Foot Tapping

The test provides quantitative assessment of the cyclic speed and the coordination of the lower body. A good level of the complex stress form of speed is directly associated with successful mastery of diverse game situations in which fast movements are required. It is therefore considered an essential component of sport-specific performance. Quantitative evaluation of the speed of movement is used to identify deficits within the neuromuscular control as well as a rapid fatigue of the neuromuscular system in the sense of a frequency drop.
