How to add an exercise manually in Sports Cloud

This article explains how coaches and athletes can add an exercise manually in Firstbeat Sports Cloud with Manual Exercise Input when a session or workout could not be recorded. Sports Cloud estimates a training impulse (TRIMP) value from the duration and intensity you enter and creates a session for the exercise automatically.

Before you start

Manual Exercise Input requires Sports Premium or Sports Premium+.
The athlete must not have measurement data at the selected time.

Steps

Select the date and athletes. Log in to Sports Cloud at https://sports.firstbeat.com and select the date. Select the team to add the exercise for several athletes, or select one athlete.
Open Manual Exercise Input. Click the + button under the main chart and select Add manual exercise.

Enter the exercise details. In Details, enter the Date, Start time and Duration (hh:mm:ss). Optionally enter the Title, select the Sport and select the Type (Training, Game, Race or Rehab).
Screenshot: the Add manual exercise window with the Title, Sport, Date, Start time and Duration fields and the Type buttons.
Estimate the intensity. In Athlete training load, move the intensity slider from 1 to 10. The TRIMP field shows the estimate, and you can also enter the value directly.
