Frequently Asked Questions

What does the Cycling (Road/Track) biomechanical assessment include?
The Cycling (Road/Track) protocol assesses Hip Flexion Active, Hip Internal Rotation, Thoracic Extension and 3 additional ROM tests specific to cycling (road/track) demands. Each test measures against sport-specific benchmarks by competitive level.
Who needs a Cycling (Road/Track) assessment?
Any cycling (road/track) athlete or practitioner, from recreational to professional level. The assessment identifies mobility limitations that increase injury risk and restrict performance in cycling (road/track)-specific movement patterns.
What does the Cycling (Road/Track) protocol cover?
It covers 6 key ROM tests, identifies risk factors, and generates a prioritized corrective plan with 3 intervention targets.
How do I get started with the Cycling (Road/Track) protocol?
Apply for an assessment through AKMI. Your coach will run the Cycling (Road/Track) protocol as part of your initial structural evaluation, then build a personalized corrective plan based on the findings.

Tennis

Asymmetric overhead + rotational sport with extreme demand on shoulder ER/IR ratio (serve mechanics), lateral movement capacity (split step, recovery), thoracic rotation (groundstrokes), and ankle dorsiflexion (low-stance readiness and lateral push-off).

 Ice Hockey

High-velocity skating requiring hip adduction/abduction for stride, groin resilience, thoracic rotation for shooting, and ankle DF for skating posture.

 Badminton

Overhead racket sport demanding extreme shoulder rotation speed for smash, rapid lateral movement for court coverage, wrist flexibility for deceptive shots, and ankle stability for explosive lunging patterns.

 Gymnastics

Extreme-range sport demanding full overhead shoulder mobility for handstands and bar work, hip flexibility for splits and leaps, thoracic extension for backbends, and wrist loading capacity for weight-bearing on hands.

 Basketball

Multi-directional court sport demanding ankle stability for cutting/landing, hip power for vertical jump, shoulder mobility for shooting, and lateral movement for defense.

 Muay Thai

Stand-up striking using all eight limbs. Demands hip ER for roundhouse chambering, thoracic rotation for elbows/knees, and single-leg balance for kicking.
