Detailed Breakdown of Each Station
• Ski Erg: This station tests cardiovascular endurance and upper body strength. Athletes aim to cover the longest distance within a set time frame.
• Burpees Over Line: A high-intensity exercise focusing on full-body strength and stamina. Competitors perform burpees, jumping over a line after each rep, aiming for maximum repetitions.
• Row Erg: This station emphasizes cardiovascular fitness and leg strength. Participants strive to row the furthest distance possible within the allotted time.
• Bike Erg: Focusing on leg endurance and cardiovascular capacity, athletes pedal to cover the greatest distance on the stationary bike.
• Shuttle Run / Sled Push: Depending on the event configuration, athletes either perform shuttle runs, testing speed and agility, or sled pushes, focusing on leg power and endurance.
Explanation of How the Technology Works
METRIX utilizes advanced tracking technology to monitor and display athlete performance in real-time. Each station is equipped with sensors that record metrics such as distance, repetitions, and time. This data is transmitted to a central system, allowing for live leaderboards and immediate feedback. Spectators can view these metrics on large screens throughout the venue, enhancing the immersive experience.
