Leveraging Wearables In The Water
Courtesy of WOWSA, Huntington Beach, California. Fares Ksebati leverages his experience and expertise as a masters swimming coach using modern technology.
Ksebati previously launched MySwimPro, a mobile fitness application that helps swimmers achieve their goals through personalized workouts, instructional videos and analytics.
In 2016, MySwimPro became the world’s first swimming app for Apple Watch. Apple soon named MySwimPro its best App of the Year for the Apple Watch.
“For 2017, we’re going to integrating different wearable devices including Garmin and Android Wear,” explains Ksebati about the app that offers a library of hundreds of workouts designed for the beginner to veteran swimmers while archiving the data of every workout.
