## Description

This MCP server provides biomechanics-based calculations for paddling performance. It allows AI agents to determine mechanical power output using `power_output`, estimate metabolic energy consumption with `energy_expenditure`, evaluate efficiency via `efficiency_metrics`, and analyze the combined impact of technique and stability using `technique_impact`.

## Tools

### efficiency_metrics
Determines the metabolic efficiency and identifies if the effort is sustainable

### energy_expenditure
Estimates the total metabolic energy used over a specific duration

### power_output
Calculates the instantaneous mechanical power generated by the paddler

### technique_impact
Evaluates how much power is lost or gained due to technique and stability

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
What is my power output if I have a stroke rate of 45, a stroke length of 1.2 meters, and a technique coefficient of 1.1?
```

**Response:** 
```
Your calculated power output is 148.5 Watts with a work per stroke of 1.2 meters.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
How many calories will I burn paddling at 150 Watts for 30 minutes with a body weight of 75kg?
```

**Response:** 
```
You will burn approximately 225 calories during this 30-minute session.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
What is my efficiency if I produce 200 Watts and burn 400 calories?
```

**Response:** 
```
Your metabolic efficiency is 50.0%.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How do I calculate my power output?**
You can use the `power_output` tool by providing your stroke rate, stroke length, and an optional technique coefficient.

**Can I estimate calories burned?**
Yes, the `energy_expenditure` tool estimates total calories and kilojoules based on your power output, duration, and body weight.

**How does board stability affect my efficiency?**
Lower stability increases the energy required to maintain balance, which the `efficiency_metrics` tool accounts for when calculating your efficiency percentage.
