Performance Physicals for Athletes: Strength, Force, and Injury Risk Testing

Objective testing to establish an athletic baseline, identify injury risk, and guide smarter performance decisions.

What Is a Performance Physical?

A Performance Physical is a structured evaluation of strength, force production, single-leg readiness, agility, and movement quality. It establishes clear benchmarks that can be tracked over time and used as reference points if an injury occurs later in the season.

How Performance Physicals Differ from Traditional Sports Physicals

Traditional sports physicals determine participation clearance. Performance Physicals measure how an athlete produces and controls force, helping identify gaps that can increase injury risk or limit performance.

Who Should Get a Performance Physical?

Performance Physicals are appropriate for:

  • Youth and high school athletes
  • College and competitive athletes
  • Athletes with a history of injury
  • Athletes preparing for a season or returning to sport
  • Athletes who want objective performance data

This service is open to both patients and non-patients. You do not need to be a current patient to book.

Baseline Screen vs Competitive Advantage Assessment

Baseline Screen

• Fast snapshot of key performance metrics

• Establishes an objective baseline

• Identifies obvious asymmetries or risk flags

Competitive Advantage Assessment

• Full testing battery

• Movement breakdown and interpretation

• Clear performance and injury-risk priorities

Why Athletes Use Performance Physicals for Injury Prevention

  • Establish objective baselines before injury occurs
  • Identify strength and power asymmetries
  • Monitor changes throughout the season
  • Create clear return-to-play reference points
  • Reduce reliance on guesswork

Performance Physical FAQs

No. Performance Physicals are designed for healthy athletes as well as those with prior injuries.

No. This does not replace a participation clearance exam.

Most athletes retest every 8–12 weeks or after a focused training block.

You will receive key focus points and priorities. Ongoing training or rehabilitation options can be discussed if appropriate.

Yes. Many athletes start with the Baseline Screen and schedule the Competitive Advantage Assessment after reviewing their results.
