Standing Broad Jump Calculator
Jump distance vs body height and norms — the zero-equipment power test combines used before lasers.
Dividing by height makes the test fair across statures — 1.0× your height is the adult benchmark, and the NFL combine record (3.73 m) is ~1.9×. Arm swing adds ~20%: swing back, explode through, stick the landing (a fall-back scores the heels). Horizontal power transfers to sprinting better than vertical jump does.
