Testing included a countermovement jump test, involving players jumping with maximal effort and measuring lower-body power. Skinfold measurements were taken to note body fat percentages. The players also took part in muscular strength tests, of core, arm, and leg strength.
These tests were conducted by sports science staff at the Cobblers, alongside sports science university students, and the hard work continues on Monday when players return to Moulton for the start of pre-season training.
