Concept2 Live Team Workouts

Post by Liamrowsalot » July 25th, 2021, 4:35 pm

I'm working on a webapp called ergsync.com that allows you to connect your concept2 machine via bluetooth, schedule and join live group workouts, and track you and your team's progress over time. I started this project because i found that my college teammates and I didn't keep up with training over break, so I wanted to create a tool that helped us do that. With Ergsync, you can schedule team workouts, join live workouts and see you and your teams erg data in real time.

Currently you'll need google chrome on a computer, and a pm5 monitor to sync your erg to the web. I'm working on a mobile application, but for now it's just on web. I'm open to any kind of feedback or feature suggestions you have, just let me know.

I guess its a great idea if your into the coding for practice, but its pretty pointless end product otherwise, just use RowPro.

There is hardly anyone using RowPro and its been around over 10 years. Concept 2 just brought ErgRace online and you could use that and its free but again basically hardly anyone using it at this stage.

Just use ErgData, everyone upload their results to the Concept 2 online logbook and make your mates your training partners and anyone can see their individual results online.

Sounds like a lot of development time and effort and essentially nobody will use it, no point re-inventing the wheel.

Save yourself the time, spend it rowing instead.
