ForceDecks Test Protocol – General Force-Time Analysis
Greg Marusic
Updated
A General Force-Time Analysis is typically performed for tests and movements which are not automatically detected by ForceDecks Windows. This allows any test to be analysed at a basic level, even if it is a unique or uncommon protocol or movement.
General Force-Time Analysis tests yield generic results, which are broadly suitable for most tests, but depending on the test being performed, may not capture all desired metrics for all users.
