PULSE Sport 4+

The First Holistic Athlete Management System.

Introducing PULSE, the personalised sports app that tracks both physical and mental health at the same time, providing athletes with a complete picture of their well-being & health.

PULSE is an innovative sports app that tracks both physical and mental health simultaneously. The app integrates data from the Health App on your device (using existing tools, e.g., Apple Watch, Garmin, Fitbit) to automatically track physical health metrics such as cardiovascular health, GPS data, and sleep. Simultaneously, mental health tracking is done through questionnaires filled out by the athletes, which include data on load, recovery, mood, and depression. More specifically, the following metrics are tracked:

Physical health:
• Cardiovascular Health: (Resting) Heart Rate, Heart Rate Variability, Heart Rate Zones, VO2 Max
• GPS data: speed, distance, cadence, power, elevation
• Sleep data
• Nutrition
• Injury & Illness
• Training load & ACWR

Mental health:
• Perceived Exertion (RPE)
• Physical & Emotional Recovery
• Mood & Positivity
• Social Relationships

Our algorithm combines/analyses all this data to provide athletes with a ''PULSE Score'' & associated recommendations. These help athletes know what to do next.

By tracking both physical and mental health, PULSE's tool provides athletes with a complete picture of their well-being, which allows for more practical & effective recommendations for performance maximisation, recovery improvement, & injury prevention.

PULSE's goal is to help athletes optimise their physical & mental health, leading to better performance and a lower risk of overtraining syndrome.
We empower athletes to know their limits, so they can overcome them.

>IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR THE USER

- PULSE relies on data from Apple Health, which is (notably) fed by Smart Watches like Apple Watch, Garmin, and Fitbit. Not having a smartwatch may result in less data for the PULSE app, leading to lower accuracy of the PULSE Algorithm. We recommend using a smartwatch for optimal accuracy.

- PULSE securely imports key health metrics from Apple Health to offer personalized health scores and reports, storing data in Firestore with strict user privacy, without external sharing. Users retain full control over their data, with options to manage data-sharing preferences directly through Apple Health settings, ensuring a commitment to user privacy and data autonomy.

- PULSE app provides general recommendations to enhance performance, improve recovery, and prevent injuries. These suggestions are not medical advice and should be used in conjunction with professional guidance. Consult a healthcare professional before making significant changes to your health routine. PULSE guides athletes in their journey, highlighting areas that need attention for informed decision-making.
