Evaluation

At ProForce, our Evaluation is the start of every athlete’s journey. We take every athlete through a series of mobility, orthopedic and athletic assessments to get a complete picture of their overall athleticism. Through this process, we are able to gather the data we need to create their custom training program. 

Our standard evaluation (offered at both locations) is free for every athlete and takes about 30 minutes to complete. at the end of the evaluation, a member of our team will review the results with you and walk you through our recommendations for your athlete.

For every athlete completing an evaluation, we review: 

  • Statement of Goals

  • Statement of Strengths/Weaknesses

  • Power, Speed, and Agility Testing

  • Static Flexibility/Joint System ROM-Symmetry Testing

Our goal is to enable each athlete to become a better, more efficient and effective version of themselves with a more targeted approach to training, leading to improved results.

NEW! Evaluation Enhancements at PF Milford

our Milford location offers 3 enhancement options for our High school and college athlete evaluations. These enhancements utilize our 1080 motion and proteus technology and give us a more comprehensive view of your athlete:

  • Our standard evaluation is FREE for every athlete and takes about 30 minutes to complete.

  • Athletes interested in joining our Advanced Speed Program are required to complete a Standard Evaluation + 1080 Motion Evaluation.

  • At the end of every evaluation, a member of our team will review the results with you and walk you through our specific recommendations for your athlete.

  • When you purchase a 1080 Sprint and/or Proteus Evaluation, we will provide you with a print out of your data that can be shared with coaches, skills instructors, PTs, Doctors, etc.

    • Sample 1080 Report - We will review your athlete’s data and share a report similar to this with you.

    • Sample Proteus Report - We will review your athlete’s data and share a report similar to this with you.

Our evaluation process is backed BY more than 15 RESEARCH ARTICLES and is constantly evolving so we can provide the best possible training experience for every athlete:
