Better understand your current strength and fitness abilities and limits,
Compare yourself to your competition by division and player rating, and
Clearly highlight what strength and fitness components are holding you back from playing your best when it matters the most.
These are the 5 physical tests you need to do as an ambitious squash player:
Standing Long Jump: measures single-effort raw power,
Retrieval Repeats: measures anaerobic power, strength, and squash-specific movement skill for retrieving balls in the front corners,
Side-Wall Repeats: measures anaerobic power, strength, and squash-specific movement skill for cutting-off balls across the middle,
High Plank: measures core strength / endurance, and
Court Beep Test: measures aerobic power and stop-start speed endurance.
