LABORATORY - High performance LAB.

Services developed in the Lab:

  • Acceleration capacity assesment. Force-velocity and load-horizontal velocity profile.
  • Metabolic capacity assessment. Test 30-15 and RSA.
  • Strength assessment. Load-speed profiles for basic strength exercises.
Complete assesment pack:
  • Training adviced: Individualized and specific program based on individual needs (requires previous assessments).
  • Technological advice (for teams only): Analysis of weekly training loads through GPS (1 microcycle): training/competition load ratios, analysis of tasks used, acceleration-speed profiles. Analysis of worst-case scenarios.
  • Assessment, readaptation and return to competition process: Assessment and readaptation of pathologies.
