There are a number of reasons for poor storage performance, but measuring it and understanding what needs to be measured and monitored is always a useful exercise.

There needs to be more evidence to consider if music plays a positive role on athleteвЂ™s performance. I personally am convinced that music plays a role in athleteвЂ™s performance due to experience but that isnвЂ™t enough, and there isnвЂ™t enough information to draw a general conclusion. With research, I found two studies and in those two studies athletes ran 18% longer while listening to music, and bicyclists pedaled faster or slower, gained more mileage or slowed down, based on the tempo of music. But with the research conducted we could see that there is a relationship between the tempos of music and athletes functions. Therefore, it is hard to conclude for sure if music plays a role in athleteвЂ™s performance and how much. Age and gender could also play a role in the difference in athleteвЂ™s performance. And then compared the different tempos of music to see if it had an affect. Researchers in the second study could have compared those listening to music and those without. To draw any conclusions I feel that the sample size for both studies needed to be larger and researchers needed to conduct a different type of experiment. Both studies are considered experimental. I feel that I can both agree and trust these studies. There could be something else affecting this data-a third variable like physical condition, or willpower, or even the genre of music that play a role in athletes performance. But as we learned in class correlation does not equal causation. When the volunteers listened to up tempo music their heart rates rose, they covered more miles, and produced more power with each pedal stroke.ДЄs we can see the two studies display that music does have an affect on athletes performance. With a slow tempo the volunteerвЂ™s heart rates fell, and their mileage dropped. As a result of the study researchers found that as the tempo of the music slowed down so did the volunteers pedaling. The volunteers were told to ride at a speed they felt were comfortable for 30 minutes. Each of the songs differed in tempo from the other bicyclists. In the second study British researches asked twelve healthy male college students to ride stationary on bicycles while listening to music of different tempos. In the study Professor TerryвЂ™s athletes running on a treadmill could extend themselves eighteen percent longer if they listened to music in tempo with their stride. Also, we donвЂ™t know the sample size of the study to determine which could influence whether the study is a fluke or not. We donвЂ™t know their gender, age, or medical history, which are all important information that could impact the study. The study didnвЂ™t include who these вЂњelite athletesвЂќ were. Throughout the first study it states how research by an Olympic sports psychologist Professor Peter Terry shows that elite athletes can run 18% longer when listening to music. IвЂ™ve done research that displays the positives and negatives of music and performance. Focusing on the music distracts ones attention from the fatigue and pain. Disassociation is a process that in which an individual detaches himself or herself from a particular activity. The relationship between music and general performance is known as disassociation. A number of studies have shown that music can actually enhance the physical abilities and overall focus athletes need before performing.

When looking for things to enhance performance people tend to think of substances and supplements. Does listening to music help athletes in their performance? Athletes that I look up to and enjoy watching, also listen to music before any game or during a workout. I personally feel that listening to music helped increase my performance no matter my skill level. I would listen to my favorite songs, whether Rap or R&B and I would feel a rush of energy.

For as long as I could remember, for some odd reason whether before a game or during a workout I found myself listening to music. I love basketball and I used to play it Varsity in the B Division when I was in High School.
