About

Pulse Studio HR

Features
Read full description

Pulse Studio supports your gym's group classes. The room TV shows effort in five zones, estimated calories and points. Use the app to get ready for class and review your results. Your gym needs to have Pulse Studio. During class, the heart rate monitor sends your heart rate to the room TV. IN YOUR LANGUAGE Choose Português or English in You → Account settings. Your language follows your account in the app and web dashboard. In the same section, choose light, dark or system appearance. Appearance is saved on your device. FOR MEMBERS • Reserve a heart rate monitor for the week's classes and follow the waitlist. • Check in with the TV's QR code or in the app and enter the monitor number. • Review points, estimated calories, heart rate, time in each zone and your position in each class. Share your results if you wish. • In PULSE Fight, follow rounds and recovery between them. • See your history, ranking and, when enabled by your gym, challenges and achievements. • In Group, post workout photos, like and comment. • Train solo: your phone reads a compatible heart rate monitor over Bluetooth and shows your zone, estimated calories and workout time. • Choose whether your name appears in the ranking. • In My progress, generate your progress report as PDF, Excel or JSON, for 30 days, 3, 6, 12 months or dates you choose, and share it. FOR INSTRUCTORS • Start and finish classes, check members in and add guests without accounts. • Follow the group's heart rate, percentage of maximum heart rate, zone and estimated calories live. • In personal trainer mode, follow up to 2 members on a phone or 4 on a tablet, subject to your network limit. • In Members, review heart rate history and positive answers to the Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire, PAR-Q. • In Members, open a member's profile, with their photo as the cover and the period's numbers, and export the progress report. Personal trainers export their network's members. FOR GYM MANAGERS • Create your manager account with the code received by email and the number on the TV box label, without health questions. • Follow join requests, monitors with low batteries and TVs without signal. • Manage members, schedules, zones, heart rate monitors and TVs. • Grant QR access with a role and time limit, pair the TV by QR code and check whether it is online. HOW NUMBERS ARE ESTIMATED • Maximum heart rate: the Tanaka formula, 208 − 0.7 × age. If exceeded for at least 10 seconds during class, it is adjusted upwards. • Zones: Z1 from 50% to 60%, Z2 from 60% to 70%, Z3 from 70% to 80%, Z4 from 80% to 90% and Z5 from 90% of your maximum. Below 50% is rest. Your gym can change these ranges. • Calories: the equation by Keytel et al. (2005), using heart rate, sex, weight and age; counted from 50% of maximum heart rate. • Points: time in each zone multiplied by the zone's points. The default per minute is 1 in Z1, 2 in Z2, 3 in Z3 and 4 in Z4 and Z5. Your gym can change these values. • Gym mode: screens show active calories, the energy spent above rest. • The formulas help compare effort between classes; they do not measure your body precisely. PRIVACY • Heart rate and PAR-Q require your consent, which you can revoke in the app. • Only you see your solo workouts; your gym has no access. • The camera scans QR codes and takes profile and Group photos when you choose. QR images are not stored or sent. • Delete your account in You → Data and rights or at https://pulsestudio.app.br/excluir-conta • Workout data is stored in Brazil. For people aged 16 or older. At 16 or 17, registration requires declaring that a legal guardian is aware of app use and heart rate measurement. Pulse Studio is not a medical device. Numbers are estimates for following your training. It does not diagnose, treat, cure or prevent diseases or medical conditions, and does not replace assessment by a health professional. If you have concerns about your health, consult a doctor.
