Jump assessment

The Jump assessment function provides you with information about your lower-body strength and neuromuscular fatigue.

To assess neuromuscular fatigue, put on your headphones, enable Jump assessment in Suunto app, and follow the instructions. To track neuromuscular fatigue over the training season, first you need to build your jump baseline to receive the initial data. You can track your progress over time based on the baseline data. Suunto recommends that you build the jump baseline when you are in good physical condition.

To build your jump baseline:

1. Put on your headphones and open Suunto app on your phone.
2. Enable Jump assessment in the app.
3. Stand in a comfortable stance width and place your hands on your hips before jumping. Keep your hands on your hips during the test.
4. Rapidly squat and jump as high as possible with both legs extended in the air.
5. Land in the same spot where you took off.
6. When you see in Suunto app that the jump has been recorded, press Next.
7. Repeat steps 4 and 5 three times to complete the test.

When the test is completed, you can generate a report and save your data in Suunto app.

Complete the jump assessment regularly to track your progress and check your fatigue and recovery status. The assessment results will be illustrated in graphs in the Jump assessment menu in Suunto app.
