A great new update for SELFLOOPS STREAMS is here. We already support video and heart rate data live streaming, and the Apple Watch. Videos can be live streamed or be played on-demand.
Streams was integrated with YouTube and YouTube Live. We now have added Zoom and Vimeo. That means you can embed those services directly on the Selfloops website.
Reach your clients Anywhere, Anytime
SELFLOOPS STREAMS allows you to live stream your classes and monitor your clients workout intensity in real-time, anywhere they are.
Selfloops Streams is a service that lets gyms, clubs and personal trainers stream their classes.
Video can be streamed live or on demand. Heart rate for all the participants is streamed in real-time. The workout intensity is color-coded based on five heart rate zones.
Garmin has released sport watches and wrist-based fitness trackers with built-in optical heart rate monitors.
These units are able to broadcast heart rate data using ANT+ and newer models are also able to broadcast data using the Bluetooth Smart protocol.
Devices that broadcast heart rate data using the Bluetooth Smart protocol are supported by the Selfloops Fitness app.
To enable the Bluetooth Smart transmision you should use the “Virtual Run” profile in your device. This profile has been created for running on a treadmill (it also broadcasts pace and cadence via Bluetooth), but it can be used for any activity you want.
This feature is supported on most of the 2019/2020 models.At the moment, the supported watches are the Garmin Forerunner 245, Forerunner 945, Fenix 6 Series. Please check the Garmin support website for the latest updates.
On Tuesday 28 April at 19.00 Italian time (6pm in London, 1pm New York, 10am San Francisco, 2pm Rio de Janeiro) the professional cyclist Marco Benfatto will train in Live Streaming in a session open to all amateur and pro cyclists.
The initiative will be carried out using the latest innovative Selfloops Streams platform that allows users to live streaming their video and performance during a training session.
All participants will be able to stream their heart rate and view their data during the event, thus comparing themselves with the other athletes and enthusiasts in the session.
In these lockdown weeks it is very important for a professional cyclist, as well as for an amateur, to maintain a state of form with targeted workouts at home. This is why the Bardiani CSF Faizanè team, in collaboration with Selfloops, has decided to organize a live training session led by the professional athlete Marco Benfatto.
Participation to the event is totally FREE, to register simply follow the instructions at this LINK.
To take part in the session you need an indoor bike or a trainer and a Bluetooth heart rate monitor. If you do not have them, you can just watch the session. This first session has been designed by Marco to be suitable for all levels of preparation and training.
The event will be the first in a series of live events organized by SELFLOOPS.
