Daily Data Helps Player Maximize Performance for Matches and Training Sessions

April 1, 2021 - United Soccer League Championship (USL)
Sacramento Republic FC News Release


Before training starts each day, Republic FC Strength and Conditioning Coach Luke Rayfield and Head Athletic Trainer Betty Olmedo assemble the technical staff and examine the most important factor for the next training session. No, not the weather or the practice plan... but the sleep and recovery rates from the WHOOP strap 3.0 that every Republic player wears.

With a fresh set of data at hand, Betty, Luke and the entire technical staff can check in with players on how they are feeling, how much the training session and previous day stressed their body, and how they feel for the days ahead. Together with player feedback and the insights from WHOOP, the team can tackle the practice plan and tailor the necessary recovery for players heading into matchday. The data provides day-to-day insights for the players and coaching staff, as well as longer term analysis that can help create better baselines and performance goals.

To help fans focus on their health and wellness while sharing in the same experience as the pros, Republic FC is giving away a WHOOP Strap 3.0 and membership for 24/7 performance optimization. For additional details and to enter visit SacRepublicFC.com/whoop before April 3rd.

Republic FC fans can also take advantage of a special team offer and receive $30 off any new WHOOP membership.

"Republic FC is taking an advanced approach when it comes to working with players to unlock its players full potential and achieve peak performance," said Ronan Jones, Elite Performance Manager at WHOOP.

WHOOP captures heart rate data every single second and continuously monitors cardiovascular load so members know how much stress they are putting on their bodies. Members are able to track numerous lifestyle choices ranging from hydration and nutrition to sleep habits and activities to better understand their impact on overall well-being while promoting positive behavior change. The wearable technology uses proprietary algorithms to calculate daily recovery based on key biometrics such as heart rate variability, resting heart rate, sleep, and respiratory rate.
