Forum Athletic Types

Alannah Mckay has developed an athletic classification system based on training and performance, and I was curious how SYSTM forum participants fit in. So I have set up a poll to measure this. You can vote anonymously for just one choice. I suspect most participants here are in Tiers 1 and 2, or maybe even Tier 3.

  • Tier 0 Sedentary
  • Tier 1 Recreationally Active
  • Tier 2 Trained/Developmental
  • Tier 3 Highly Trained / National Level
  • Tier 4 Elite/International Level
  • Tier 5 World Class
0 voters

Here is a iink to the paper that defines this in more detail (you can just look at table 1):

For the purposes of your poll, and for SCIENCE, I’ve selected Tier 1 …but, as I’m a Sufferlandrian, then unquestionably, Tier 5… but, that is only because there’s no Tier 6 :smiling_imp:
