HAMSTRING TESTING SYSTEM
Lord Kelvin - creator of the Kelvin Scale
The NordBord Hamstring Testing System, GroinBar Hip Strength Testing System, ForceDecks Dual Force Plate System and HumanTrak Movement Analysis System are the most reliable, intuitive and comprehensive tools for testing performance, strength
and movement quality.
Elite sporting teams, performance centres and research institutions around the world rely on the Vald Performance Athlete Testing Systems for screening, monitoring,
rehabilitating and training their athletes.
Our goal is Our goal is to provide systems that give you the right information, so you can make the right decision at the right time.

W HAT IS THE
The Nordbord (patent pending) is a fast, easy, accurate and reliable system for monitoring hamstring strength and imbalance.
Combining advanced sensors, real-time data visualisation and cloud analytics, the NordBord is a comprehensive system for accurately quantifying and monitoring an individual’s hamstring strength and imbalance. The NordBord was created by
leading exercise scientists Dr. Anthony Shield and Dr. David Opar (The Doctors).
Since its creation, the NordBord has become a key tool in discovering more about how an individual’s hamstrings work. The Doctors’ are experts on risk factors for hamstring injuries, which of these factors can be modified and how to change these modifiable factors.

RESEARCH IS IN OUR D.N.A.
1. Age The older an individual is, the greater the risk they will sustain a hamstring injury [1, 2]. Until someone discovers the fountain of youth, there is no known ‘cure’ for getting older.
2. Previous hamstring injury The best predictor of future hamstring injury is having had a previous hamstring injury. Even if an individual can return to running, their risk of another hamstring injury remains elevated [3, 4].
3. Hamstring flexibilityFlexibility has traditionally been considered to be very important, but has recently been shown to have less of an impact than previously thought [5]. So don’t assume that stretching for flexibility improvements will make an individual‘s hamstrings bullet-proof.
Fascicles are groups of muscle fibres. New research from The Doctors shows that those with longer hamstring fascicles (particularly in the hamstring muscle biceps femoris) are safer than those with shorter ones [6].
5. Eccentric hamstring strengthToday’s research shows that the most meaningful factor we can influence and measure is eccentric hamstring strength. Increasing eccentric hamstring strength can help offset the effects of both age and previous injury [7] - the two big non-modifiable risk factors - and can increase hamstring fascicle lengths [8].

ForceDecks was invented by Dr. Daniel Cohen (a sports scientist) and Dr. Phil Graham-Smith (a biomechanist), with
over 45 years of combined experience in force platform testing in elite sport.
FForceDecks were created as a means to tranform the slow and complex force platform data analysis process into a simple, quick and intuitive process that
accomodates the time constraints of elite sport and clinical practice.
WHAT ARE THE
ForceDecks is the world’s fastest, easiest and most powerful dual force platform system.

MONITOR:
WHAT ISMOVEMENT ANALYSIS?
Biomechanical and human movement data is captured and used by elite sporting teams, performance centres, research institutes and private practitioners to screen, train, monitor and rehabilitate individuals.
HumanTrak’s key advantange lies in the fusion of data collected from both a 3D depth-sensing camera and IMU sensors located on the body. By
fusing both camera and IMU sensor data, this enables data to be captured
at 100 frames per second (FPS).

This data fusion occurs in real-time, allowing live feedback of an individual’s body joint forces, power, range of motion and imbalances.
Combined with its real-time data fusion, Combined with its real-time data fusion, instantaneous analysis means decisions can be made and actioned immediately after tests are completed.
