5 TRAINING
Training mode is available in three tests:
ST
,
Contact Times
and
Throwing Gate
. In training mode the best test result made
by the subject in the particular test is located and used as a
base for the training, for example velocity of 8 m/s in
ST
. A
percentage of the best result is chosen and a
Target Result
is
calculated from the actual result and the percentage. For ex-
ample, 90% of the original
ST
velocity results in 7,2 m/s
Tar-
get Result
. The
Subject
then tries to perform the test so that he
gets results that are as close as possible to the
Target Result
.
As training example do the following:
1. Set up two photocells 10 meters apart.
2. Start Powertimer.
3. Start
ST
test using the session created in the
Drop Jump
ex-
ample.
4. Set the
ST
parameters to 10-meter distance, 1 retry and 0
split times.
5. Start the test and tell the subject to sprint the distance.
6. End the test to return to the
Start Test
view.
To start training, select the
Start Training
action from the ac-
tion selector and tap the
Do Action
button. This makes a con-
nection to the
Measurement Unit
and enters the
Training
view
shown in Figure 34.
The
Test Result
field shows the best result made by the subject
in actual tests. The
Target Result
field shows the velocity the
subject should be running in the training. If you change the
