- 3 min read
At the completion of our Term 1 program, athletes in the New Lynn 11–13 group completed post-testing to compare against their Week 1 baseline.
This testing provides insight into the development of key athletic qualities, including:
Acceleration (0–10m)
Sprint performance (20m and 10–20m)
Lower-body power (Broad Jump & CMJ)
Reactive strength (RSI)
All results below show Week 1 → Week 8 values, along with percentage change across the program (positive % indicates improvement).
How to interpret results:
Sprint: Lower time = improvement
Jump & RSI: Higher value = improvement

Key Insights
Sprint Development
All athletes improved their 20m sprint performance, with particularly strong gains in the 10–20m phase, indicating:
Improved top-end speed
Better sprint mechanics in upright running
Increased efficiency and coordination
Acceleration Variability (0–10m)
A consistent trend across the group was reduced performance in the 0–10m phase. This is common during development and often reflects:
Technical adjustments in acceleration mechanics
Increased exposure to higher speeds
Transitional learning phases
These typically improve with continued training and consolidation.
Power & Reactive Strength Development
Significant improvements in Broad Jump, CMJ, and RSI indicate:
Increased force production
Enhanced neuromuscular efficiency
Improved stretch-shortening cycle function
Important Context
While testing provides valuable objective data, we do not assess athlete development based on numbers alone.
Across the program, there were clear and significant improvements in movement quality, including:
Sprint mechanics and posture
Coordination and timing
Force application into the ground
Jumping and landing control
There are also many variables that influence testing outcomes, including:
Growth and maturation
Fatigue and external training loads
Familiarity with testing protocols
Day-to-day readiness
Final Note
This group has made excellent progress across the term, particularly in developing speed, power, and reactive strength.
These qualities provide a strong foundation for continued athletic development and future performance.
