* Energy expenditure
* Training impulse

WHICH PERFORMANCE METRICS CAN TEAMHR TRACK?

TeamHR can track real-time heart rate and GPS location which are used to calculate the performance metrics:
* Relative training effort
* Energy expenditure
* Distance
* Pace

HOW MANY PLAYERS CAN TEAMHR TRACK DURING A TRAINING SESSION?

TeamHR is limited to the number of internet peers supported by your local WiFi router, and a maximum team size of 100 players. In general, the TP-Link M7450 Mobile WiFi Router we use in our testing can support up to 32 peers simultaneously (ie. 1 iPhone running TeamHR plus 31 Apple Watches running TeamWatch).
