Introducing the Pulses App: Real-Time Group Heart Rate Monitoring for Coaches and Teams

In today’s competitive sports landscape, real-time data is essential for optimizing athletic performance. The Pulses app is specifically designed to meet this need by providing coaches with a streamlined way to monitor multiple athletes' heart rates in real time. With compatibility across most Bluetooth heart rate monitors, the Pulses app makes it easy to capture, review, and analyse heart rate data during training, ensuring that each athlete performs within their ideal heart rate zone for their exercise type and fitness level.



Why We Created the Pulses App

While many group heart rate monitor apps exist, most lack the ability to sync data to a central platform, limiting the utility of the data post-workout. This gap led us to create the Pulses app, ensuring that heart rate data doesn’t just vanish after a session. Instead, coaches can access and analyse this valuable information through the Athlete Analyzer platform. By integrating real-time heart rate tracking with in-depth post-session analytics, coaches can make informed decisions on training adjustments, recovery needs, and exercise intensity levels.


How to Use the Pulses App

Getting started with the Pulses app is straightforward. Once downloaded, log in to your existing coach account or start a free trial. Connect each athlete’s Bluetooth heart rate monitor to the app, allowing it to capture their heart rate data instantly. The app displays each athlete’s heart rate in real time, which coaches can monitor throughout the session, adjusting training as needed to stay within target heart rate zones.


Each session's data is stored and easily accessible, making it easy to review individual or group heart rate trends. This feature is particularly valuable for understanding an athlete’s endurance, recovery, and overall cardiovascular health over time. Whether you're focusing on maintaining an athlete's heart rate zone for endurance building or monitoring peak heart rates during intense exercises, Pulses ensures you have the data to back up your coaching decisions.

Compatibility

The Pulses app is designed to work with almost all common Bluetooth heart rate monitors, ensuring compatibility and ease of use for both individual athletes and team environments. Popular brands such as Garmin, Polar, and Cospoo are fully supported, allowing coaches to integrate existing equipment without needing to invest in new hardware. This compatibility ensures that whether you’re using a Garmin or Polar monitor, or other widely available Bluetooth devices, the Pulses app captures heart rate data reliably and accurately.


By supporting a wide range of devices, Pulses also enables flexibility for athletes, as they can connect their preferred heart rate monitors, knowing their data will sync seamlessly. 


From gym-based team training to individualized heart rate tracking for solo athletes, Pulses offers a smooth setup process, making it easy to start monitoring heart rates and optimizing training in minutes.


The Pulses app is designed to work seamlessly on both iPhone and iPad, giving coaches and athletes flexibility in how they monitor heart rate data. Whether you’re using an iPhone for convenient, on-the-go tracking or an iPad for a larger display, Pulses adapts to your device of choice, delivering the same reliable and responsive experience.


Unlock New Levels of Performance with the Pulses App

By integrating real-time heart rate monitoring with in-depth training analytics, the Pulses app is redefining how coaches track, manage, and optimise athlete performance. Whether you’re a coach in a gym setting or managing a team of athletes, Pulses provides an unmatched group heart rate monitor experience that’s tailored for precision and performance.


Monitor Pulses on a Larger Screen for Enhanced Group Training

One of the features of the Pulses app is its ability to be displayed on a larger screen, such as a TV in the training location. By mirroring the app on a bigger display, athletes can easily see their own heart rate and compare it with others in real-time. This shared view brings a dynamic and interactive element to the session, motivating athletes to stay within their target zones or push their limits alongside their teammates.


Having a visual representation of each athlete’s heart rate also adds a fun, competitive edge to group training. Athletes can track their progress throughout the workout, making the session both engaging and performance-focused. This setup transforms any training environment into an interactive, data-driven experience that supports team-building while improving individual performance.
