How Indoor Cycling works in SkillScorer

Score

Each trainer in a studio is scored on the Indoor Cycling skills in the Skills Matrix: tap a cell, type a score, and it saves itself.

Compare

Rank trainers, compare two side by side, or compare your studios against each other to see exactly where the strengths and gaps are.

Track

Scores are kept year after year, so you can see who is improving and which Indoor Cycling skills need attention. Reports also follow each senior trainer's studio.

Every trainer is scored from 1 to 10 on each skill (1 = Poor, 5 = Average, 10 = Elite), one studio and year at a time. Scores autosave in the Skills Matrix, and the 18 built-in reports turn them into rankings, radar charts, skill gaps and year-on-year trends.

Which levels come with Indoor Cycling?

Can I change the Indoor Cycling skills and wording?

Yes. The skills, levels and labels are all editable per organisation. In fitness & wellness the app talks about trainers, studios and senior trainers, and you can change any of those words too.
