Single-Leg Hop Return Test
Single-leg hop return tests measure limb symmetry before running or sport—often requiring near ninety percent side-to-side performance.
Single-leg hop return tests compare injured vs healthy leg distance, height, or triple-hop symmetry—often targeting roughly ninety percent limb symmetry index before running or sport progressions. Perform when your clinician clears impact and pain is stable.
Poor landing mechanics matter as much as distance.
Common questions
-
Can you hop test with knee pain still present?
Only when pain is low and your clinician approves impact; hopping through sharp pain gives false confidence and risks setback.
