iTMP Technology Inc. Enables Innovative New Suite of Cardio and Cycling iPhone Apps ()
(Venice & Santa Barbara, California) -- Spinning, the worldwide
leader in indoor group cycling, has introduced the new
iSPINNING fitness application available on the Apple. iPhone App
Store. iSPINNING, free for a limited time only, is an innovative
new cardio and cycling application that compiles real-time data
for fitness tracking. iSPINNING is the first of a suite of
health and fitness apps enabled by iTMP Technology, a pioneering
developer of smartphone hardware and software applications.
For iPhone and iPod touch users interested in cutting edge
fitness applications, and for Spinning enthusiasts eager to
integrate their fitness data with Apples mobile computing
platforms, the new iSPINNING iPhone application is a
breakthrough in fitness tracking.
iSPINNING is an iPhone-based Spinning computer and cardio
fitness system that is compatible with leading fitness heart
rate transmitters and a growing list of other fitness sensors.
In addition to heart-related data, iSPINNING receives speed,
cadence, and power data from cycling sensors so users can track
cycling metrics from their road and mountain bikes too.
"For years the fitness industry has struggled with the
complexities of tracking and displaying fitness data in ways
that are appealing to the end user. iTMP has raised the bar with
their suite of iPhone apps that collect data from body and
equipment sensors to track and present it in a simple and usable
format," said John Baudhuin, CEO of Mad Dogg Athletics, Inc.,
creators of the Spinning indoor cycling program.
"While there are a handful of fitness apps for the iPhone, until
now none of them have incorporated real-time user data in their
calculations. With our wireless virtual bridge, SMHEART LINK,
we connect distributed health and fitness sensors to Apples
iPhone and iPod touch. In other words, we enable Apples
incredible mobile computers to double as heart monitors and
cycling computers," said Michael Williams, founder and CEO of
iTMP.
The iSPINNING application will run with simulated data so users
can see how the application will monitor and manage cardio
fitness metrics. Additional hardware, including iTMP's SMHEART
LINK, will be required to allow the app to listen to your
heart and your Spinner. bikes or outdoor bikes. SMHEART LINK
stores an entire workout's worth of data, compiling information
even while the iPhone app is interrupted by a call or if the
iPhone is not present. The result is an uninterrupted workout
profile that can be reviewed real-time during or after a
workout. iTMP's SMHEART LINK has a suggested retail price of
$149.95 and will be available for the holiday and resolution
seasons online at www.smHEARTlink.com, where users can also find
additional product information, accessories and receive updates.
Spinning's website, www.Spinning.com, will also carry SMHEART
LINK and Spinning's cadence sensor.
