Coach Remote Coaching |
|
For over ten years, PC Coach software has been a valuable
training tool for coaches and athletes. Now, it's even more
valuable with the RCS feature — Remote Coaching Service.
We developed this feature to allow coaches and trainers to
communicate quickly and easily, via email, with their athletes
and clients. Coaches can now have immediate and frequent access
to valuable training data that can help assess a client's
condition and performance. |
|
How does
it work?
The coach creates a schedule of workouts and uses
RCS to send those workout recommendations via email
to the client. The client receives the workouts
as an email attachment. Opening the attached file
automatically opens PC Coach and places those workouts
onto their calendar. After completing the workouts,
the client then uses RCS to send their actual workout
data back to the coach. The completed workout file
will include all data including the heart rate graph
if the athlete is using a downloadable heart rate
monitor, as well as graphs of cycling speed and
optionally cadence for athletes using the S710 or
S510! The coach sees everything that the athlete
sees and can then use that data to fine-tune the
training program.

This feature has also turned
out to be a real convenience for our individual customers
who have one computer at home and another at the office!
RCS allows customers to keep their training data current
on multiple computers with just a quick email. This
is especially beneficial for Polar S410 and S510 owners.
Because the S410 and S510 can only download the most
recent workout (the five previous workouts are stored
in summary form and the data can only be retrieved
manually), a customer who cycles to work can download
his or her data there and be ready to capture new
workout data for the ride home. Then just send each
of those workout files, via RCS, to the other computer
and they are both up-to-date.
RCS may even be the easiest way to transfer all of
your data to a new computer, when that time comes.
Install PC Coach on the new computer and then email
years of historical training data to yourself on the
new machine.
Whether
you're a coach, you're being coached, or you're a
PC Coach customer trying to take full advantage of
all of the software's features, RCS is a powerful
tool for you!
