It’s about making smarter decisions, personalising the process, and delivering real results. That only happens when you can measure what matters and track it over time. **Pod1um** gives coaches the tools to capture meaningful performance and wellness data, making it easy to monitor progress, adjust training, and keep athletes on track whether you're working 1-on-1, in a team setting, or remotely. --- ### All the metrics that matter built in With Pod1um, every session or exercise can be assigned a specific performance metric. This ensures consistency in tracking, better communication with your athletes and more accurate insights for programming. You can choose from: #### **Core performance metrics:** - **Reps** - **Distance** / **Distance (long)** - **Speed** - **Tempo** - **Time** - **Power** - **Force** - **Weight** - **Effort** - **Heart Rate % (HR%)** - **RPM** - **Energy (Kcal)** Each of these metrics can be set as targets during session planning and logged directly by athletes via the Pod1um mobile or tablet app. --- ### Advanced strength & conditioning inputs Go beyond the basics with metrics designed for coaches who care about precision: - **%e1RM (Estimated 1-rep max):** Assign loads based on training percentages without constant testing - **RIR (Reps in Reserve):** Monitor perceived effort and fatigue levels for smarter auto-regulation - **AMRAP (As Many Reps As Possible):** Easily program intensity tests, volume benchmarks, or challenge sets These advanced tools allow you to track load progression, manage fatigue and individualise training more effectively than ever. --- ### Intervals: build smarter sessions, not just sets With Pod1um’s **Intervals** feature, coaches can go beyond basic sets and reps. You can create structured blocks of work and rest perfect for conditioning, rehab, team drills, or energy system development. Set: - **Work & rest durations** (e.g. 10s work, 20s rest), or **distances** (e.g. 100m run, 30s rest) - **RPE, HR% or other effort metrics** for each phase - **Reps and sets** for full control over training volume - **Passive or active recovery**, depending on the goal All of this is integrated directly into the training flow no external templates or separate tools required. --- ### Wellness, readiness, and progress assessments Performance isn’t just what happens under the bar or on the field. Pod1um lets coaches track what happens in between: - **Custom questionnaires:** Create daily or weekly check-ins - **Flexible response types:** Sliders, star ratings, yes/no, multi-choice, free text, even video/image uploads - **Track trends:** Sleep, soreness, fatigue, mood, stress and more Coaches can flag red zones, prevent burnout, and keep the conversation going between sessions. --- ### Smarter coaching, stronger results Pod1um is more than just a delivery tool. It’s a complete coaching intelligence system helping you plan smarter, monitor better, and grow your coaching impact. Whether you're building strength, tracking fitness, or managing recovery, the data you collect on Pod1um works with you not against you. --- ### Start using Pod1um’s advanced metrics today **Create your free account** and start tracking the data that drives performance.
