# Peak Pelvis Angular Velocity

> Max angular velocity of the pelvis segment during the swing. This represents power generation from the lower body.

## Technical Details

* **Variable Type:** Discrete Metric
* **Data Type:** Float
* **Units:** °/s
* **Column Name:** `peak_pelvis_angular_velocity`
* **Aggregation:** mean
* **Precision:** 0
* **Measurement:** Maximum pelvis angular velocity
* **Optimal Direction:** Higher is better

## Description

Peak pelvis angular velocity measures the maximum rotational speed of the pelvis during the swing, representing the peak power generation from the lower body.
The timing of peak pelvis angular velocity determines kinematic sequence in part.

## Normative Ranges

Percentile distributions by competition level from the 2026 Q1 dataset; the optimal range spans the 75th–90th percentiles.
