Luiss Sport Lab, the evaluation and research laboratory aimed at performance improvement

The Luiss Sport Lab “Gianni Delfini” was born as an evaluation and research laboratory aimed at improving sports and human performance, putting into system scientific bases and computer support for the achievement of maximum individual potential.

The concentration of activities initiated within the project has allowed, from 2017 to date, a continuous evolution of the research protocols used. The measurements of cognitive and physical abilities have shown a very high degree of reliability of the tests carried out.

In these years, the main objective has been to do research and apply it for the improvement of sports performance.

Research, analysis and data processing have been key activities that have distinguished the work carried out with passion and professionalism by our technical and scientific staff.

Sport gets inside companies
Starting from the first sports tests carried out on the AS Luiss Teams of Basketball Serie B, Football Eccellenza and Women’s Volleyball and on the Luiss Top Athletes Filippo Tortu, Eloisa Coiro, Davide Di Veroli and Giorgio Avola, we were able to apply, with the necessary adjustments, the analysis methodology used in high performance sports to the corporate world. In fact, in July 2019, the leadership of Luiss University was involved in an experimentation, certifying a path that will also be repeated for all the administrative staff of our University. All this has allowed us to draft a protocol for the analysis of Corporate Welfare, using a correlation of data called the Luiss Sport Lab Index. The index has made it possible to measure the degree of psycho-physical well-being of those involved, correlating data on cognitive and physical abilities.
