Recording meaningful data is a challenge as devices like RepOne are only starting to deliver the necessary technology to teams but once that barrier is cleared, making sense of it is the real challenge.
This is a project we’ve been looking forward to since we started collecting lifting data. Lifter Clustering is the...
