🚨If you (1) sleep; and (2) wear a device that measures sleep/heart rate/ heart rate variability. Here is a thread explaining (briefly) our recent validation of 6 commonly used wearables🧵doi.org/10.3390/s22166…
Caveat: more detail than can be condensed into a thread is required to fully understand such validations. Please use this thread as a primer for digesting the full paper!
In collaboration with @theAIS, we recruited 53 participants to spend 1 night in the @CQUni_Appleton Sleep Lab. Participants spent 9h in bed wearing 6 devices, as well as gold standard polysomnography (PSG; sleep) and electrocardiogram (ECG; heart rate).
HIIT Intervals for GAA athletes, without doing time trials?
Enter 10-20-30 HIIT, designed by Jens Bangsbo, a Danish soccer sport scientist.
Run easy for 30s
Run hard for 20s
Run fast for 10s
That’s 1 minute. Repeat for 4 mins. Walk 2-3 mins. Repeat for 3 sets.

You can also adjust rest periods from 3 mins to 2 mins.
Don’t let the simplicity of the session fool you, these are tough “red-zone” sessions.

We talk about Marginal gains at the elite level but with @OKKULO1 we’re talking around 20%
The system allows you to play the same shot so you can see if the GK is better able to make the save once their visual system has adapted.
✅ Spin
✅ Height
✅ Fade
✅ Speed
✅ Location

Each clip involves the “early exposure” strike followed by the same strike during the “adjusted” phase.
What you will see is that the player has increased their visual system by almost 20%
This benefit transfers over to the typical light levels on a MATCH DAY.

Players have confirmed that they feel much sharper on a match day and “everything just feels easier” in normal playing conditions.

Players / Coaches / Athletes... Make up for lost time with @OKKULO1
‼️ Watch the reactions of the GK in the first half of the video. They look almost fake!
❌ Deliberately slow
❌ Sluggish
❌ As if he’s not even trying to save the ball

⚠️ That’s what happens when first exposed to the system. It has the ability to make you look like you’ve never played the sport!

The second part of the video:
✅ He’s starting to react a little quicker
✅ Starts to drive into saves
✅ Starts to catch able to catch!
The athlete has had to speed their reactions up by around 20% to adapt to the environment

2 de mayo. Hace justo hoy tres años que el Leicester City, en su segunda temporada en la Premier tras diez años en segunda, se proclamaba campeón. Claro que merece un hilo, porque la ciencia de datos fue clave en ese hito. #datascience #datasports #sportscience
El Leicester City #lcfc ascendió tras la temporada 2013-2014, en la que arrasó en la English Football League, la 2ª división del fútbol inglés. El año anterior se había quedado fuera en el llamado “minuto loco”.
En esa temporada 2014-2015, el Leicester City #lcfc estuvo a punto de descender, lo que no hubiese sorprendido a nadie. A falta de 6 jornadas era último. Acabó 14º tras una espectacular racha de 6 victorias en 7 partidos.
