Focused assessment
Speed diagnostic.
A one-session speed baseline, on the track rather than in a gym.
The full five-pillar diagnostic runs over two days. This is the shorter question: how fast is this footballer now, and what in their mechanics is deciding it.
What is measured
One session, on the surface a retest can be repeated on.
- Acceleration over the first phase
- Maximum velocity
- The mechanics behind both, recorded so a retest can be compared with them
