Respond dynamically to coach
Elite athletes are 5% faster than lower level athletes (slower by 2%, so translates to
overall 7%
faster)
True translation to sport
Flaw: using another human for test - introduces reliability and validity concerns (not
consistent)
EXOS uses smart speed capacity with a light and sound stimulus
Y set-up with about 45 degree cuts (3-4 cuts R and L)
1 yd behind gate start
Triggered in 45 ms = faster than human reaction time
Also have the athlete go through a non-reactive version
Q: Non reactive agility test without timing system best non-reactive agility for
symmetry (COD =
Answer:
change of direction speed 505
