Methods for Testing Maximal Sprint Speed Compared: Radar, Gates, GPS, and IMU
Radar, timing gates, GPS, and IMU rarely agree on the same sprint's top speed. Here's where each method's error comes from and which to trust for what.
Why Later Sprint Reps Slow Down: A Fatigue Check
A 12-point split spread on rep 5 isn't the same event as an even 7% drop across every split — here's how to read the difference and when to stop the set.
Sprint Split Time Benchmarks: 10m and 30m Norms by Sport and Level
A 0.05s gap at 10m separates D1 corners from walk-ons. See sprint split benchmarks by sport and level, plus how to test 10m and 30m correctly.
