CNS Tap Test vs My Jump Lab

As featured in the book Beyond Training by Ben Greenfield. As featured in the podcasts: - Harder to Kill Radio 026 - Ameer Rosic Optimal Health Show #58 - Ben Greenfield Fitness #263 CNS Tap Test is an adaptation of the Finger Tap Test (FTT) or Finger Oscillation Test (FOT) which is used to measure the status of the central nervous system (CNS), and is one of the most commonly used tests in neuropsychology, because of its simplicity and reliability, and because it generates relevant data about fine motor control, which is based on motor speed as well as kinesthetic and visual-motor ability. The application should be used on a regular basis to determine an athlete’s baseline. If the CNS Tap Test result is elevated it is suitable for a maximum effort or a heavy lifting day. If the CNS Tap Test result is lower than average it may indicate CNS fatigue and impending sickness, injury or over-training. Both hands should be tested on a regular basis in a consistent environment, typically every morning on waking. The procedure for testing is: - Rest hand palm down on the heel of the hand on a flat surface - Tapping is done with the index (pointing finger), and all other fingers remain on the flat surface - The timer starts with the first tap - When the timer expires no further taps will be accepted - The result can either be saved or discarded. Multiple samples can be saved per day. The resulting data can be graphed, emailed or managed from within CNS Tap Test. Using Swift Charts for improved accessibility and legibility.

My Jump Lab is the most widely used app for measuring sports performance in a validated way, with more than 400,000 downloads in over 140 countries. It is used daily by coaches, elite athletes, physiotherapists, and researchers all over the world. Unlike generic fitness apps, My Jump Lab is scientifically validated, with accuracy confirmed in more than 20 peer-reviewed international scientific studies. It allows you to assess performance with precision comparable to expensive laboratory equipment, using only your iPhone or iPad. My Jump Lab uses the advanced sensors and camera of your iPhone or iPad to measure performance in a simple, reliable, and validated way, without the need for any additional hardware. For example, vertical jumps and barbell velocity can be measured in real time using artificial intelligence, directly from video captured with your camera. With My Jump Lab, you can assess more than 30 performance tests, covering jumping, strength, sprinting, change of direction, mobility, wellness, force-time analysis, and more — all within a single, integrated platform. 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 tests. ◉ Velocity-based training (VBT): measurement of mean concentric velocity, load-velocity profiling, 1RM estimation, velocity loss and barbell trajectory tracking. ◉ Running and Sprinting: horizontal force-velocity profile, contact/flight times, duty factor, leg stiffness, leg asymmetry, pronation/supination, contralateral pelvic drop, linear sprint time with splits, curved sprint, horizontal deceleration, Sprint Mechanics Assessment Score (S-MAS), 5-0-5, 5+5, V-Cut and Illinois COD tests. ◉ Mobility: range of motion for ankle dorsiflexion, neck flexion/extension, hip flexion and internal rotation, shoulder flexion and internal rotation. ◉ Wellness: sleep, fatigue, stress and soreness questionnaires. ◉ Hamstrings strength: Nordic hamstring breakpoint angle and torque calculation. ◉ Force-time curves: real-time raw force time curves using the accelerometer. ◉ Motion capture: real-time knee valgus and squat depth measurement using markerless motion capture. FEATURES: ▶ Import videos recorded by your athlete or patient to analyze their performance. Ideal for remote testing. ▶ Multi-user. My Jump Lab allows you to create as many users as you want. ▶ iCloud sync: share your data between your devices. ▶ History. Save as many tests as you want for each user to analyze their evolution. Export your data to a CSV file. Ideal for research or academic work. ▶ Elegant and intuitive design (compatible with dark mode). ▶ Universal app: share your subscription between your iPhone, iPad and Mac. Note: My Jump Lab works best with slow motion videos. The motion capture feature requires the A12 chip available on devices such as iPhone XR or higher or iPad Pro 2018 or higher. Try the app for free for 7 days. A monthly, yearly or forever subscription is required to access all the app's functionalities and tests once the 7-day trial period has passed.
