Comment on I Spent My Sabbatical Building a Power Meter for Sledgehammers

Comments

did you find any correlation between strike power and recovery — like, does the pad already give you enough signal to say "don't swing hard tomorrow"?

I didn't look into or find any myself, but "power meter enabled" sports like cycling, rowing, etc. have a way to measure the strain/fatigue of efforts relative to the athlete's fitness (FTP). Same would apply here.

There are various methods to measure that strain, e.g. Strava, intervals.icu, TrainerPeak all have their slightly tweaked implementations.
