Welcome to another episode of the Assemble Performance Podcast! In this episode, we dive deep into the world of data and wearables and how they can optimize your training, whether you're into hybrid, endurance, or strength training.

I often get questions about Garmin, Whoop bands, Apple Watches, and Oura Rings from my followers on Instagram and my athletes, so I decided to break it all down. We'll explore various wearables from brands like Amazfit, Koros, and Garmin, and discuss their pros and cons. We'll also delve into the difference between a data-first approach and a subjective-first approach, and how to strike a balance between the two.

Whether you're just tracking your steps or logging detailed metrics, this episode will help you make sense of all the data and use it to enhance your performance. Don't miss the practical tips and insights I share based on my experience as a coach and athlete. Tune in for a comprehensive discussion that's sure to add value to your training regimen!
