SARMA, S-A-H-R-M-A-N-N.

It's like the SARMA 5 and other ones.

There are dozens and dozens and dozens of tests like this.

This is not an exhaustive list.

From a performance perspective,

Those tests I just mentioned certainly would qualify.

If you have access to a laboratory, or if you're looking at kind of a higher gold standard grade here, you would look at things like EMG.

So these are little sensors we can put directly on the muscle that test its activation.

Most of the research in the ab and core space uses EMGs.

And the inference here is a muscle that is activated more is therefore working harder, stronger, or better.

So if you wanted more detail about the precision activation of the muscles for you, you're going to have to do something like this.

You could also look at things like a Proteus machine.

I know this is a company that I have been involved with in the past.

We've put some research out on doing rotation.

It is the only machine that I'm aware of

And they're not very common.

They're hard to find.

But you can actually do rotational movements on this in a lot of different ways.

And you can get direct power testing, velocity and force outputs on it.

I don't know of, again, theoretically, you could probably do this with any machine that has a force transducer or velocity transducer on it.
