While strength reflects how much force a muscle can generate, power assessments identify how quickly that force can be applied.
Power is crucial for many functional and athletic movements such as jumping, sprinting, and rapid changes of direction.
Balance assessments evaluate an individual’s ability to maintain stability and control body position. This is essential for movement coordination, joint stability, and injury prevention.
Utilising force plates and jump mats, centre of gravity, rate of force production, and stability in standing and landing, are objectively assessed.
Power and balance assessments are non-intrusive and is completed under GPTQA controlled conditions with an accredited professional.
By ensuring each individual is prepared consistently and validly assessed in controlled conditions, you can be confident you will be provided reliable data.
GlobalScout offers power and balance assessments as an on-demand service, meaning we come to you, we provide the staff, we provide the equipment, and we provide the reports.
The service includes:
With variables surrounding number of participants and protocols included, each event is quoted individually.

Power and balance testing provides objective insight into an individual’s ability to generate force rapidly and maintain control of their body during movement. While strength reflects the amount of force that can be produced, power considers how quickly that force can be applied, making it an important measure of physical performance.
Using force plates and jump mats, key performance characteristics such as rate of force production, centre of gravity and stability during standing and landing can be measured. This provides a detailed understanding of an individual’s explosive capacity, balance and ability to control movement.
Power is fundamental to activities including jumping, sprinting, accelerating and changing direction, while balance plays an important role in coordination, joint stability and efficient movement. Measuring both provides valuable insight across sporting, fitness, rehabilitation and injury-prevention environments.
The resulting data can help identify physical strengths, limitations and areas for development, supporting targeted training, performance optimisation and more informed approaches to injury prevention and rehabilitation.
Measures how rapidly force can be generated, providing insight into athletic capabilities such as jumping, sprinting and acceleration.
Evaluates stability and control during standing and landing, helping identify limitations that may affect movement efficiency and performance.
Quantifies rate of force development, providing objective data on how effectively an individual can generate force during movement.
Identifies balance and power limitations that may contribute to instability or injury, supporting targeted training and rehabilitation strategies.
