The Counter Movement Jump (CMJ) positive takeoff impulse, represents a players lower limb explosive strength. This is the gym metric that is most strongly correlated with clubhead speed. Using a car analogy, this metric is similar to a cars 0-60mph time.
We use @VALDPerformance force plates to measure players CMJ & IMTP remotely at events and testing weeks to give us year round data on players progress.
There are multiple reasons why we use a test like the CMJ with our golfers on @DPWorldTour & @Challenge_Tour

Our new meta indicates that CWI has a detrimental effect on hypertrophy in RT programs when performed consistently over time. Occasional use unlikely to have negative consequences. Employ with caution if the goal is maximal muscle development

Hamstring injury risk ⬆️ in players with ⬇️ trunk and hip extensor max. strength and strength-endurance. Knee ligament injury risk greater in players with larger LM L5 CSA and LM L5 to QL ratio and lower maximum trunk and hip extensor strength.

16th December 2008 - AFC Bournemouth and Luton Town sit 23rd and 24th in League Two, having both been given points deductions.
16th December 2023 - AFC Bournemouth and Luton Town go head-to-head in the Premier League for the first time.
An incredible journey, @LutonTown 💫
We all hope and pray for our leader and captain Tom Lockyer, who is thankfully responsive and has been taken to hospital.
We don’t know the full extent of what happened and what the next steps are at this stage, but we thank Bournemouth and the medical staff on both sides for their immediate response, which was absolutely amazing.
We are sorry to all supporters present that players from both sides were in no state of mind to continue with the game after seeing their much-loved team-mate and friend taken off like that, and staff could not carry on with managing the game in such circumstances having had to deal with the situation.
We thank everyone for the wonderful applause and singing of Locks’ name inside the stadium at such a difficult time.
Now is the time for all of our players, staff and supporters to come together as we always do and give our love and support to Tom and his family.
Our thoughts are with him and them all. 🧡

This is a complete fabrication of what the data says @StevenBartlett
There is no data supporting what she claims. There are improvements in strength of small muscles mostly in untrained or elderly people
But there is NO DATA showing visualization increases muscle mass
It’s not surprising Tottenham are doing well under Ange

Strength loss with ageing is muscle group-specific.
Loss of strength is greatest in:
- Lower-body vs. upper-body muscles
https://t.co/6qF5hnd1wd
- Stabilisers vs. prime movers
(e.g., hip abductors/adductors vs. knee extensors)
https://t.co/U5gawkW2Il
Targeting strength loss in these muscle groups could positively influence balance and falls risk.
