Often times it´s hard to tell. Especially in Functional Training it becomes very complex as there are many factors involved. Even if you use standard fitness trackers you don´t really get the juicy performance data. They are mostly guessing how you are performing during your workout.
Fitness trackers can roughly assume your calorie consumption and sometimes even count the repetitions as well as let you log your workout. But the most important factor is the actual resistance that you worked against and exactly how you did it.
Time under tension, weight velocity, peak resistance: powrlink Sensor records it all and gives you the complete data of each and every training session.
powrlink Sensor is an extremely compact device you can connect to your fitness equipment and which records and visualizes the force that is created during your workout. Simply hook it in-between the handle of a cable tower or other equipment and it’s go time! It continuously measures force data and shows it on your smartphone or tablet.
We made sure the powrlink Sensor is as small as possible so that you can take it wherever you want to go. It is so small that it fits into any pocket while offering load measurement of up to 120 kg. Designed and built in Germany.
For the first time, you can make complex movements measurable and adjust your training accordingly. powrlink Sensor measures every movement and shows you the current resistance, weight velocity, and your overall workload in easily understandable numbers and a live graph. Invaluable information will be right at your fingertips.
The resistance curve of every rep will show you how you are performing. Is it very steep? Maybe you should perform each rep slower. Do the peaks not reach the same height later in the workout? Then you are not producing as much force. powrlink Sensor gives you information that no other device can.
Compare against your previous sets live and see how far behind (or ahead) you are from your personal best. After the workout you can deep dive into analysis of every repetition of every set. Compare the peak resistance and weight velocity of your exercises and your total workload across the whole training session.
How do I connect powrlink to my smartphone/tablet?
Simply open the app and select the device that pops up. Done.
Can I use several powrlinks (maybe in a gym)?
Yes, of course. In the app, you can generate a unique QR Code for every powrlink. Just print it and every user that wants to connect to a specific powrlink can scan the QR Code with the app. In this way, you can switch between several machines and powrlinks during your workout and still accumulate the complete data without friction.
How do I charge powrlink?
powrlink can be charged with a standard Micro-USB cable. powrlink Sensor has a powerful LiPo battery and an advanced, low-energy architecture which enables over 7 days of active use on one charge.
Does it work with Android and iOS?
Yes, there is an app for each OS.
How much resistance can powrlink handle?
powrlink is optimized for up to 120 kg of peak resistance but has a much higher breaking point in order to provide a high safety margin.
What if I lose my smartphone/tablet? Will my workout data be lost?
No, all data is stored in the cloud and you will have full access to it from whatever device you sign in with.
Do I need two sensors if I train with two handles and separate resistances?
No. The powrlink App features a „x2“ option in the exercise selection. Simply connect powrlink with one handle and we assume that you move both arms with the same load (would look weird otherwise anyway ;-).
With which fitness tools can I potentially* use powrlink Sensor?
Suspension trainers, strength bands, rowers, sprint vests with resistance, cable towers, barbells (with accessories – tba), endless rope trainers, Keiser Functional Trainer, Stroops… basically anything with a carabiner to connect to.
*potentially – because you will need to ask the manufacturer if they allow to use the device with powrlink Sensor.
What are the limitations?
powrlink Sensor is not water resistant so please do not use it in the rain or damp conditions.
What else?
powrlink Sensor is a force measurement tool that also has a built-in accelerometer. At the moment, we do not show the acceleration data in the app. This will change in the future as we introduce more advanced features.
powrlink Sensor sends A LOT of data during active use. Some smart devices might slow down the graphical display or even crash. We are unable to test all smart devices on the market for compatibility.
