5 sportspersons who could really use the Moto 360 smartwatch

Sportspersons in the modern day are very well-trained and focused on their goal. Their training regimes are tailored to help them develop a habit, a routine, that helps them perform their best in live matches.

While some of these routines are regular and not so time taking, some others are really time-taking and these athletes could really use a sports-watch, just like the Moto 360 Sport smartwatch, which can help them understand their habits, and plan better, so that it helps optimise their energy while playing!

1) Rafael Nadal

The legendary Spaniard is known for his very famous and rather quirky routine while on court. Rafael Nadal has a routine as part of which he sprints to the baseline, running zig-zag, and also arranges his water bottles next to his chair, at each change of ends.

However, his most quirky and time-taking habit, is that of adjusting the back of his underwear in between points, especially during his service games. The daily tracker inbuilt into the Moto 360 Sport can really help Nadal keep track of all his idiosyncracies and obsessive habits, allowing him to function at his best!

2) Michael Carrick

The Manchester United midfielder has had a great career with the English giants and was an integral part of their star-studded squad during their glory years from 2006 to 2013. Known for his distribution and calmness under pressure, Carrick is always available to receive the ball, in any sort of situation, and does not shy away from tough moments.

However, even he would agree that sometimes, he tends to spend a lot of time on the ball, without actually making a pass, something that his teammates themselves would be hoping that he changes!

Though he takes time on the ball, the midfielder has experienced great success throughout his career, and is one of the coolest competitors under pressure.

He is known to be very calm under pressure, and the Moto 360 Sport can help him improve upon the quickness of his passing and accuracy with respect to time taken, and will help him assess his passing frequency and time taken through updates from coaches during training, all of which can help tune his abilities to perform at his best during the match.

3) Carolina Marin

Marin, who is currently the world number 1 in women’s singles, is known to be a fierce competitor and a very talented badminton player. The Spaniard, however, is also known to have a lot of habits on the court, most of which help her stay calm and in control during her matches.

The southpaw has this tendency to repeatedly ask the referee to check the shuttle, even if there isn’t any apparent damage to it. Also, she likes asking for the towel to wipe her face, helping her let some time pass to gather her thoughts in between points.

Sometimes, she has also been seen moving away from the court, to try and have a word with her coaches, all while she’s animated and completely involved in her match.

The fact that Marin has been so successful, shows that her methods really work for her. Though her routine has been very good, considering that she is only 22, the Moto 360 Sport can really help her finetune her time on the court, and preserve her energy for just the right moments.

4) Maria Sharapova

The Russian probably follows one of the most elaborate routines on the tennis court, never worrying about time, always following her steps religiously. In between points, Sharapova follows the same routine always, starting with turning her back on her opponent and playing with the racquet strings as soon as a point ends.

She then will take balls from the same side of the court she has throughout the match, walk to the baseline and then bounce it on the spot. To finish her routine, she will brush her hair away from the side of her face, bounce the ball slowly, twice, before, finally, serving!

Using the Moto 360 Sport, she will be able to know in detail the time she needs to spend in order to get her routine perfectly aligned. Using the tracker feature will also help her understand if she is maybe spending more time than needed on any particular habit, and then can take care of that accordingly.

5) Mahendra Singh Dhoni

The Indian limited overs and T20 captain, Dhoni, has an interesting set of habits/ idiosyncracies he follows on the field when he’s out batting.

He’s known to put his bat against his pad, then takes his gloves off and then put them back on in between balls. During India’s fielding, he takes his own time, setting the perfect field, and runs off to consult with other senior members of the squad in between deliveries.

Known as Captain Cool, MS Dhoni can use the Moto 360 Sport smartwatch to great advantage, calculating exactly how much time he spends in between balls.

As a captain as well, he can bracket the time he spends discussing changes and tactics with bowlers, with reminders set to help him keep time limits in mind, so he can avoid getting penalised by the authorities!
