The Ultimate Guide on Rate of Force Development

Measures of Rate of Force Development (RFD) are used to provide an indication of how rapidly a muscle or group of muscles can develop force. These measures are generally utilised to provide an indication of the explosive strength of an athlete. More recently they have been used in the medical setting to assess and profile patients in the medical setting.

Improving Care for Better Athlete Outcomes

While monitoring processes have been shown to mitigate injury risk by identifying and improving communication around potential risk factors before pain or injury occurs, decisions around how and what to monitor in any population can be complex, require a collaborative approach, and must consider established workflows.

KT360 Independent Validation 

Victoria University undertook a validation study which assessed the relationship between the device measurements and a criterion (calibration masses). The validation protocol included testing of the device load cells at different masses (1-200 Kg), in two modalities of static force application (push and pull).
