Research is not a marketing
claim here. It's a practice.

ActivO's protocols are built on published sports science, not intuition — and where the claims are our own, they're backed by our own accepted research, not adjectives.

Countermovement Jump Outcome Measures & Movement Strategy in Athlete Monitoring

A conceptual review examining why jump height alone can miss real neuromuscular fatigue — and why movement-strategy variables (countermovement depth, braking duration, force distribution) reveal what outcome measures alone cannot. Proposes an integrated framework combining external load, internal load and neuromuscular data for athlete-readiness decisions.

Where our claims come from.

Every quantitative claim on activoperformance.com traces to a published source. Here's where.

[1] Cricket fast bowling — ground reaction forces on the lumbar spine

Peer-reviewed biomechanics research places peak vertical ground reaction force at front-foot contact during fast bowling at approximately 5–6× bodyweight, with horizontal forces around 2–3× bodyweight — among the highest repetitive spinal loading patterns in mainstream sport.

Elliott, B. (2000). Back injuries and the fast bowler in cricket. Journal of Sports Sciences, 18(12), 983–991.
King, D., et al. (2018). Ground reaction force, spinal kinematics and their relationship to lower back pain and injury in cricket fast bowling: A review. Systematic review, weighted average 5.8 ± 1.3 BW vertical / 3.2 ± 1.1 BW horizontal.

This list will grow as more claims are added to the site. If you spot a number on activoperformance.com without a citation here, tell us — we'll fix it or remove the claim.
