An honest read on movement
How you actually move, assessed properly rather than assumed from a generic template.
Know exactly how you move, load, and recover before a single line of your programme is written.
Start with an honest picture of how you move, where you are restricted, and what you are ready to load, with a movement, mobility, and strength assessment at UNTIL Liverpool Street, London.
The short answer
Assessments and testing with Jasper MacDermot is a movement, mobility, and strength assessment at UNTIL Liverpool Street that reads how you actually move, where your range and control are restricted, how you produce strength, and what your training history and lifestyle mean for the plan. Every good programme starts here: nothing is assumed, so nothing is wasted on guesswork later.
This is the foundation the whole approach is built on. Drawing on Functional Range Conditioning, the assessment looks at your joints and controllable range, your key strength patterns, and any old niggles, then turns that into a clear starting point and a plan matched to your real capacity. It is the difference between a programme built for you and a programme borrowed from someone else.
It runs from a conversation about your goals and history, through a joint-by-joint movement and mobility screen, to some sensible strength testing scaled to your level. You leave with a clear baseline and an understanding of what your programme will prioritise and why. It suits any level, and it is often most useful for people returning after a long break, because the key markers are revisited later to show what is actually changing.
The assessment is the honest starting point every good programme is built on. This is ideal for you if you:
One structured session that reads how you move, where you are restricted, and what you are ready to load.
How you actually move, assessed properly rather than assumed from a generic template.
Range and control assessed joint by joint, drawing on Functional Range Conditioning, so you know where the limits sit.
Your key strength patterns tested at a sensible level, so load is matched to your real capacity, not where you wish you were.
Injuries and niggles mapped before they shape your training, so the plan works around them rather than into them.
A plan built from real data rather than assumptions, so your first block of training targets what actually matters.
Key markers you can revisit later, so progress is shown by real change rather than impressions alone.

The assessment reads how you move, what you can load, and the life around your training, then turns that into a clear baseline and a plan matched to your real capacity rather than a template.
It starts with your goals, training history, old injuries, schedule, sleep, and lifestyle. This context shapes everything that follows, because the right plan depends as much on your week as on your physical capacity.
Jasper assesses how you move and where your range and control are restricted, joint by joint, drawing on Functional Range Conditioning. This shows which areas are limiting you and which need attention before load is added.
Your key strength patterns are tested at a sensible level so Jasper can see how you produce force and where to begin. Load is matched to what you can do well today, not to where you wish you were.
Everything is turned into a clear baseline and a plan matched to your real capacity and goals. You leave knowing where you are, where you are heading, and exactly how the first block of training will get you moving.

FAQ
The assessment is the natural first step into coaching, and for most people it leads straight into a programme. If you simply want a clear read of how you move and where to focus, get in touch and Jasper will explain how the assessment works and what you would take away from it before you decide anything.
A conversation about your goals and history, a movement and mobility screen drawing on Functional Range Conditioning, and some sensible strength testing. It is thorough but not intimidating, and it is scaled to your level. You leave with a clear baseline and an understanding of what your programme will prioritise and why.
Yes, and that is often when it is most useful. The assessment is scaled entirely to your level, so it meets you where you are rather than testing you against a standard. For people returning after a long break, it is the safest way to set a sensible starting point before any real load is added.
Yes. The point of a baseline is to measure against it, so key markers from your assessment are revisited as your training progresses. This keeps the programme honest and shows what is actually changing in how you move, how you load, and how you feel, rather than relying on impressions alone.
