Multi Rebound 10/5 Multi Rebound 5/3
Overview
- The multi-rebound is a repeated jump assessment. The athlete starts by standing still on the force plates and then hopping with both legs continuously during the allotted time.
Setup
- In the app, select “Multi Rebound” from the testing menu
- Have the selected athlete stand still on the plates with their hands firmly attached to their hips
- If done with arm swing: have the athlete start with their arms fully extended overhead
- Have the selected athlete stand still on the plates with their hands firmly attached to their hips
Instructions
- Press the play button to start the test.
- On the beep and flash cue, the athlete rebound jumps, keeping it predominantly in the ankle with limited knee flexion, landing back on the plates.
- Instruct the athlete to complete all jumps as continuously as possible.
- Use either the 10/5 or 5/3 protocol, make sure to tag this at the beginning of the test.
- After completion of each test, either save the test or discard and test again.
- Instruct the athlete to complete all jumps as continuously as possible.
- Repeat for the desired number of tests.
Coaching Cues
* Cue the athlete to jump as high as possible as quickly as possible
Test Considerations
- More jumps can be added by adjusting the time length for the test by clicking the clock icon above the start test button.
- Athletes must land on plates after all hops for results to process.
- It is important to standardize testing protocols in order to accurately compare results, including:
- Warmup
- Instructions/intent
- Duration and number of jumps
Variations
- Some of our users have done this test with a single leg condition.
- If you'd like to try Single Leg Multi-Rebound, just ensure you use the proper tag.
