Force plates that finally break free of the lab.
Measure, train and monitor strength with ForceDecks – the world’s fastest, easiest and most powerful dual plate system for analysing neuromuscular strength, performance and imbalance.
ONE-CLICK ANALYSIS
Force platforms have long been confined to university laboratories, but ForceDecks finally makes them affordable, accessible and practical for day-to-day use in fast-paced high performance settings.
With their incredibly simple set-up and intuitive software, ForceDecks allows quick and easy assessment of stability, strength and movement, and it’s all analysed with a single click.
ForceDecks dual force plates also enable unparalleled insights into neuromuscular performance, asymmetries and movement strategies.
JUMP, LAND, SQUAT, PUSH, PULL AND MORE
ForceDecks automatically detect and analyse 15+ common force plate tests
Traditionally, force plate software was only capable of collecting and displaying raw data, along with a few simple summary metrics, meaning any further analysis had to be done slowly and manually. With ForceDecks, all that heavy lifting is done for you – from detection to analysis and reporting.
SOFTWARE
- Collect data with ease - The ForceDecks app allows you to rapidly collect test results wirelessly from an entire squad with ease.
- Monitor athletes over time - Track trends in athlete health and performance with longitudinal reporting. Visualise multiple tests for individual athletes or your whole squad, leveraging insights from the historical data to make more informed decisions for the future.
- Monitor athletes with relative feedback - ForceDecks Jump software is designed to automatically detect movements and display results relative to past tests so you can immediately see how an athlete has performed compared to their historical results.
HARDWARE
ForceDecks have been designed to endure even the heaviest and strongest of athletes, while maintaining pinpoint accuracy, reliability and affordability. ForceDecks hardware is available in three models: FDMax, FDLite and FDMini. ForceDecks software is compatible with a range of third-party force platforms from PASCO, AMTI, Bertec, Kistler and FitTech.
