Metabolic screening at Strength Clinic Academy: precision data for smarter training and better health

At Strength Clinic Academy, we use state-of-the-art technology to ensure accurate and data-driven decisions to help you achieve your fitness and sports goals

VALD ForceDecks

VALD ForceDecks is a dual force plate system that captures ground reaction forces with lab-grade accuracy. At Strength Clinic Academy in Singapore, we use ForceDecks to assess strength, power, and movement strategy across a range of dynamic and isometric tasks, from squats and jumps to holds and landings. This technology provides objective insights into how force is produced, absorbed, and transferred through the body.

What ForceDecks Measures

  • Power Output & Rate of Force Development (RFD)

  • Asymmetry Detection

  • Movement Strategy

  • Neuromuscular Control

Why ForceDecks Is a Game-Changer

ForceDecks transforms subjective observation into quantifiable performance data, enabling clinicians and coaches to detect inefficiencies, monitor progress, and tailor interventions with precision. Whether you're returning from injury or training for peak performance, ForceDecks helps you move smarter, safer, and stronger.

Applications Across Populations

  • Athletes – optimise explosive power, landing mechanics, and performance benchmarks

  • Rehab Clients – track recovery, detect asymmetries, and guide return-to-play decisions

  • Older Adults – assess balance and power, key predictors of independence and fall risk

  • Wellness Clients – refine movement quality and prevent injury through targeted feedback

Benefits of ForceDecks Testing at Strength Clinic Academy

  • Objective, repeatable metrics for strength, power, and movement quality

  • Early detection of asymmetries and compensatory patterns

  • Evidence-based programming for rehab, performance, and preventative care

  • Seamless integration with Dynamo and Calibre for full-spectrum profiling

VALD Dynamo

VALD Dynamo is a handheld dynamometry system that measures isolated muscle strength, joint range of motion, and neuromuscular control with clinical precision. At Strength Clinic Academy, Dynamo is used to assess specific muscle groups and joint actions—providing granular data that informs rehab, performance, and injury prevention strategies.

What Dynamo Measures

  • Isolated Strength Output 

  • Range of Motion (ROM) 

  • Asymmetry & Imbalance 

  • Functional Strength Ratios 

Why Dynamo Is a Game-Changer

Dynamo brings lab-grade diagnostics into the clinic and field, enabling fast, repeatable assessments that go beyond what manual testing can offer. It’s portable, versatile, and ideal for tracking progress over time, whether you're working with elite athletes, post-op clients, or general wellness populations.

Applications Across Populations

  • Rehab & Return to Play – monitor recovery and guide safe progression

  • Athletic Performance – identify weak links and optimise strength ratios

  • Preventative Screening – detect dysfunction before symptoms arise

  • General Wellness – support mobility, strength, and functional independence

Benefits of Dynamo Testing at Strength Clinic Academy

  • Objective, joint-specific strength and mobility metrics

  • Early detection of muscular imbalances and movement dysfunction

  • Evidence-based programming for rehab, performance, and preventative care

  • Seamless integration with ForceDecks and Calibre for holistic assessment

VO2 Master Analyzer

Lab-Grade Metabolic Precision, Now at Strength Clinic Academy

VO2 Master is a portable metabolic analysis system that measures your oxygen consumption and energy expenditure in real time. Using indirect calorimetry, it brings lab-level metabolic testing into a practical, on-the-floor assessment for performance, health, and rehabilitation.

What VO₂ Master Measures

Through real-time breath analysis, VO₂ Master provides:

  • VO₂ Max – your maximum oxygen uptake and aerobic capacity

  • Energy Expenditure – calories burned at rest and during exercise

  • Fuel Utilisation – how much fat vs carbohydrate you are using

  • Training Zones – precise intensity zones based on your physiology

  • Ventilatory Thresholds – where effort shifts from aerobic to anaerobic

  • Aerobic Efficiency – how effectively your body uses oxygen

This data allows us to define training intensity, recovery needs, and energy demands with precision.

Why VO₂ Master Matters

VO₂ Master delivers accurate metabolic data in a lightweight, portable system that can be used directly during real training sessions.
No lab. No guesswork.
It allows us to assess how your body responds to movement in real conditions, not just controlled environments. The test is quick, non-invasive and immediately actionable.

Applications Across Populations

  • Performance
    Pinpoint Zone 2, threshold, and VO₂ Max training with clarity

  • Fat Loss & Energy Management
    Understand how your body uses fuel and structure nutrition accordingly

  • Rehabilitation
    Guide return to training with objective metabolic data

  • General Health & Longevity
    Monitor aerobic capacity and efficiency as key markers of long-term health

VO₂ Master at Strength Clinic Academy

At Strength Clinic Academy, VO₂ Master is integrated into our broader assessment system.
We don’t look at one data point. We build a full profile.

  • Combine metabolic data with strength and movement testing

  • Prescribe training based on how your body actually performs

  • Track progress objectively over time

  • Bridge the gap between rehab, training and long-term performance

Start With Data. Train With Purpose.

If you want clarity on how your body produces and uses energy, this is where it starts.
