ATLANTA (BRAIN) — Fitness app and product maker Wahoo Fitness has added the TICKR X heart rate monitor to its workout wearable line.
The TICKR X captures workout metrics including heart rate, calorie burn and duration in device-free mode and auto-syncs the data to a smartphone following activity, ideal for high-intensity workouts where carrying a phone is not an option.
When used in online mode with a phone, the TICKR X also has advanced motion analytic capabilities and can capture indoor cycling cadence, with plans to add more activities in the future. Athletes can then upload their TICKR X workouts to more than 50 of the most popular fitness apps, including Runkeeper, Strava, MapMyFitness and Cyclemeter/Runmeter.
TICKR X pairs with iOS and Android smartphones (device-free sync and motion analytics coming soon to Android) as well as other fitness devices. It is available now at WahooFitness.com and in specialty run retailers for $99.99.
