Impulse-Momentum vs Flight-Time: How Jump Height Is Calculated
The same force-plate trial can show two different jump heights. See why impulse-momentum and flight-time diverge, with a worked example and protocol fix.

Why Jump Height Drops with Fatigue: The Neuromuscular Science
A 5-15% jump height decrease under fatigue isn't random. Neuromuscular fatigue, RFD loss, and SSC decline explain it, backed by 800Hz IMU tracking data.

Jump Mat vs Force Plate: Which Tool Belongs in Your Testing Battery?
Force plates cost $8,000-$40,000+; jump mats cost a fraction of that. Compare real accuracy differences and see where an 800 Hz IMU closes the gap.
