by the body during activities
· Wireless electromyography system and triaxial accelerometers evaluate muscle activation and limb acceleration patterns across different activities
· Metabolic testing technology assesses resting metabolic state and cardiovascular fitness
· Isokinetic dynamometer and weight lifting technology quantify strength
· Research grade ultrasound assesses muscle, tendon, ligament and organ morphology
· iDXA scanner quantifies the mass of bone, lean tissue and fat
· Transcranial doppler evaluates blood flow changes in response to training and injury
· Endocrinology laboratory jointly operated with CB3 captures level of salivary and blood biomarkers
