REAL-TIME AI ANALYSIS Using your device's camera and artificial intelligence, My Jump Lab measures in real time: ◉ Vertical jump performance. ◉ Barbell velocity for velocity-based training (VBT). ◉ Joint range of motion (ROM) for mobility assessment. MORE THAN 30 TESTS INCLUDED IN THE SUBSCRIPTION ◉ Jumping: CMJ, SJ, CMJ free arms, DJ, optimal force-velocity profile, RSI-mod, horizontal jump, single-leg asymmetry and 10-5 repeated jump test. ◉ Velocity-based training (VBT): mean concentric velocity, load-velocity profile, 1RM estimation, velocity loss and bar path tracking. ◉ Mobility: ankle dorsiflexion, neck flexion/extension, hip flexion and internal rotation, shoulder flexion and internal rotation, plus a free mode to measure any range of motion and create your own custom tests. ◉ HRV and wellness: heart rate variability measured by simply placing your finger on the camera, plus sleep, fatigue, stress and soreness questionnaires. ◉ Running and sprinting: horizontal force-velocity profile, contact/flight times, duty factor, leg stiffness, asymmetry, pronation/supination, contralateral pelvic drop, linear sprint with splits, curved sprint, horizontal deceleration, Sprint Mechanics Assessment Score (S-MAS), and 5-0-5, 5+5, V-Cut and Illinois change-of-direction tests. ◉ Hamstring strength: Nordic hamstring breakpoint angle and torque. ◉ Force-time curves: real-time raw force-time curves using the accelerometer. ◉ Motion capture: markerless motion capture for advanced movement analysis, with full data export. FEATURES ▶ iCloud sync across all your devices. ▶ Team sharing via iCloud: share a full team with other coaches or staff and work together on the same athletes and tests. ▶ Compare athletes to benchmark performance across your team. ▶ Home Screen widgets to track your athletes' progress at a glance. ▶ Import videos recorded by your athletes or patients.
