Adelaide · Reporting world wide

You cannot fix what you cannot see.

Force. How fast it is produced. One side against the other. None of it shows up in a mirror or a training session. All of it is measurable, and it comes back as a report that actually makes sense.

Stefan Cali · Strength and Conditioning Coach

Who you are working with

Stefan Cali

I am a strength and conditioning coach with over 10 years working across soccer, basketball, netball and AFL, with athletes from eight and nine year olds through to semi professional and elite professionals. Head of Strength and Conditioning at Sturt Football Club, ASCA Level 2, and finishing a Bachelor of Exercise and Sport Science at Flinders. I also deliver education and gym sessions through PEAQ across a number of schools, including Sports College, Nazareth, St Michael's and Woodville High School, and I worked with Metrostars through their 2021 and 2022 Australia Cup run and minor premiership.

People kept asking me the same thing. How do I actually compare? Where does my child sit next to the players they want to be? For years the only answer available was an opinion, and an opinion is what everybody already has. The Performance Benchmark exists because that question deserved a real answer.

How it works

Four steps. Same for everyone.

01

Get tested

Around 45 minutes on professional force testing equipment. Jump, strength, reactive quality, and every measure taken on each side of the body separately.

02

Get the report

Individuals and clubs, within 48 hours. Schools and larger cohorts, within the week. Where you sit against the standard for your sport and age, where the gaps are, and the three things worth working on.

03

Do the work

The report gives targets and priorities, never a list of exercises, because that decision belongs to the coach or clinician who knows you. If you do not have someone, I build the program myself.

04

Re-test

Same tests, twelve weeks later, side by side. That second number is the one that proves the work paid off, and it is the whole point.

Inside the work

Real athletes. Real testing.

What people say

The work speaks.

Juniors, semi professionals and elite athletes. Parents, clubs and schools. Same system, different question.

"Stefan has been an amazing and positive coach. He's always checking in to see how I'm going, making sure I feel supported both in and out of the gym. I appreciate how clearly he explains each exercise and the reason behind it, which gives me confidence and keeps me motivated. His guidance has made training both enjoyable and effective, and I'm really grateful for the progress I've made with his help."

What it does

You cannot fix what you cannot see.

Testing on professional force equipment, turned into a report that actually makes sense. Within 48 hours.

Individual athletes

The things holding you back are invisible in a mirror. A gap between sides, force you produce too slowly, a strength sitting below where it should be. This finds them and tells you what to work on.

Teams and clubs

Selection and injury risk are judged on what a coach can see. This adds the half you cannot. Whole squad in a day, a report for every player, plus a squad overview for your staff.

Schools and academies

Every program sells parents effort and promise. Almost none sell proof. A report per student, twice a year, showing exactly what changed. It also catches the growth related imbalances nobody sees until something hurts.

Clinics

If you already test, you already hold the data. Raw output is not a communication tool. This turns it into a branded, patient ready report, with your clinician signing it off. It measures. It never prescribes and never clears.

Gyms

Members do not leave because the training is bad. They leave because they cannot tell if it is working. This is the proof. A number that moves is the strongest reason anyone has to keep going.
