Impact of rhythm on performance

This factor is concerned with the regularity with which a pattern of movements is performed. The more regular and consistent these patterns are performed, the better the rhythm of the performer.

For example, it is vitally important you maintain your rhythm when performing in the 100m hurdles. This will enable you to maintain a consistent stride pattern as you navigate your way through the event. This will ensure you take off on the same foot when clearing the hurdles and help you maintain your speed and balance whilst striving for the finish line.
