Performance Data: Part 2 – Lead

COACHES TOOL BOX EDITION#4
USING PERFORMANCE DATA: PART 2

Quick Note on COVID-19:

We understand that many of our community are now (or will soon be) in “lockdown” and without access to training facilities. This is a very difficult time and we continue to empathize with the challenges. 

It may not be currently possible to implement the concepts presented below. A suggestion is to use the tool to analyze video of a favorite World Cup athlete. Find out how the best athletes manage energy and time.  

In the last installment of the coach’s toolbox we looked at collecting Performance Data for Bouldering. This month, we’ll look at Lead Data Collection

For each route, record the following:

The 2nd Tab has compiled data:

Round Data is conditionally formatted to change colour relative to values entered in “Targets”. 

The resulting information can help shape training objectives such as time on holds, repeater intervals, pacing targets and more.

In part 3, we examine a Speed InRound Tracking Form.
