Pro-Reflex Motion Analysis System at 240-Hz. Ground Reaction Force (GRF) was analyzed by a force platform at 1200-HZ, and maximum vertical jump was inferred once the subject lost contact with the ground. Reflective markers were placed on the subjects’ acromion process, great trochanter, lateral femoral condyle, lateral malleolus, and base of 5th metatarsal. The resultant movement at the ankle, knee, and hip joints were configured and statistical analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to…
