Athletic performance evaluation and testing in Glastonbury, CT

What it is

A performance evaluation, also called a sports performance assessment, sets a benchmark. Athletic testing on force plates measures metrics that matter for program design, which lets us skip a lot of the slow discovery sessions and start training with a plan. It also gives us a baseline to track your progress against. We use every tool we have so your training is the best it can be.

What happens

  1. We talk through your goals, your injury history, and your problem areas.

  2. This is a needs-based assessment. Once we understand your goals, we run a testing battery built around your needs, using VALD force plate testing to get objective data about how you move. A jump series comes first, then isometric testing.

  3. If it's needed, we add a movement screen.

  4. We finish with a conversation about your game plan, based on the early results.

  5. 24 to 48 hours later, you get a Performance Report with your results, coach findings, and a game plan to move forward with.

Testing built around you

The testing is chosen for the athlete, not the other way around. Good testing fits the battery to your needs, so no two evaluations look exactly alike.

What happens next

We decide together on the right fit for you, whether that's private training or the membership.

Who it's for

Anyone who wants to know how they stack up. Athletes getting ready for a season, athletes with college recruiting goals, adults who train, people working back from an injury, or anyone who just wants to see their vertical jump and 40-yard dash numbers. If you have a real reason to want objective data on your performance, an evaluation is for you.

Frequently asked questions

Do I have to do an evaluation to train here?

If you're joining private training, yes. Every private training client begins with an evaluation. High school athletes joining the membership get it included in their first session.

What does an athletic performance evaluation test?

Testing is chosen for you. It usually starts with a jump series on the force plates, then isometric testing, with a movement screen if it's needed.

What if I'm coming back from an injury?

This is an excellent way to support your return to play. It is not a medical intervention, and it requires clearance and communication with your physician.
