ProSport Progress - Step 3: Reassessment at 3–4 months
Available with home visit ProSport Progress – Step 3: Reassessment after 3–4 months is the final stage of the sports monitoring program designed for both women and men who regularly engage in physical activity and want to evaluate their training results.
