Your training plan has been upgraded. The engine now uses science-based block lengths, a pre-block base building phase, and experience-level pacing. Run through setup again to rebuild your plan with all the new options.
📅
New: Smarter schedule builder. Tell us your preferred long run day, rest days, and total training days. Your plan will be built around your life, not a generic template.
💪
New: Personalised strength training. Tell us your gym goal, experience level, and any injury concerns. Your sessions will be built specifically for you.

Training Load (ATL · CTL · TSB)
CTL: Fitness
42-day exponential average of your daily training load. Think of it as your long-term fitness base. It builds slowly and reflects how much consistent work you have done over the past 6 weeks.
ATL: Fatigue
7-day exponential average of your daily training load. It spikes quickly after hard training and drops fast during rest. High ATL means your body is currently under load.
TSB: Form
TSB = CTL minus ATL. It tells you if you are fresh or tired right now. Positive means you are rested and ready. Negative means fatigue is outpacing fitness.
How load is calculated
Each session is given a Training Load Score based on distance multiplied by a session type multiplier (easy x1.0, long x1.2, tempo x1.8, intervals x2.0, fartlek x1.5, race x2.5) and adjusted for your logged effort. Strength sessions score a flat 12. This score is summed per day, then fed into the rolling averages above.
💪 Fitness (CTL) vs Fatigue (ATL) - training load over time ?
An A race rebuilds your training plan around this date, distance, and goal time. B and C races are saved and shown on your plan, but don't change the training block.
