TESTING & RESEARCH

 Are you looking to test yourself, a team, or a product? Are you interested in developing specific tests and collect vital information on your clients? Maybe you need someone to help you look over facts, crunch numbers, and help with data interpretation. ISSAC has access to a team of experts that has consulted for such groups as National Geographic, Discovery, Fox Sports, and several MLB, NBA, NFL and NHL franchises. This team also serves on many scientific advisory boards providing research and testing information to many other programs and organizations. 

 

Here is a brief list of our advanced testing capabilities:

SPEED

  • Analyze Linear and Multidirectional Speed

  • Locomotion Analysis

  • Analyze movement skills and postural stability

  • Provide video explanation of faults and corrective measures

POWER

  • Assess actual power output of vertical and horizontal jumping

  • Analyze Rate of Force Development (RFD)

  • Measure Explosive Power

  • Analyze Eccentric Load Time, Amortization, and Concentric Force

ACCELERATION

  • Determine acceleration times

  • Analyze starting impulse

  • Analyze/comment on inertial influences

  • Analyze body alignment/position, and first step quickness

REACTION

  • Analyze time to react

  • Analyze response time

  • Analyze movement sequence (power, acceleration) after reaction

  • Determine power on reaction from various positions

STRENGTH

  • Examine force development

  • Analyze work load and capacity

  • Examine force maintenance

  • Examine potential muscle recruitment patterns

METABOLISM

  • Determine lactate thresholds

  • Determine Resting Metabolic Rate

  • Determine VO2 max, sub max

  • Determine time to neuromuscular fatigue and anaerobic threshold

  • 24 hour Dietary Analysis
