Classical Pilates Technique is demanding
Now we can empirically measure the benefits

The work of Joseph Pilates has thrived for nearly 100 years. Traditional Pilates is practiced by millions, including Athletes, Sports Teams, Cirque du Soleil Performers, Martial Arts Professionals, Dancers, Boxers, Actors, and even Health and Physical Rehabilitation Centers.

Tracking Biometrics improves overall Physical Performance

Pilates Biometrics is the answer

What is Biometrics?

Through wearable monitoring devices, performance is recorded. Software turns the data into coherent information on your laptop or Tough Book that helps you adjust training and make game-time or active-mission decisions.

The software creates data reports with workout comparisons and between different practitioners.

Data reports are customizable and can export in different formats.

It’s changing the way we test ourselves.

Who uses this technology?

Biometric measurements are used by:

Professional and collegiate sports teams
Military and Defense organizations
First responders
National Government Institutions including: England, South Africa, Netherlands, Brazil and the United States.
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)

Activities Measured

Respiration Rate
Breathing rate per minute.

Activity
A measure of mechanical activity in Vector Magnitude Units (VMU) = VMU = 0.2 ~ walking 0.8 ~ jogging. At each 100Hz sampling point, the three axial accelerometer values are combined.

Posture
0°=vertical 90°=prone (lying face down) 180°=inverted -90°= supine (lying face up).

Physiological Intensity
Instantaneous index of effort based on heart rate.

Mechanical Intensity
Instantaneous index of effort based on acceleration.

Training Intensity
Average of physiological and mechanical intensity (above two parameters).

Physiological Load
Cumulative index of effort based on heart rate.

Mechanical Load
Cumulative index of effort based on acceleration.

Training Load
Average of physiological load and mechanical load (above two parameters).

Heart Rate Recovery
Drop in heart rate following cessation of activity.

Estimated Core Temperature
Determined by HR data – independently researched algorithm.

Anaerobic threshold
Heart Rate as percentage point of HR at anaerobic threshold.

Calories Burned
Cumulative estimation of calories burned during a session.

Estimated Core Temperature
Determined by HR data

Heart Rate Confidence
Expressed as %. Dependent upon wear detection, ECG amplitude & ECG noise level.
