaller skill players doing for verts at the NCAA /NFL Level?

Thanks
