Sport Analysis

90 minutes. One physiology.

Soccer's elite performers are aerobic machines with neuromuscular precision. VO2 max, lactate threshold, and hip kinematic efficiency determine who plays at the highest levels — and who burns out at 14.

Primary Energy System

Aerobic + Glycolytic

7–13km of mixed-intensity running demands across 90 minutes

Fiber Type Profile

Biomechanical Analysis

What your body
needs to excel.

Athlete Profile assesses the specific biomechanical traits that predict elite performance in Soccer. These aren't generic fitness metrics — they're sport-specific physiological signatures.

SPR + LAT Assessment

VO2 Max & Aerobic Power

The engine of 90-minute performance

Soccer players cover 7–13km per match at mixed intensities. Your aerobic metabolic efficiency — measured as oxygen uptake relative to body mass — determines running economy and recovery speed between high-intensity sprints. Elite youth players achieve VO2 max values of 55–65 mL/kg/min.

SPR Assessment

Hip Sagittal Plane Mechanics

The kinetic source of kicking power

Kicking power originates from hip extension velocity and iliopsoas eccentric loading. We assess your pelvis-to-thigh angular velocity and foot contact mechanics to predict both kicking power ceiling and groin injury risk — the #1 injury in soccer at the senior level.

LAT Assessment

Sagittal Ankle Dorsiflexion

Running economy and injury risk

Restricted ankle dorsiflexion ROM forces compensatory hip and knee mechanics that reduce running economy by 4–8% and elevate Achilles tendinopathy risk. Our sprint and shuffle assessments capture gait deviations indicating dorsiflexion limitation without direct ROM testing.

SPR + LAT Assessment

Lactate Threshold & Repeatability

High-intensity effort sustainability

Soccer's decisive moments happen in the 70th–90th minute when lactate accumulates. Your ability to sustain high-intensity sprints late in a match is predicted by your sprint deceleration profile and lateral shuffle recovery — Athlete Profile's proxy metrics for lactate threshold.

Sprint Acceleration Profile

Your 10m sprint time and stride mechanics predict first-step explosiveness — the key differentiator between attacking and midfield positional fit profiles.

📐

Anthropometric Somatotype

Soccer rewards ectomorphic-mesomorphic builds with low body fat (8–12% male, 14–18% female) for running economy. Our power-to-mass analysis reveals your positional role affinity.

🔬

Bilateral Limb Symmetry

Dominant vs. non-dominant foot force imbalances >15% are the leading predictor of hamstring strain and groin injury in soccer. Your BAI score flags this before it becomes clinical.

🧠

Coordination-to-Speed Ratio

Your combined coordination and sprint score determines whether your profile fits a possession-dominant or transition-dominant playing style at competitive level.

Athlete Profile told me my aerobic profile was in the top 12th percentile for my age. Confirmed what my coach suspected — I'm built for a deep-lying midfielder role.
