Very small variations in load (<10% body mass) make little appreciable difference to force time characteristics of loaded jumping or assisted jumping If you are going to perform loaded jumps, really load them! If you are going to lighten jumps, lighten them and really increase the velocity demands

Shoutout to @DSMStrength for the impressive work creating athlete performance dashboards in Sheets! 📊 💪 Always great to see innovative approaches to athlete management and performance tracking!
Recently moved to using @RockDaisyAMS but what @DSMStrength was able to teach through his tutorials is a skill I will be forever glad I learned.

Have one more day of collecting OVR velocity data against gymaware. I’ll let you know the validity of it. I have been using an iPad with the OVR app. So far the app and the OVR have been user friendly.
