- Select “Save”
- This screen will update every 30 seconds to keep the competition up to date.
Filtering Loads in Leaderboard
- To keep data clean and relevant in your competitions, you may want to filter out warmup sets, max sets, or just keep the competition to a specific load, or percentage of RM.
- To do this, click on the "Filter" button in the top left of the screen
- You will now see additional filters for both "Weight" and "%RM"
- Enter in your desired weight range for this competition, hit save, and the leaderboard will update
- OR
- Enter in your desired percentage of 1RM range, hit save, and the leaderboard will update
- You can also create filters for any combination of these parameters
- Filtering loads by weight and/or %RM enables you to keep your competitions relevant and your weight room flowing seamlessly.
Streaming a Competition in the Weight Room
- The leaderboard function is accessible via the Web App.
- In order to stream the leaderboard to one or multiple weight room TVs, connect a computer to the TVs via a chrome cast, AirPlay, HDMI cord or any other streaming option.
- Results update every 30 seconds, let the competition commence!
- Because the competitions are hosted on a web page, if you want to create multiple competitions at once, all you need to do is open up a new tab in your browser and stream this tab to a different TV. This can be really useful if you want different teams or lifting groups competing at the same time.
