i rememebr seeing a video on youtube of a study they did where they put all these monitors on tenor player during a Drum corps practice, and they measured what his exertion levels were. i am interested in finding this video again, but i am unable to right now. does anyone know where it is?

That was from the 2005 ESPN Converage of DCI Finals. I don't know where you could find the video.

It's in the Myspace video archive somewhere. Type in, "DCI 2005," or something.

OMG I have this thing taped on DVD! They like, have this breathing thing over this tenor players mouth, and this big thing on his back and it monitors his breathing and...stuff...

That video was from 1992 or 1993 star of indiana. The tenor player was david reeves( scv instructor, seattle cascades, tapspace composer) I talked with him about that last year. Now they might have done a new study that I didnt see, but Im sure this is the one your talking about. Hope I was some help....

They did the exact same study in 2005 on a Cadets (I think?) tenor player when they showed the finals on ESPN.

Cavies.

Shoot yea, I should have known that. Thanks man.

does anyone have a link to to the video?

That was cool how his heart rate went up when he just heard the music play, he didn't even do anything.

I've seen this before, They had it labeled weird on youtube, it was labeled "DCI athletes" or something.

But If I think correctly, the average working heart rate is like, 175 or somewhere around there, with a resting pulse of about 90. Just shooting up to 120 BPM is like taking a warm up jog before he was on the feild. Then hitting 200 BPM, that's a higher heart rate then when your conditioning.

i reamber this....interesting stuff

Here's the link on Youtube. A heartrate over 200 bpm is incredibly high. Thats awesome.

haha yea..and people say marching band isn't a sport. psh its the best one. amen!?!?

I love that, MARCHING BAND IS'NT HARD YOU JUST WALK AROUND!

My argument back is always something along the lines of "Let me strap 35 pounds to you, put you in a hot uniform, Make you stare dead forward for 11 minutes, And march a complex pattern around a football feild, without messing up"

They don't usually respond, or respond with they're opening statement, Man I hate people sometimes.

After that, most people say "but your still walking", and that gets me mad. Marching band is the best sport, and its harder than all others, even though i do respect quarterbacks ever since i had to play a game in middle school as one(my o-line sucked) and got sacked 20 times .

yea whether or not marching is a sport is something that'll always be argued over.

well it'll never make it to the olympics thats for sure

haha yea that is true

maybe *imagines DCI/wgi dream team*

hey guards in the olympics now (i dont know if its summer or winter)

so maybe someday...

hmm thats interesting so maybe

I don't think it's a sport...It's an ART!
