uPulse - BodyScoring Fitness Assessment Platform

Designed a tablet-first fitness assessment experience that turns physical tests into clear performance insights, helping coaches personalize training and track client progress.

Year :

2016 -2017

Industry :

Health & Sport

Client :

Upulse

Project Duration :

1 year

Problem

Fitness coaches and health professionals lacked a standardized, fast, and visual way to assess clients’ physical condition and translate results into actionable training programs.

Existing processes were fragmented:

  • Manual tests

  • Disconnected tools

  • Hard-to-read results

  • No clear scoring system for clients

This made progress tracking difficult and reduced client engagement.

Goal

Design a digital BodyScoring platform that enables coaches to:

  • Run complete fitness assessments

  • Visualize results instantly

  • Generate clear performance scores

  • Personalize training intensity

  • Track client progress over time

All within a simple, structured, and professional interface.

Users

Primary:

  • Fitness coaches

  • Personal trainers

  • Sport & health professionals

Secondary:

  • Gym members / clients (indirect users via results)



My Contribution

Research & User Needs

  • Field observations in gyms

  • Interviews with coaches

  • Mapping assessment workflows

  • Identifying friction points during testing sessions

Outcome: a clear understanding of real-world constraints (time pressure, device usage, environment noise).

UX Architecture

Designed the full workflow:

  1. Client selection

  2. Test category choice (cardio, strength, balance, stretch, stress…)

  3. Test execution

  4. Automatic scoring

  5. Results visualization

  6. Profile summary

Focus:

  • Minimal cognitive load

  • Linear flow

  • Tablet-friendly interactions

  • Fast access to critical data

Wireframes → UI V2

  • Built low-fidelity wireframes to validate flows quickly

  • Defined scoring logic and visual hierarchy

  • Created a color-based system to represent performance levels

  • Designed dashboards showing test results, progress, and profiles

Each test category received its own color code to improve readability and decision-making speed.

Design System

  • Neutral dark UI for professional environments

  • Strong contrast for gym lighting conditions

  • Clear color semantics:

    • Very low → Very high performance

    • Dedicated colors per test type (cardio, strength, balance, etc.)

The system helps coaches instantly interpret results without reading numbers.


Impact

The final product allows professionals to:

  • Increased client motivation through clear BodyScoring results and progress visualization

  • Improved member retention by creating personalized coaching journeys

  • Enabled fitness centers to monetize assessments via paid coach sessions

  • Standardized fitness evaluations across locations

  • Strengthened client–coach relationships through data-driven training programs

uPulse transforms raw physical tests into clear, actionable insights.
