Table 1. Agreement between total, single repetition, and contraction-phase specific time-under-tension, determined from video recordings and stretch-sensor data.

Rater 3 Mean time based on stretch-sensor data. Seconds (±SD) Mean time based on video recordings. Seconds (±SD) Mean difference, seconds (95% CI) Correlation 95% Limits of agreement (seconds) Agreement (percentage of mean TUT from stretch-sensor)
Total TUT (n=15) 57.77 (9.02) 56.2 (8.91) 1.56 (1.13-2.00)* 1.00* 0.03-3.09 2.6%
Single repetition TUT (n=150) 5.78 (2.93) 5.62 (2.92) 0.16 (0.12-0.19)* 1.00* -0.26-0.56 6.9%
Concentric TUT (n=150) 1.91 (1.30) 1.82 (1.28) 0.09 (0.06-0.11)* 0.99* -0.22-0.40 16.2%
Eccentric TUT (n=150) 3.10 (2.07) 2.90 (2.07) 0.20 (0.16-0.23)* 0.99* -0.21-0.61 13.2%
