Abstract
An athletic performance monitoring system includes an article of apparel having a upper body portion and a lower body portion, a sensor system configured to sense a movement of the user and including an upper body sensor connected to the upper body portion, a lower body sensor connected to the lower body portion, at least one port in communication with the sensors, and a plurality of conductive leads connecting the sensors to the port(s). The sensors may be stretch-based sensors that increase in resistance upon tensile deformation. At least one electronic module is connected to the port(s) to collect movement data from the sensors through the port(s). The module(s) may analyze the movement data and provide real-time feedback to the user regarding the movement of the user, based on analysis of the movement data, or the module(s) may transmit the movement data to an external device for analysis.
