With our most advanced solution, the Group Fitness PRO, we can cover very large areas. Real-time data can be received from the athletes and statistics are available during the practice.

Data are recorded and they can be analyzed on the application. They can also be uploaded on the Selfloops website for an in-depth analysis.

The PRO version connects to heart rate monitors, bike power sensors, cadence sensors, rowers. We have tested the application on velodromes, athletics tracks and swimming pools.

Real-time analysis and feedback is key to improve performance. Post-analysis of the workouts complements the data driven approach to sport performance.

No matter where you are

Gold medal winners use Selfloops! Bravo Filippo Ganna (and the Italian Cycling Federation staff).

It’s gold for the Italian in the men’s individual pursuit at the 2016 UCI Track Cycling World Championships in London 2-6 March, Lee Valley VeloPark.

The Group Fitness Premium application is now listed in the Concept2 website, in the third-party software section.
With the application you can track multiple Concept2 rowers or SkiErgs wirelessly at same time and in real-time.
After the session, the workout can be uploaded on Selfloops for an in-depth analysis, for coaches and users. PM5 and PM4 are both supported.

One of the tools we offer in our web platform is called the Mean-Max analysis.
The Mean-Max graph shows the max average value you had during your rides for a certain metric. You can visualize this graph for a single ride or for all your past rides.

Taking for example the Mean-Max Heart rate graph, the 183bpm (beats per minute) 20 seconds, means that in your ride, you have had a max of 183bpm in average for 20 seconds. You can use this graph to analyze how intense was your activity. And If you were in better shape, you were probably able to maintain a lower heart rate for the same effort.

If you use a bike power meter, the graph will show your ability to express and sustain a certain bike power for different durations. Sprinters will have a very high value of Watts for short durations, while a time trialist or a climber will produce different graphs as they will have lower Watts for short durations than a sprinter, but they will be able to keep the bike power for longer periods or stretches. The Mean-Max analysis for bike power is also called the Critical Power.
