Claim 0:
1. A method for measuring physical exertion by a human user, the method comprising:
receiving strain data at a rate of at least 1000 samples per second, wherein the strain data measures strain on a load cell in response to force exerted by the human user on the load cell during a current performance of an exercise by the human user;
converting the strain data into force-time data of force as a function of time;
calculating a current value of one or more metrics based on the force-time data, the metrics including a rate of force development;
comparing the current value with one or more prior values of the metrics stored in a database, wherein the prior values of the metric are calculated based on force-time data from prior performances of the exercise; and
providing information to the human user based on the comparison of the current and prior values of the metrics, the information relating to performance of the exercise.
