Performance technology is everywhere right now.
Force plates. Dynamometry. Movement analysis. Dashboards full of numbers that look impressive and explain nothing. In Part 1 of this two-part series, Dr. Michael “Dr. G” Giammarco breaks down how performance technology should actually be used in clinical and performance settings. Not as a diagnosis machine, but as a decision-support tool that adds context, clarity, and confidence to your reasoning.
This conversation focuses on cutting through the noise. Instead of chasing more data, Dr. G explains how to select the right metrics, interpret them intelligently, and integrate technology into real-world workflows without slowing sessions, overwhelming staff, or confusing patients.
If you have ever felt stuck between ignoring tech completely or drowning in dashboards you do not fully trust, this episode provides a clear reset. This episode is especially valuable for: Healthcare providers, rehab professionals, strength coaches, athletic trainers, and clinic owners who want technology to support their thinking, not replace it.
In This Episode, You’ll Learn:
What performance technology actually includes and what it does not
Why collecting more metrics often leads to less clarity
How dashboards create analysis paralysis without a guiding framework
How to choose metrics that match the person in front of you
The real-world realities of implementation, including needs analysis, staff training, workflow bottlenecks, and ROI
Why technology should add context rather than override clinical reasoning
This is Part 1 of a two-part series focused on building smarter systems, cleaner workflows, and better clinical decisions without chasing shiny objects or false certainty.
