## What is BeatBurn Indoor Cycling Trainer?

Get leaner, get faster, get stronger!  Push harder and feel better than you ever thought possible with custom cycling workouts from lolo!

BeatBurn Indoor Cycling combines lolo's exclusive beat-sync technology with guidance from a real cycling coach, changing the beat of your music to match your pace within a training program specifically designed to take you to the next level without burning you out.

Beat-sync analyzes the BPM (Beats Per Minute) of your music, selects the best songs from your playlist to fit the intensity of your workout, then changes the beat on the fly, perfectly matching your pace.

Why does this matter? How does it help you? Research shows that music distracts the brain during exercise and faster music causes people to accept and even prefer a greater degree of effort. This means:

• You will work harder without trying (or without even feeling the difference)
• You will get better results from the increased effort

• And most importantly, the time will fly by.

FEATURES

• beat-sync shifts the tempo of your music to match your pace.

• Includes 12 tracks of high-energy music! 

• A real voice guides and motivates you through your workouts – not a scary computer voice.

• Fill out your profile and BeatBurn designs the perfect program.

• Your program progresses, every day is a new challenge.
• Adjust your workout at anytime using the interactive graph.

• Sync your workouts to the Health app.
• Compatible with most bluetooth heart rate monitors.
• Track your history and share your progress through social media.

BEAT-SYNC

There's nothing quite like the feeling of moving to the beat of your favorite song. That Saturday Night Fever strut? (YouTube it, kids) We wanted to have that feeling during every workout, so we built BeatBurn to dynamically change the beat of YOUR music to perfectly match your pace. Trust us, your workouts will feel easier even though you're actually working harder and burning more calories.  

SMART PLAYLIST
BeatBurn continuously analyzes your workout and picks the best songs to drive you through a great workout. 


INTERACTIVE PERSONAL TRAINER

BeatBurn features an interactive personal trainer whose voice guides you through each workout, giving you the tips you need to get the most out of your workout and the motivation to keep going no matter how tough it gets. BeatBurn gives you complete control as you move through your workout. Turn the intensity down a bit when you're struggling or crank it up when you're ready for more, and your trainer adjusts your workout - and your music - on the fly.

### 5/5 — Excellent.

*2020-01-25, version 3.1.8*

Like having your own personal spin coach.

### 4/5 — Love it

*2018-12-20, version 3.1.8*

I really enjoy using this app.  My bike does not have a numbered dial so I just start with level 1 being the smallest amount of resistance and increase the resistance directed.  When the resistance gets very heavy I stand up and pedal.  You just have to make it work for you.  I love that I can use my own music and app adjusts the beat accordingly.  His is the best at home indoor cycling app I have found.

### 3/5 — Nice spin bike up - needs upgrades

*2018-05-29*

Love the simplicity of the app and the training program choices.  Would be nice to show if an upcoming interval was going to ask you for more speed or resistance.  Need to finally upgrade the app to communicate with more apps, heart rate trackers, sensors, Garmin watches etc.

### 1/5 — Annoying voiceover

*2017-12-29, version 3.1.8*

You can’t stop the voiceovers. Happens every time - a minute of a stupid person explaining basics. Have asked for a fix or a refund. Very rudimentary app.

### 1/5 — Very basic

*2017-10-04, version 3.1.8*

I want to work out, we’re your out of the saddle as well as sitting, 
I want to see the work out before trying. 
Disappointed with this. 
Women’s voice very annoying.

### 4/5 — Excellent if you don't seek perfection and want to save $thousands

*2017-06-16*

I've been exercising on a stationary bike for a numberof years and realized I had grown complacent. In seeking remidies I found this app and am so glad I did. It takes me through a nice interval trainiung there I work up a noticable sweat. I get to stretch mysel without risking my health. After a few weeks the programs are still quite varied and the voice coaching is very helpful, particularly the count-downs that tell me I'll be pusing for 60 seconds, 45, 30 etc. 

I use it wih a Wahoo heart rate monitor synced to the MotiFIT heart rate app which prvides  nice heart rate displays. I keep the MotoFIT open during the session and the BeatBurn runs in the background with the voice coaching and music. These are a nice combination.

The app is not technically perfect but for the price and cosnidering my real goal in a good workout vs. app Nirvana, it's a fine solution for me. Some of the quirks I've run into include the music beat. Doesn't seem always be consistant with my iTunnes music but that's ok. The app says it's synced to the heart rate monitor but it doesn't seem to affect the display. I asked the developer about it (who is very responsive). The center display is supposed to toogle with a tap but it doesn't seem to. That's ok because I use the MotoFIT app. 

What's that about saving thousands? I briefly looked into a Peleton and choked at the cost. Then I found this app that gives me a more than adequate workout. Maybe if I were in serious training and/or competition somethink like the Peleton woul be worthwhile. But I'm not. At 74 I just want a good workout for the time I spend. The BeatBurner does the trick while makeing the time go by nicely.

### 3/5 — Clever but has flaws

*2016-10-14, version 3.1.8*

It's decent. The voice instructions are way off sometimes. It'll tell you to speed up when the programme screen tells you the opposite.
It only has resistance numbers, so you'll be guessing if your bike has a tensioner with a turn dial. Importing your own music is cool, but it still speeds it up or slows it down to match the RPM of the programme. Overall it's ok, personally I think the developers aren't updating/improving it. It kind of does the job though. It's not worth the money though.

### 2/5 — Great but...

*2016-08-17*

I love this app and many in the Lolo line.  It provides a great workout and motivation. However, I do not understand why the app cannot run in the background!!  Especially when biking, I have another app that I like to keep open as my bike computer. The other app tells me my speed, cadence, distance, and heart rate. Why can't I listen to the prompts from the Lolo app while viewing my metrics and performance from another app???  Obnoxious.

### 4/5 — Apple Music integration needed

*2016-05-13, version 3.1.5*

It would be great if you guys could integrate Apple Music into the beat matching program. Is that possible?

### 5/5 — The absolute best

*2016-02-22*

This app has great variety in workouts, the ability to beat sync your music and use it in the background, and various fitness levels so you're not stuck at the same pace all the time.  I'm sure there's a ton of other benefits and features I can't think of right now, but I can say without a doubt, I use this app a lot.   
If you have a stationary bike that shows you your speed and resistance, then get this app!!
