English Super League Rugby (League) 1st Team Force Plate Data

This spreadsheet contains anonymised force plate data for the following tests: countermovement jump and isometric mid-thigh pull.Following a dynamic warm-up, three trials of each of these tests were performed bilaterally and with maximum-effort by male first team rugby league players from one English Super League Club at the beginning of pre-season training period (2021-22 and 2022-23 seasons). The tests were performed in a randomised order with around 30-60 seconds of rest between trials and at least 3-5 minutes of rest given between tests.The data were collected on Hawkin Dynamics force plates and analysed by their software.
