It’s one of the modelling and statistical tools I use in my research activity.
HRV analysis and so on are “just” indicators. Performance is what you do in the field. Is there a relationship between them? Well, it depends also on how you define the response variable. In track it is simple, the response variable is time. But in a “complex” sport?
What is the area of your research ?
Biology/Ecology
Sorry, I missed the post for some reason.
It is more clear now, but after years and years of experience I do not agree on predicting performance. Your analyses seem useful to say the least, but, I know I am redundant, trying to predict performance in a “complex” sport is tricky and if you make decisions upon those predictions is even more tricky. I never forget that much is above the neck and between the ears. At the same time, my curiosity on your approach is increasing. Very intriguing.
What do you mean by “a bit out of my budget”?
I predict performance, I can tell if an athlete will be at his best potential or no.
I’ve a lot of data, a lot of predictions.
If you have a full recovered athlete, best physiological parameters, good mental attitude (here the coach can give a great help), no injuries, good trends, and the coach see it on the field at his best, what’s the problem with performance and prediction of it?
Then you work with advanced therapy, a good training program, a simple but effective nutrition plan, the coach knows how to work with athletes, you have the better scenario.
Simple!
Jamirok, yes it is simple. But it is not what every coach or PT is assumed to do? When your input (your is related to recovery/regeneration/human performance specialist, not to you in particular) is useful and when it is “too much info”? Which are the boundaries of your involvment?
Simple doesn’t mean that all peoples can do it!
Simple is the concept, one word: organization.
When you work on the field, you learn where is the limit of “too much info” and when you have to limit yourself.
Then informations are neutral, if you are too much mentally and emotionally involved toward the performance and the its prediction or you want to see always something, you fail.
do you ever match ARP treatments with bioimpededance analysis?
do you ever match some “energetic” treatments, like acupunture, with the biompedance?
waste of time…for our intentions.
Why is that?
We did both.
But,and I speak for the ARP part here,why is that needed when results are so evident immediately,and managing these outcomes towards a purpose (therapy or performance) is just a matter of knowing how to manage a training program in all his variables?
It would be like matching the the outcomes of the training components in Charlie’s System with bioimpedance.Or else.
Learn how to produce,understand,and manage responses first,and reverse engineer them later,and only if you really wish and need towards a next step.
Baiolo speaks about Bioimpendance as Body-Composition-Analyzer to measure total body water and body water distribution (intra and extracellular levels) through an high frequency current.
It is not usefull for some reasons:
- You apply an external current to measure “general” body electric parameter, any kind of therapy give “little changes” in body electric and Bioimpedance has not the so called “sensitivity” for evaluate their.
- I like to measure CNS/ANS changes with a specific device, HRV work better than Bioimpedence.
- CNS/ANS changes are much fast in their variability (time) than cellular aspect. Probably for see a cellular change you need wait the next day.
- Probably a full body massage give the best change in water distribution, but our approach is totally different.
- You have to do it at morning for an accurate measure, it’s not always simple organize the work.
- HRV give me much parameters/informations than Bioimpedance.
ok thanks both for the answers.
did you ever used and monitorized the arp treatment for some serious pathology, other than muscle tear?
Yes. Fybromyalgia, Depressive Syndromes,and a number of neuropathologies.
are there any studies published on any scientific journal?
Pakewi, do you find that in the case of fibromyalgia, that the ARP heals trigger points directly, or does it mostly reduce the secondary/over all body pain? Also, do you feel that the same things that happen in the body/CNS that contribute to the secondary pain also create the trigger points to begin with or are they have different causal factors? Thanks,
None as for today,and I wonder if there will ever be any.
Both and both ways,whatever the complexity of causal factors.
