How does force plate technology work?

Force plates work by using sensors to measure ground reaction force - the force applied on the ground - during human movement. At Foundation Clinic, we utilise Kinvent L-Deltas to complete our force plate tests, enabling in-depth analysis of balance, strength, speed, and rate of force development. We measure force during walks, runs, or other physical activities like jumps, isometric squats, and isometric mid-thigh pulls.

What is dynamometry testing?

Dynamometry testing measures factors associated with various muscle groups, such as isometric strength, strength ratios, and endurance, as well as muscle symmetry from any angle. Our team uses Kinvent K-Pull traction dynamometers for lower and upper limb testing.

How can testing help your training or rehabilitation?

Force plate and dynamometry testing let us assess your body and abilities in greater detail. With this information, we can tailor your training or rehabilitation to better focus on your needs, enabling greater sports performance and more effective recovery. This motion and muscle testing can also help identify any weak points or body asymmetries that could lead to injury risks.

Depending on your goals, we can conduct a wide range of physical tests, including jump testing, strength assessment, and movement speed analysis. Force plate and dynamometry testing benefits athletes in all fields.
