Module 3: Performance

Data during a taper

The topic

All topics

In a taper, wearable data adds confirmation, not redesign. Module 3 lists what to expect when a taper goes well: HRV rising, wellness improving, jump height up a little, resting heart rate drifting down. If the data shows the opposite, the plan is not working, and the answer is to diagnose and adjust, not to ignore the plan. Share what you watch before a competition.

Questions to start from

  • Which signs do you watch during a taper?
  • What did you adjust when the signs went the wrong way?
