GAP AnalysisGoals and Objectives:• ID an athletes current standing and to define clear
performance goals.
• Break down the GAP– Technical Swim Ability.– Tactical Swim Ability.– Strength and Power– Physiology– Psychology– Lifestyle and Personality– Health Status
• Clear communication between coach and Performance Enhancement Team.
GAP Attack
• Training is designed to attack identified GAPs.– Progress monitored through training.– Progress monitored through
performance.
Monitoring During Training
• Repeated Measures– One-off testing is of little use.– Test / retest at predetermined points of
training cycle.
****Best to do a few measures right and repeated.****

Monitoring During Training
• Dryland– Body weight pull-ups.– Push-ups.– Lateral medicine ball throw – rotational
core strength.
Monitoring During Training
• Swimming– Day 1
• 50 dive – swimming speed• 400 kick – kicking endurance• turn index - technique
– Day 2• 50kick – kicking speed• 7x200step test – anaerobic threshold
Monitoring During Training
• Now What?– Sport Information Data Base (SID)– Use data to help mold training program.
Monitoring During Training
• Hydration Monitoring– Dehydration of as little as 2% can impair
performance. – Recent National Team data indicates that 44%-
50% of athletes are not adequately hydrating.
• Athletes that show signs of dehydration can usually get back on track in 24hours using the correct hydration strategy.
Monitoring During Training
• Sweat loss and fluid intake

Hydration Monitoring
Monitoring During Training
• Urine Specific Gravity
– 1.008 -1.015 (hydrated):• Athletes should make sure to keep up with
current hydration regime and pay particular attention to travel days. An above average amount of fluid should be consumed on these days.
Monitoring During Training
• 1.016 - >1.030 (mild to severely dehydrated):– 1. Hydration Before Exercise
• Drink 250-500 mL of water 30-60 minutes before exercise.
– 2. Hydration During Exercise• Replace about 80% of sweat loss.
– 3. Hydration After Exercise• Replace fluids, carbohydrate and sodium lost during
exercise to minimize dehydration.
Monitoring During Training
**** Athletes should all drink a minimum of 2L of water/day plus extra to replace losses from training/competition. ****
Monitoring During Training
– Can you drink too much water?– <1.007 (hyponatremia):
• Excessive sodium loss is also associated with muscle cramping.
Example: Triathlete exercising for 3 hrs @ a sweat rate of 2L/hr losing 2000mg Na/L through sweat:
Total sodium loss = 2000mg x 2L/hr x 3hrs = 12,000mg sodium deficit
To replace with Gatorade (110mg/250mL) would require the
consumption of 27L — therefore intake of salt through food becomes imperative
Monitoring During Training
Equipment used for sweat analysis
Monitoring During Training
• Training Logs– Supplement the coaches “sense” of how
things are going.• may provide information that otherwise
would be missed or dismissed. • trends may emerge that help the athlete
and coach identify challenges.
Monitoring During Training
• Many types of training logs:– Simple notes kept by the athlete to
more detailed and complex logs that document every aspect of training and lifestyle.
– Notebook or online• May not be appropriate for certain athletes
or sports.
Monitoring During Training
• More information is not necessarily better! – Long term tracking– Individual variation
takes time to discern.
Competitive Analysis
• Most direct form of GAP attack.– Are you faster then the
last performance?
• Introduce competitive analysis at age group level to prepare for senior level.

Competitive Analysis
• Variables that are typically collected during competition:– Time/splits– Blood lactate– Rate of perceived exertion– Feeling scale– Video analysis
Competitive Analysis
• What do we do with the data?– MUST look at the
entire profile to learn from results.
– Lactate: an easy marker to learn from but usefulness must be clarified.
Speed vs. Lactate general.
Competitive Analysis
Speed vs. Lactate by event.
Competitive Analysis
• Lactate scatter by event and individual.

Competitive Analysis
• Neither of these analysis are very useful.
• Must look at entire profile!
Competitive Analysis
• Monitoring Warm-up– Heart rate, lactate, core temperature.– Coach feel.– Swimmer feel.
• Monitoring Recovery– Warm-down (lactate / heart rate)– Nutrition– Other (ice bath, sleep, etc)
