OH squat assessment
single leg squat assessment
Pushing assessment
pulling assessment

Question 22

valgus

Answer 22

move inward

Question 23

why knee valgus happens

Answer 23

descreased hip abductor and hip external rotation strength, increased hip adductor activity, restricted ankle dorsiflexion

core stability assessments

Answer 25

double leg lowering test-strength is determined by score. 50-poor, 60-fair, 80-good, 100-normal
sorenson erector spinae test

Question 26

single leg star balance excursion test

measures upper extremity agility and stabilization

Question 28

strength assessments

Answer 28

bench press-estimate 1rm
squat-estimate 1rm
pull ups
push ups

Question 29

power assessments

Answer 29

power clean-estimate 1rm
rotation med ball throw- measures total body transverse plane strength and power
OH med ball throw-measures total body strength and power
standing soccer throw-measures total power of the core and upper extremities
double leg vertical- measure total body bilateral power
double leg horizontal jump(long jump)-measure total body bilateral power in a more dynamic fashion
single leg horizontal jump(long 1 leg jump)-measure unilateral power and dynamic stabilization
power clean-estimate 1rm
rotation med ball throw- measures total body transverse plane strength and power
OH med ball throw-measures total body strength and power
standing soccer throw-measures total power of the core and upper extremities
double leg vertical- measure total body bilateral power
double leg horizontal jump(long jump)-measure total body bilateral power in a more dynamic fashion
single leg horizontal jump(long 1 leg jump)-measure unilateral power and dynamic stabilization

Question 30

shark skill test

Answer 30

test to assess lower extremity agility and neuromuscular control.
each test performed twice with each foot(4 times total)
.10 seconds added for each of these faults: non hop leg touches ground, hands come off hips, foot goes into wrong square, foot does not return to center square
