Charting in Output Sports allows coaches to visualise athlete performance data over time. There are several chart types available, each designed to help analyse different aspects of performance, from individual rep comparisons to long-term trends. This article explains the different chart types and how to use them.

To access athlete charts:

Athlete charts provide quick insights into an individual athlete’s training performance.

The Longitudinal Chart allows coaches to monitor an athlete’s performance over time for a selected exercise and metric.

This chart is useful for identifying:

The List of Measurements view displays a chronological list of all recorded sessions for the selected exercise. This view allows coaches to quickly review session-level performance data, including:

Each entry represents a recorded set or session, making it easy to track training history and identify when specific performances occurred.

Clicking the dropdown arrow on a session will expand the measurement to reveal more detailed information, including:

This detailed view allows coaches to analyse both overall set performance and individual repetition metrics.

The Set Comparison Chart allows you to visualise performance rep-by-rep within a set.

This chart is useful for identifying:

It displays each repetition individually so coaches can quickly analyse performance trends within a single exercise set.

The Profiling Chart is used to create a Load-Velocity Profile (LVP) for an athlete.

Load-Velocity Profiling helps coaches monitor and profile an athlete’s:

It can also be used to estimate an athlete’s 1RM.

Note:
The Profiling Chart automatically uses the best rep from each selected set.

The Profiling Comparison feature allows coaches to compare load-velocity profiles across different time periods.

This is useful for monitoring:

Examples of comparisons include:

These comparisons help coaches understand how athletes respond to training interventions and adjust programming accordingly.

The 1RM Chart displays historical 1RM values recorded for an athlete.

This chart helps coaches:

Only entered 1RM values will appear on this chart.

The Charting section provides more flexible data visualisation beyond the standard Athlete Charts. This tool is particularly useful for analysing long-term trends and relationships between exercises.

With Advanced Charting you can:

This feature is ideal for coaches who want to perform more detailed performance analysis across training periods.

Charting insights can also be viewed in the Capture App through the exercise History tab, allowing coaches and athletes to review performances quickly during or after training sessions.
