Upgrade your core skills

The testing of your core skills gives you a picture of your general ability to perform in any sport. Core skills tests are often used by the coaches of professional athletes and sports stars to control the efficiency of their training. Now you can benefit from similar care and attention with a personal report which combines the results of all your core skills tests and forms the basis for a self-designed training programme.

Which skills?

It’s a good idea to take the core skills tests at the start and the end of any training programme. The results of the tests will enable you to identify which core skills to work on the most, whether it’s balance, jumping ability or speed. They will also assess the rate of your improvement so you can adapt the training to fit your schedule. Often, it’s a matter of peaking at the right time.

You can schedule your own training programme by combining repeat visits instore to take the tests with regular reviews of your scores online.

Which sport?

Your training programme can also include tips and exercises to improve your core skills for a specific sport. A footballer, basketball player, runner or fitness athlete each needs to develop their core skills in different ways.

You can direct your training programme by comparing your core skills test results to those of a typical athlete in your chosen sport. These typical results are benchmarked at three different levels – pro athlete, leisure athlete and beginner.
