Club de Fútbol Pachuca, one of the most successful and innovative clubs in Liga MX, has integrated ThermoHuman technology into its physical performance and training load management protocols.

Through the use of infrared thermography and ThermoHuman's automated thermal analysis algorithms, the coaching and performance staff of the 'Tuzos' have key real-time information to evaluate the squad's neuromuscular status and physiological response.

A Crucial Protocol in the Microcycle

ThermoHuman technology enables the staff to monitor how each player's body responds to the high demands of training and competition. As Gabriel Montoya, Head Strength and Conditioning Coach at CF Pachuca, explains:

"We integrate this tool into our prevention and load monitoring structure. Combined with GPS data, thermography allows us to understand how external workloads translate internally within each athlete's body."

The club’s protocol relies on a Plug & Play infrared camera system seamlessly connected to the ThermoHuman online platform:

  1. Fast & Non-Invasive Data Collection: In just seconds, thermal images of players are taken post-match (MD+1 and MD+2) and throughout the training microcycle.
  2. Real-Time Automated Analysis: ThermoHuman’s computer vision and AI algorithms process thermal responses across more than 100 body regions.
  3. Detection of Asymmetries & Fatigue: In under 15 seconds, full reports identify atypical overload, muscle fatigue, or asymmetries before they lead to injuries.
  4. Multidisciplinary Decision-Making: Key insights are shared instantly among fitness coaches, sports scientists, and medical personnel to tailor individual training loads.

At ThermoHuman, we are thrilled to collaborate with a top-tier institution like CF Pachuca in their commitment to sports science, innovation, and elite performance technology.
