Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Muscle activity (microVolts)
sEMG is a NON-invasive method that measures the electrical activity of the muscle generated by the passage of the nerve impulse, which causes depolarization of the muscle cell membrane during excitation. Once the muscle is contracted and receives electrical signals, the electrodes pick up these signals and record them on the device application.
Secondary Outcome Measures
Jump Force (Newtons)
Jump Force will be measured using the Myjump app
Jump speed (m/s)
Jump Speed will be measured using the Myjump app
Jump Height (cm)
Jump Height will be measured using the Myjump app
