DATA FIRST.PERFORMANCE FOLLOWS.

Professional performance testing and individual player development based on objective data.

Physical testing for players in Mechelen and on-site testing for football clubs across Flanders.

EVERY PLAYER IS DIFFERENT

WHAT THE EYE DOESN’T SEE.

Players of the same age and in the same team can differ greatly in level, maturity and load tolerance. Yet they often follow the same training load.

We objectively map the individual physical qualities of every athlete, so that training can be tailored with greater precision.

WHAT WE MEASURE

WHAT WE TEST.

We test the physical qualities that determine football performance while mapping maturity and relevant physical areas of attention. This creates a complete profile for every player.

PERFORMANCE

We measure the physical qualities that directly influence performance on the pitch.

FOR EXAMPLE
  • Speed & acceleration
  • Agility & change of direction

UNDERLYING CAPACITIES

We test the physical capacities that contribute to a player’s performance level.

FOR EXAMPLE
  • Relative maximal strength
  • Horizontal force production

ROBUSTNESS

We map physical load tolerance and relevant points of attention for each body region.

FOR EXAMPLE
  • Hamstrings
  • Adductors
