Precise technologyThe Myotest SPORT device isconcentrated technology. It onlyweighs 59 grams and doesn’t requireprior installation.A range of simple pre-programmed testsThe Myotest SPORT device has 9 pre-programmed tests. 7 tests basedon very simple standard exercises of the Bosco variety adapted for allsports. 2 specific tests – the undefined test for professionals and thestride analysis, a Myotest exclusive.Thanks to its accelerometry system,the Myotest SPORT device calculatespower, force and speed, as wellas jump height, contact time withthe floor and many other values. Interms of precision, this Swiss technologyhas nothing left to prove;scientific studies have been unanimousin confirming the validity ofall of the reports provided.Much more than a simple evaluationtool, the Myotest SPORT device canbe configured according to loads,number of repetitions, etc. It thusbecomes a genuine training toolcapable of checking that exercisesare realized correctly. It revolutionizestraining by giving athletes theoption of measuring the speed atwhich a movement is executed – aconcept that has proven its worthamong the best athletes.Saving resultsThere are two ways in which youcan save your results: directly inthe device for day-to-day use andvia our Web platform for limitlessstorage and the option of consulting,comparing and exchanginginformation using any Internetconnection.You can save all your results on thedevice. You can create records onthe Web. Your access is secured via apassword. You are free to share accessas desired.1 & 2. Muscular profilesThese two tests (lower limbs andupper limbs) enable athletes to definetheir muscular profile, loads andoptimal speeds of execution for trainingin terms of power, force, speedand hypertrophy.3. Bench pressEnables athletes to measure thedevelopment in the performance oftheir upper limbs. Placed directly onthe barbell, the Myotest SPORT deviceprovides immediate feedback onthe quality of your movement basedon your objectives.4. Half-squatIn the same way as for the benchpress, this test measures the developmentin the performance of yourlower limbs, principally the glutealmuscles, quadriceps and calves.5. Stride analysisA Myotest exclusive – a stride analysis(or Runcheck) in a real runningenvironment. Nearly 20 values toenable the in-depth understandingof an athlete’s stride: force oncontact, contact time, flight time,angle of attack, undulation of thecenter of gravity, etc. but also themeasurement of the risk of injuryor energy usage. The Myotest innovation,now integrated into yourMyotest SPORT device.www.myotest.com6. Jump reactivityThis test enables the measurementof stiffness (resilience) and the muscularreactivity of the lower limbs.These two values provide you withinformation on bounce quality,which influences the effectivenessof impulsion from the ground.7. Standing jumpEnables the precise measurement ofjump height and vertical elasticity. Inall sports where elevation gives anathlete a competitive edge, verticalelasticity plays a major role.8. Squat jumpThis test enables athletes to measurethe explosiveness of their lowerlimbs. It measures muscular contractionfrom an immobile position. Akey performance factor in numeroussports.9. Unspecified measurementThe Myotest SPORT device can beused in a specific manner whateverthe sport. Every activity requires specialphysical characteristics, whichis why we have provided professionalswith the freedom to recordmeasurements that are appropriateto their particular area. The “coach”test enables the measurement ofone movement. Your device will feedinformation relating to force, powerand speed directly to the screen.We nevertheless advise use of theMyotest PRO software for a morecomplete analysis (see Myotest PROdevice sheet).
