The Anterior Hop Test measures single-leg forward hop distance and landing control. It is useful for assessing lower-limb power, side-to-side performance and confidence during a simple horizontal hop task. The result should be interpreted with movement quality, pain, strength and related functional ...
The Medial Hop Test assesses single-leg power and control while hopping toward the midline. It is useful for monitoring lateral-plane lower-limb function and side-to-side differences.
Introduction
Many injuries and sport tasks challenge the body in the frontal plane. A forward hop may look strong,...
The Lateral Hop Test assesses single-leg hop performance away from the body’s midline. It is useful for monitoring lateral power, landing control and side-to-side differences.
Introduction
A client may perform well in forward hopping but struggle to control lateral movement. The Lateral Hop Test p...
The Triple Hop Test measures single-leg horizontal power and repeated hop control across three consecutive hops. It is commonly used in lower-limb rehabilitation and performance testing.
Introduction
One good hop does not always mean a client can repeat force production safely. The Triple Hop Test...
The Medial Triple Hop Test assesses repeated single-leg hopping toward the midline. It measures frontal-plane power, dynamic balance and landing control across three consecutive hops.
Introduction
A client may perform well in forward power tests but lose control when moving medially. The Medial Tr...
The 90° Medial Rotation Hop Test assesses single-leg hop performance with a rotational landing demand. It is useful for assessing side-to-side control, landing quality, confidence and lower-limb power in a more sport-relevant direction than straight-line hopping alone. The result should be interpret...
The 6 m Timed Hop Test measures how quickly a client can hop 6 metres on one leg. It assesses lower-limb power, rhythm, speed, confidence and fatigue tolerance.
Introduction
Distance hop tests show how far a client can hop, but they do not always show how quickly they can repeat hops. The 6 m Time...
