    Hi,
    I need to work on:
    • Top speed
    • Acceleration
    • Change of pace

    Don't care about heart rate as such.
    If I can the three above I am happy. I want to be able to measure it so I know I am making progress. So after a session or match I'd like to know distance covered, top speed, best acceleration etc.

    Can I get one of those GPS things and put it in a sports top?

    Any advice?

    Thanks

    To the best of my knowledge, PlayerTek is the only GPS unit which you can buy individual units of and is available to the general public.

    https://shop.playertek.com

    I would suggest that you ensure all other aspects of your training/preparation are dialled in before investing in one though.

    Even then, what will you do with the information? If you have no reference values or normative data for the distances or speeds measured what good will knowing what your data says be??
