Telemetry

Heart Rate Telemetry

    
 

At Ride Inside you will be training with state of the art Heart Rate Telemetry, this software takes readings of your heart rate through the use of Suunto heart rate reading device and then sends it back to data that is analysed and recorded to show you real time how you are performing.

This data at the conclusion of a session will be collated and a report is available to show you your daily performance, weekly and all your long terms training sessions. This technology takes the guess work out of your training and is so simple and non intrusive like normal lactate testing normally is.
 

Ride Inside is the only facility to be operating this software for cyclists in Australia and the results that it has given our cyclists at any level, from weight loss to elite level is amazing.

 

Heartbeat analysis

Firstbeat Technologies Ltd. has developed a revolutionary analysis technology that provides comprehensive information about various functions and states of the human body on the basis of heartbeat measurement.

The heart can provide a vast amount of information about our body because heart rate is constantly adjusting, from beat to beat, to meet the demands of our everyday life. For this reason, heart rate is never constant - the time difference between two consecutive heartbeats changes from beat to beat. This variation is called heart rate variability, HRV.

Firstbeat's analysis technology is based on recognition of different bodily reactions from heart rate and heart rate variability. For example, the following essential bodily functions affect the heartbeat:

  • Inhalation and exhalation, control of breathing
  • Hormonal reactions
  • Metabolic processes and energy expenditure
  • Autonomic nervous system adjustment
  • Physical activity, exercise and recovery from physical activity
  • Movement and changes in posture/li>
  • Cognitive processess and mental load
  • Stress reactions, relaxation and emotional reactions

The solution can be compared to a graphics engine that performs calculations on the basis of Newtonian physics: Starting from heartbeat data, the Firstbeat engine computes and creates a digital model of the human body by performing realistic calculations about bodily states according to general physiological principles of the body's functions
