Key Metrics for Monitoring Athletic Performance

When analyzing the performance of athletes, two key clusters of metrics are important: velocity measures related to flight time and temporal aspects such as contraction time.

Monitoring these metrics can reveal changes in movement time due to factors like acute stress, fatigue, recovery, and readiness, while typically the output metric remains relatively consistent as athletes find ways to maintain performance levels.
