As we have seen in part 1, we believe that practitioners with a clear vision of the framework to develop and improve the models used to analyse training loads will be able to gain better insight into players` fitness, readiness to perform and fatigue. However, as human beings, the amount of information we receive every day has risen drastically in recent years, while the time allocated to analyses has decreased. This is particularly true for football coaches. As such, data needs to be provided to decision-makers in an easily accessible and engaging format. While optimised models are important in themselves, they are useless if the information does not make it to the people who make the decisions1. In this second part, we will provide some guidance on how to improve data visualisation and increase coaching staff `buy-in`, which may, in turn, improve their ability to make informed decisions.
