Introducing Heart Rate-Based Structured Workouts in SELFLOOPS

Help every member train at the right intensity with structured workouts based on individual heart rate data.

With the latest SELFLOOPS update, coaches can now create structured workouts based on heart rate percentages, helping every member follow a clear training plan tailored to their individual intensity level.

Combined with our existing FTP-based cycling workouts, this new feature gives coaches more ways to deliver structured, data-driven training.

From unstructured exercise to guided training

Without a structured workout, members may struggle to understand how hard they should train. Coaches also have fewer tools to ensure that everyone follows the intended training plan.

SELFLOOPS changes this.

Coaches can design workouts with predefined heart rate intensity targets. Members can then follow the workout and adjust their effort according to their own heart rate data.

The result? A more structured training experience, where every class has a clear purpose.

Personalized intensity based on heart rate

Heart rate provides valuable information about how hard someone is working during exercise.

With SELFLOOPS, coaches can use heart rate percentages to define the intensity of each workout phase. This allows members with different fitness levels to follow the same workout structure while working at intensity levels appropriate to their individual heart rate.

Instead of asking everyone to work at the same absolute intensity, coaches can provide a more personalized training experience.

One workout. Individual intensity targets. A clear plan for everyone.

Already available for cycling. Now available for heart rate training.

SELFLOOPS already supports structured cycling workouts based on Functional Threshold Power (FTP).

Coaches can use FTP to define power targets and guide cyclists through different training intensities.

Now, we’re extending structured workouts to heart rate-based training.

This gives fitness operators and coaches greater flexibility to design training sessions for different activities and training goals.

The new functionality also comes with a redesigned user interface, making the workout creation experience more intuitive and efficient.

Make every class count

Structured workouts help coaches deliver more consistent training experiences across classes.

Rather than leaving intensity to chance, coaches can define the purpose of each session and guide members through a planned sequence of training phases.

This can help members better understand their training, follow the intended intensity and work toward their performance goals.

For fitness clubs, it also creates an opportunity to deliver a more professional, data-driven training experience that differentiates their services.

A New Enhancement to Our MindBody Integration

At SELFLOOPS, our mission is to simplify the way gyms and clubs connect technology with their daily operations. That’s why we continue to expand and enhance our integrations with leading gym management software systems.

Currently, SELFLOOPS provides automatic synchronization for several platforms, including MindBody, ABC Fitness, ABC Evo, Angular, and Mis Actividades. These integrations save time for gyms by syncing users, classes, and signups across systems, eliminating the need for double data entry and ensuring a smooth experience for both staff and members.

The Next Step for MindBody: Spark Inside the Branded App

We’re excited to announce a new feature that takes our MindBody integration to the next level. For gyms using the branded MindBody smartphone app, it is now possible to add a direct link to the SELFLOOPS Spark app.

With just one tap on the icon inside the MindBody app, members can instantly open Spark—bringing class performance tracking, real-time engagement, and data-driven motivation right into the MindBody experience.

And if the SELFLOOPS Spark app isn’t already installed, the user will be prompted to download it directly from the App Store or Google Play Store, ensuring a smooth and guided experience from start to finish.

Why It Matters

  • Streamlined Experience: Members don’t need to juggle multiple apps—everything is accessible from the gym’s MindBody app.
  • Faster Engagement: Spark opens directly, making it easier for members to track their workouts and results.
  • Brand Consistency: Gyms maintain their branded MindBody app while seamlessly integrating SELFLOOPS technology.
  • Effortless Onboarding: Even first-time users are guided to install Spark, so no one is left behind.

Available Now, More to Come

This new feature is available today for MindBody customers. And this is just the beginning—our roadmap includes extending this functionality to other software systems supported by SELFLOOPS.

At SELFLOOPS, we’re committed to building tools that empower gyms and their members worldwide. This latest step with MindBody is another way we’re making fitness smarter, simpler, and more connected.

Elevate your brand and create a personalised experience for your clients

In the past several years we have built an advanced platform that is able to track and analyse a lot of data at scale. Users of the Selfloops platform are athletes; coaches that need to track and analyse their athletes’ sports performance; and gyms that use the group fitness service for cardio, HIIT, cycling, rowing and many other types of sports and workouts.

We have now decided to bring the power of our platform to approved partners and customers. The way we are offering this service is through the use of a set of APIs (Application Programming Interface). The APIs allow an application or a service to interact with the Selfloops platform and can be used to create branded and personalised experiences.

With the new APIs, a gym can automatically synchronise its clients to Selfloops, directly or through a gym management software. A business can synchronise information with the Selfloops platform and integrate data into its branded website or smartphone apps. Examples of data that can be integrated are class schedules and clients sign-ups, historical workouts analysis and leaderboards. 

The new API allows businesses to elevate their brand and provide a personalised experience to their customers.
