Takeoff Velocity is a metric that measures the speed at which your body can generate force and accelerate its center of mass during the jumping motion. This metric is a primary factor in determining an individual's jump height.

Takeoff Velocity is the result of your body's coordinated movements during the concentric phase of the jump, which involves multiple neuromuscular factors, including range of motion, stability, strength, and power. The power production that drives Takeoff Velocity begins with the foot-ground interface and is then transferred to the upper body through the core during the jumping motion.

Monitoring Takeoff Velocity is an essential aspect of tracking neuromuscular power. Insights gained from this measure can help inform the development of training programs that optimize health and performance.
