Listen "34. Wearable technology for athlete monitoring"
Episode Synopsis
Wearable technology is proliferating at a rate of knots - from smart watches to heart rate monitors, posture-correcting sensors and even our mobile phones, almost anyone you talk to is using some personal health data from at least one of these devices. But despite the obvious performance benefits, are we creating an over-reliance on the information we gather from wearable tech? Do we really have the time to assess the quality of each device, when a new offering becomes available just about every other day? And what are the physical and psychological risks for athletes and coaches? On this episode, host Sam Robertson is joined by Dr Sian Allen to discuss how to address some of these challenges, along with what the future may have in store in this fast-moving space.What do you think?
