A redesigned training plans platform

In our platform, we have had the ability to create and manage training plans for a while. However, we wanted to make this part better and easier to use.

That’s why we have completely redesigned our training plans. We have created a new beautiful design with a new calendar, and the ability to drag&drops workouts.

There are two types of plans, dynamic and standard.

Dynamic plan
A Dynamic plan has real dates and appears in calendar in real time. This type of plan is great for working with a group of athletes that are all training towards the same event. When you add a workout to the dynamic plan then the same workout appear in the athletes calendars in real time.

Standard plan
In a Standard plan the dates don’t matter. This is a plan designed to be included in other plans or to be applied to any date by the athletes.

We have created an advanced training plans platform that allows coaches and athletes to schedule the appropriate workouts and keep track of past sports performance.

You can only improve what you measure!

How pro athletes train

The Androni Giocattoli Sidermerc pro cycling team uses the Selfloops telemetry to track watts, cadence and heart rate of the athletes in real-time.

Tracking real-time data allows the sports director to provide immediate feedback to the athletes and help them improve. Selfloops also provides post workout analysis.

The most advanced Apple Watch app

In this latest release we have added support for the fitness industry Bluetooth FTMS standard.

This means we now supports indoor rowers, indoor bikes and treadmills.

This is the only Apple Watch app that works with Concept2 machines (rowers, BikeErgs and SkiErgs) and with indoor rowers, indoor bikes, indoor bike trainers and treadmills.

The FTMS acronym stands for Fitness Machine Service and it is part of the Bluetooth standard.

The FTMS standard is supported by the Spinner® Chrono™ Power bikes, the Atom Wattbike, Technogym rowers and many others.

More and more “smart” connected machines are in the market. With our Apple Watch app you can track your workouts and automatically analyze all your activities in the Selfloops website. Activities are automatically uploaded at the end of the session.

With the Apple Watch application is also possible to join group heart rate tracking sessions in your gym (the only Apple Watch app able to do it), and track cardio workouts.
