18 paź 2023 · The reactive strength index (RSI) is a test designed to measure an athlete’s reactive jump capacity, specifically how well an athlete is able to cope with stresses applied through landing in jumping and plyometric activities. It is a ratio of how high an athlete jumps after landing, versus how long they were in contact with the ground.

2 lis 2023 · Simply put: RSI-modified (reactive strength index) is a ratio of input to output – the input is represented by time spent on the ground generating the force to jump, and the output is the height of that jump. The latter is relatively easy to measure. The former, not so much. RSI-modified = Jump Height / Contraction Time. So, why measure both?

12 gru 2023 · The reactive strength index is a measure of reactive jump capacity and displays how an athlete copes with and performs plyometric activities. There are currently five known valid and reliable tests used to measure RSI. RSI appears to be linked with acceleration, agility and change of direction speed.
RSI-modified = Jump Height / Time To Take Off. This gives us insight into the input strategy and output of the jump performed, that is input represented by time spent on the ground and often the counter movement depth generating the force to jump, and the height of that jump that is achieved.
Learn everything you need to know about the Reactive Strength Index (RSI), including the test protocol, RSI formula, RSI normative chart and exercises to improve RSI. By Loek Vossen.
REACTIVE STRENGTH VS MAXIMAL STRENGTH. A number of research studies have shown that reactive strength has a relationship to maximal strength and that stronger athletes often produce higher RSI scores compared to weaker counterparts.
