MVP Analytics is set up to calculate an athlete's predicted onset of peak height velocity (PHV), to acquire this information you must enter data for all the elements of the calculation.
Follow these steps
1. Add the test 'anthropometrics' to an event
2. Add data to:
- Standing Height (barefoot or socks, collected in cm)
- Seated Height (sat up straight, eyes forward, deep breath, collected in cm)
- Box Height (if they were sat on a box or chair please measure how this is, our formula will minus this from the seated height value) - if on the floor, enter 0cm
- Body Mass in KG
3. Ensure an athlete has their sex and date of birth stored accurately in their settings.
Our system will take care of the rest and will provide you with how far pre or post PHV they are, their biological age and whether they are early or late developers.
If an athlete has access to their parent's heights, ask them to add this to their settings page, which will unlock a prediction of their adult height.
