1. A computer-implemented method of calculating athlete performance, comprising:
- receiving at the processor information relating to records of the athlete'"'"'s prior training sessions and prior performances;
calculating, using the processor, training stresses associated with each of the prior training sessions, wherein the training stress accounts for a duration and intensity of the training session;
calculating, using the processor, a positive training effect and a negative training effect associated with each of the prior training sessions according to the equations;
