Athlete monitoring is on the rise in strength sports, but not as quickly as in team sports. Is the slow adoption due to limited resources, experience, or knowledge of technology and data? Are there frameworks to help coaches implement lifter monitoring faster and more effectively?
In this episode, Dylan Suarez walks us through his literature review on athlete monitoring for strength sports, offering practical implementation tips drawn from his experiences in professional settings of Olympic weightlifting and baseball.
Dylan currently serves as a Human Performance Data Scientist for the U.S. military. He has held sports science roles in Major League Baseball and at the UFC Performance Institute. In 2022, he earned his PhD in Sport Physiology and Performance from East Tennessee State University while also working as an Assistant Coach and Lead Sport Scientist for the university’s weightlifting program.
Enjoy!
