ποΈ Episode 6: Data Helps Us Micro-dose More Effectively
Welcome to The Xtra Edge: A KINEXON Sports Analytics Podcast where we dive deep into the world of sports performance, innovation, and triumph. In Episode 6 we're excited to have Jeremy Portillo, Sports Performance Coach for Evansville Men's Basketball as our guest. The Purple Aces are fresh off an appearance in the College Basketball Invitational tournament where they pulled off an impressive first round upset of the sixth-seeded Quinnipiac Bobcats.
π "DOMINATE The Game" With Data
Coach Portillo shares his insights on the significance of volume metrics in basketball performance, emphasizing the need to stick with it, especially in the first season using a system, to see real results down the road. With accumulated acceleration load serving as his primary volume metric, he also cites the importance of finding an intensity metric to track, and why. After establishing the concept of density as the frequency of exposures to load and intensity, Coach Portillo explains how he takes the data from the KINEXON PERFORM IMU system and incorporates it into his own personal data collection process that he has developed. Using this remarkable process he shares, he is able to see the frequency of exposures for each individual athlete in the rotation and on the scout team, to best evidence which players are game-ready from a performance perspective vs. which players need more development or recovery time.
Based on the data Coach Portillo collects, he's able to reincorporate the data into ever-evolving training programs tailored to the physical needs and limits of his athletes. With a micro-dosing technique that spreads shorter workouts at varying intensities over the course of a week, he's able to ensure bench players are growing and developing effectively while starters are not being overworked in the weight room or in drills. The Purple Aces' Sport Performance Coach also explains why he hates it when he sees his players backpedaling down the floor as well as why he advocates otherwise.
