What the Overlays Mean

Lines, angles, and phase markers — a plain-language key to what you are seeing.

4 min

Reading the lines

The overlay traces key points of your body and, for some sports, the club or implement. The angles it shows are estimates from those points — useful for spotting a pattern, not for chasing a single decimal place.

Density controls how much you see: a simple view for a quick look, a coach view for teaching, and a full lab view when you want everything.

Key takeaways

  • Overlays are estimates for spotting patterns, not exact measurements.
  • Use simple density for a quick look, full density when you want detail.
