The Square Hop Test assesses lower-limb agility, power and neuromuscular control by asking the client to hop around a square pattern on one leg.
Introduction
Sport requires repeated direction changes, not just straight hops. The Square Hop Test challenges a client to hop accurately and quickly thr...
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...
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 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 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 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 Crossover Hop Test assesses single-leg power, balance and neuromuscular control while hopping repeatedly across a line. It is often used as part of lower-limb functional testing after injury.
Introduction
A client may hop forward well but struggle when asked to cross their body line repeatedly...
The Side Hop Test measures repeated single-leg lateral hopping ability. It is useful for assessing lateral power, agility, endurance and asymmetry.
Introduction
A client may be able to perform one lateral hop well, but repeated side-to-side hopping reveals how they manage rhythm, fatigue and contr...
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 Shoulder Pain and Disability Index, or SPADI, is a 13-item patient-reported outcome measure used to assess shoulder pain and shoulder-related disability. It includes a 5-item Pain subscale and an 8-item Disability subscale, with scores usually reported from 0 to 100. Higher scores indicate great...
The Upper Extremity Functional Index, or UEFI, is a patient-reported outcome measure used to assess upper limb function across shoulder, elbow, wrist and hand presentations. The original version includes 20 items scored from 0 to 4, producing a total score from 0 to 80, where higher scores indicate ...
