➡️ The latest version of our software now calculates drop jump force time data using the gold standard reverse integration method. ➡️ Coach your athletes or patients to remain still and upright for the last second of drop jump testing and our software will take care of the rest.

THIS IS BIG. @HawkinDynamics is the only company doing this. Should make you question all previous literature using drop jumps, RSI norms, etc. @ForcePlateCoach always making sure HD Plates are delivering the most accurate information to our users! 🚀
