Abstract: A jump and reach physical training system is disclosed for measuring vertical height attained by a person jumping vertically from a standing position. A board is included, having visually perceptible full size scale with equally spaced increments thereon. The board includes appropriate mounting devices that allow it to be attached to a support above the floor surface and within standing reach of the jumper. The jumper stands flat on the floor and extends her arms upwardly to reach a maximum height on the board. The maximum reached height is indicated by the increment covered by the fingertips. Such increment is recorded on a held calculator. The individual then jumps upwardly in an effort to cover the board at the highest increment possible. The attendant observed this and notes the increment adjacent the high point of the jumper's reach. A corresponding increment is noted on the calculator which then provides a direct reading in terms of standard linear measurement.
