Game-changing impact of JOHAN PACER

It's really easy and fast material to work with

The heart rate is integrated in the GPS system, so it's really easy to work with. Also, for reports I only need 5 minutes to make and interpret them.

Players are easily won over to use it

What I like about the PACER system is the integrated Bluetooth feature. I just connect my iPad to the Smarthub and start my live session.

I want to make our players as fit as possible

We use PACER because it has an integrated heart rate monitor. This means that we don't have to burden our players with an extra heart rate belt.
