UMiami Football Partners with OWN IT & WHOOP
Prior to the 2021 season, the University of Miami Football Team lacked a method for measuring athlete strain and recovery that would improve their readiness to perform on and off the field. Despite all the data they tracked as a team, the staff couldn’t sort through it to figure out how and why it mattered, let alone implement the insights in a way that staff and athletes could change behavior to impact recovery and performance. Here were some of the outcomes:
- The team experienced a 27% increase in sleep quantity, and finished the season winning 5 of their last 6 games.
- Athletes experienced a 20% increase in Heart Rate Variability (HRV) from the start of the season, the time time finished.
- The staff used three metrics suggested by OI Consultants to identify illnesses before symptom onset.
