Tracking Performance Metrics

Jakob Ingebrigtsen's training philosophy revolves around meticulous tracking of performance metrics. In our previous blog, Inside the Training of Jakob Ingebrigtsen, he emphasized the importance of data-driven training:

"There are so many features in the app. Having the ability to dig deeper and collect data...There is no ceiling to what you can find and that is quite cool."

Easy Data Analysis - COROS Training Hub

Jakob's PACE 3 also seamlessly syncs with the COROS Training Hub to further refine performance. The Training Hub is a free comprehensive data analysis platform designed to provide athletes with deeper insights into their training and racing metrics.

"COROS products make it easier for me to collect data, and the app gives me easy access to analyze it."

COROS makes training data easily accessible for all athletes. Along with the easy-to-read graphs, COROS provides a free coaching service to help analyze training data.

Heart Rate Monitoring (HRM)

Alongside the COROS PACE 3 is the COROS Heart Rate Monitor, a comfortable device worn around the bicep to accurately track heart rate during exercise. Real-time heart rate data helps Jakob stay within targeted zones for various workouts, ensuring he trains effectively without overtraining.

"With the new heart rate monitor, it's quite a big improvement. The last few years I haven't worn a chest strap due to irritation and it being annoying...But the bicep strap is easy and I forget I even have it on. It's quite the bonus."

Success on the Biggest Stage

Jakob's use of the COROS PACE 3 was instrumental in his gold medal win at the Paris 2024 Olympics in the 5000 meters. This achievement highlights the effectiveness of his data-driven approach to training and racing.
