This study will develop a new jump assessment tool for the Triple Hop Test, and will test its reliability on adolescent and adult, healthy and post- anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) population.
Creating a new assessment test for a jump test that incorporates the known movement components that are important after an ACL injury can improve patient evaluation, decision for return to sport activity and injury prevention.
Study population- Adults, women and men aged 20-45, boys and girls aged 12-15. uninjured population: non symptomatic subjects, without major injury in their history. Injured population: ACL injured subjects, 9-12 month after beginning of treatment/surgery.
Stages of study:
stage 1- The investigators will create a new high-quality literature-based assessment test for the triple hop test (NTHT). The test will have 10 sections, its score ranges from 0 to 14 points and a high score means poor performance.
Stage 2- Performing reliability tests between and within the testers for NTHT. The tests will be done with the help of video photography of NTHT.
Stage 3- Performing NTHT and THT tests on healthy adult and adolescent subjects and on ACL adult and adolescent subjects, assessing the NTHT by watching video performance.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Healthy adult | Active Comparator | Each participants will be asked to perform triple hop test on a straight line and to stand stable at the end of the jump. Two jumps will be performed on each leg, with 1 minute rest between them. The jumps will be recorded via video. Legs muscle strength will be assessed using hand held dynamometer |
|
| ACL adult | Experimental | Each participants will be asked to perform triple hop test on a straight line and to stand stable at the end of the jump. Two jumps will be performed on each leg, with 1 minute rest between them. The jumps will be recorded via video. Legs muscle strength will be assessed using hand held dynamometer |
