Heart rate & zones
Resting HR trends, session peaks, and zone minutes mapped to the prescriptions in your block—not generic cardio goals.
Device layer
Wearables that respect your training block
Heart rate, sleep debt, and strain are not vanity metrics—they are guardrails. PULSE ingests what you already wear so coaches see load in context, not a wall of disconnected charts.
Signals we normalize
Raw exports are noisy. We smooth, tag sessions, and align timestamps to your program calendar so deload weeks and travel blocks stay honest.
Sleep & debt
Bedtime consistency and wake counts inform autoregulation prompts without shaming a single rough night.
Strain vs readiness
Vendor scores are translated into coach language: protect, push, or pivot—always with the raw series one tap away.
Connections & roadmap
- Apple Health (import)
- Garmin Connect (import)
- Oura / WHOOP-class rings (roadmap)
- CSV & FIT exports
- Webhook alerts (team tier)
Shipping order follows athlete demand—OAuth where vendors allow it, otherwise secure file import with clear field mapping.
One lane for hardware and habit
Devices are optional; discipline is not. When you connect wearables, we keep the surface area small: nightly sync, conflict resolution when sessions overlap, and coach-visible annotations when you override an automated readiness score.
- Session tagging for strength vs conditioning blocks
- Manual overrides with a one-line coach note
- Exports you can audit before sharing
Recovery is not a side app
Sleep duration, wake events, and morning HRV-style proxies roll into the same weekly review as your barbell work—so “I feel fine” and “the watch disagrees” both get a fair sentence in programming notes.
Privacy defaults
You choose which streams sync. Location and microphone data never enter PULSE for wearables ingestion. Delete device connections anytime; historical summaries anonymize after export windows you control.
Pair devices with a plan
Programs and coaching tiers spell out what syncs today versus what is coming—no surprise paywalls on the marketing site.
