Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

  • Single Leg Hop Test

    Participants are asked to perform one single unipedal jump and the jump width is measured.

    Baseline

  • Single Leg Hop Test

    Participants are asked to perform one single unipedal jump and the jump width is measured.

    Up to 1 hour after baseline

  • Crossover Test

    Participants are asked to jump as far as possible on a single leg three consecutive times, without losing balance and landing firmly. The total width of the 3 consecutive jumps is measured.
