Football-Specific Movement Assessment

MOST YOUNG FOOTBALLERS ARE TRAINING HARD AND MOVING POORLY. AT THE SAME TIME.

Skills and fitness developed in training are built on top of movement patterns nobody has ever assessed or corrected. Those patterns don't fix themselves — they compound. And every athlete's are different.

The Problem

CLUB TRAINING DOESN'T FIX THIS

Your son is developing his football. He's also developing movement habits that will limit him. Club training builds fitness and skill — it does not assess how he moves.

Traditional football S&C is built around bilateral, vertical force production. Football demands something completely different: unilateral, multidirectional movement — 17–19m average sprints, rapid change of direction, asymmetrical loading.

Poor movement patterns developed young become the ceiling on speed, power, and injury resilience. Every athlete has different deficits. A generic program addresses none of them.

01

Patterns nobody is watching

Coaches watch the ball. Biomechanical faults in acceleration, change of direction, and hip extension go undetected — and untreated — for years.

02

Bilateral training intensifies asymmetry

Most gym programs train both sides equally. If a left-right imbalance already exists, equal training makes it worse. APX identifies it first.

03

Symptoms treated, not causes

Slow acceleration isn't fixed by more sprint drills. It's fixed by identifying whether the fault is technique, strength, or both — then addressing the root cause directly.

04

Generic programs, individual athletes

No two athletes have the same faults. Position, age, season stage, and assessment findings all change what the program should contain. One program cannot serve everyone.

The APX Methodology

FOUR PILLARS.
ONE SYSTEM.

Every assessment covers all four pillars. Each finding maps to a root cause. Each program targets root causes — not symptoms.

01

Acceleration

First step through initial drive phase. Forward lean, shin angle, foot strike, hip extension, arm drive, pelvic position. The foundation of everything else.

02

Max Velocity

Top speed mechanics. Ground contact position, ankle stiffness, hip flexion on recovery, posterior arm completion, posture, pelvic stability under load.

03

Change of Direction

505 protocol, both sides. Penultimate step, braking quality, plant mechanics, hip depth, first step out. Always left vs right — asymmetry matters here most.

04

Strength & Power

Four movement tests: split squat, single leg RDL, med ball throw, single arm row. Identifies whether faults are technique deficits, strength deficits, or both.

APX Methodology

Train Rotation · Control the Core · Transfer Force. Force initiates at the ground, transfers through an anti-rotational core, and expresses through the upper body. Every assessment checks whether this chain is intact or leaking. No Leaks = Max Power.

Why APX

BUILT DIFFERENTLY.

📱

Any iPhone. Any location.

Filmed on your phone using the APX filming guide. Frame-by-frame slow motion analysis. No lab needed. Works anywhere in the world.

Football integrated throughout

Drills are football-integrated where possible and where it adds value. Better compliance, better specificity — patterns trained with the ball transfer to the game.

↔️

Left vs right asymmetry

Bilateral training can intensify existing imbalances. APX identifies left vs right differences across all four pillars and corrects them directly.

🎯

Root cause, not symptom

Slow acceleration is diagnosed — not just trained. The program targets the fault source: technique deficit, strength deficit, or both. Not a generic speed program.

🏠

No gym required

Cones, a med ball, and resistance bands. The program works in a garden, a park, or a training pitch — wherever the athlete trains.

📅

Season-adaptive

Sprint sessions added in pre-season and off-season. Resistance and injury prevention year-round. Safe alongside club training at every stage of the year.

🎥

Video review every session

Athletes film at prescribed angles each session and send footage. Fortnightly or monthly check-ins with the coaching team. Progression is earned, not assumed.

🥗

Lifestyle factsheet included

Every assessment includes nutrition and sleep guidance based on the athlete's age and position — the two recovery factors most neglected at junior level.

Fully individualised

Position, age, assessment findings, and season stage all determine what the program contains. No athlete receives the same prescription.

What Training Looks Like

REAL SESSIONS.
REAL ATHLETES.

These are real sessions. Real athletes. This is what the work looks like — on a pitch, with a ball, at match intensity.

What Your Program Looks Like

THIS IS WHAT YOUR
ATHLETE RECEIVES.

Every drill in your program comes with this level of coaching detail. Filmed demonstrations. Exact cues. What to focus on. What good looks like. This is not a generic plan — it is built specifically for your athlete's faults, position, and season stage. Even the warm-up is coached in detail.

The Full Journey

THE ASSESSMENT TELLS YOU WHAT'S WRONG.
THE PROGRAM FIXES IT.

Most families move straight from Step 1 to Step 2. The report sits on a shelf without the program. Here's what the journey looks like — and what it costs.
