The Crossover Hop Test is a Functional Performance Test (FPT), which is used to demonstrate the leg muscles strength and performance, and evaluate symmetry between lower limbs, while evaluating the hop distance. Hop tests have been shown to be reliable for both injured and active subjects. The current study aims to establish the between days reliability of 2-Dimensional (2D) video analysis measuring knee valgus angles (frontal plane projection angle; FPPA) during each landing whilst undertaking a crossover hop test. Nine recreational male athletes (age 33.89 ± 3.96, height 170 ± 8.59 cm, weight 86.94 ± 20.86 kg) participated in the experiment. Each individual performed three repetitions of the cross over hop test, for both legs, and then repeated the same test seven days later. Results showed from the four landings that the first and third, for both legs demonstra.. Read More»
