Tailored option

Want this built around you?

A plan follows a set path. If you want sessions adjusted to your week, your test results and how you respond, remote coaching does that. A lab test first gives you zones measured on you, not estimated.

FAQ

Common questions

Do I need a TrainingPeaks account?
Yes, but a free account is enough. The plan loads into your calendar and syncs to your watch or bike computer.
Which level should I choose?
Start is for athletes new to the distance or returning after a break. Develop suits regular training with a steady build. Perform is for experienced athletes chasing a time, and Podium for high-volume competitive age-groupers. If you are unsure, start lower.
Which version should I buy: heart rate, pace or power?
Choose heart rate if you train with a chest strap or watch, pace if you run with GPS and know your threshold pace, power if you have a power meter or smart trainer, and RPE if you prefer to train by feel. The price is the same.
Can I line the plan up with my race date?
Yes. When you load it in TrainingPeaks you set your race date and the plan finishes on that day.
Can a coach adjust it for me?
Plans are fixed. If you want sessions changed around your week and your results, look at remote coaching.
