WHAT IS SMARTCOACH?
The SmartCoach range of products is the reference for performance monitoring in strength training, being compatible with the widest range of training equipment from virtually any manufacturer: weight stack machines, free weights, isoinertial (flywheel) devices for eccentric training, etc. They are being used by elite professionals in sports and rehabilitation and by the top notch sport teams all around the World.
SmartCoach Mobile is the latest entry in the product portfolio, and brings the same concept and benefits - guided training and objective performance monitoring - in the palm of your hand!
PERFORMANCE UNDER CONTROL
When it comes to performance, it’s not the force or speed per se that counts, but their combination: power, i.e. the capability of expressing large force at high speed. For example, lifting the same load at twice the speed produces the same force but double of power in Watts.
That’s why power is the crucial parameter to measure during performance training and the variable to follow up to assess performance improvement. And that’s exactly what SmartCoach Mobile does!
HOW DOES IT WORK
The app works by connecting via Bluetooth to a tiny wireless sensor/encoder (SmartCoach Air) mounted on the training device. Different models of sensors exist, depending on the training device to be used:
- a wireless linear encoder (and, soon to be available, an accelerometer) for weight stack machines and barbells, or
- a dedicated wireless encoder for isoinertial (flywheel) devices of any compatible manufacturer – check out with out the list of recommended brands
The sensor measures power and sends it to your mobile for real-time display and feedback.
We strive to constantly expand the range of compatible training devices, so you can use your SmartCoach Mobile with your preferred machines!
MONITORIZE YOUR STRENGTH SESSION
SmartCoach Mobile lets you choose the exercise from a library of over 150 different types an set an optional target. During training, it measures and displays in real-time the developed power on an intuitive bar graph. If a target is set, the app also guides you in developing the correct amount of power, without overreaching or decreasing in performance.
All of your training sessions are logged, allowing you to track improvements over time in the most objective and scientifically sound manner. No more guess work!
Advanced settings even allow choosing if you want to control the concentric (lifting) or eccentric phase or whether you want to display the concentric phase only, or both.
INTO ECCENTRIC TRAINING?
Finally, a dedicated mode targeted mainly to flywheel exercise, offers the possibility of training with given eccentric overload, i.e. expressing more power during the muscle lengthening action. Eccentric training proved to have beneficial effects in terms of increasing muscle performance and resilience to muscle injury.
Flywheel equipment produce resistance by virtue of a spinning mass, such as a large metal disc or a rotating cone. They have known benefits over conventional weight training such as variable and adapted resistance and ease of generation of eccentric overload; however, they are almost worthless without a dedicated feedback system to measure the exerted power and the eccentric/concentric ratio.
But wait no more, since a decade of experience in developing feedback tools for flywheel training has now been squeezed into SmartCoach Mobile!
GO PRO!
Of course, if you decide to make a further leap and get any other SmartCoach product, such as the SmartCoach Pro to monitor and manage an entire training facility, you can export your previous training data from your mobile to the desktop application.
