Coach Walkthrough

Your First Week
Starts With One Session.

Paste a session you've already written, publish it, invite your athletes — they log it on their phones. The season plan can wait.

Example squad and example data throughout — nobody's real athletes.

01 · Your first session

Open a session and paste it

Start from a session you've already written. Paste the text — or up to ten photos of the sheet — and it comes back as editable sets, each exercise checked against your library. Save a rule for how you write, and later parses follow it.

Scripted example: Parse shows a result written in advance. No AI runs on this page.

02 · Edit and publish

Adjust it, then publish

Change sets by hand, or tell the assistant what changed — a shorter slot, a wet track. It proposes the edit on the session itself, and nothing changes until you approve it. Publish the session and every athlete on that group's roster gets it.

03 · Your squad

Invite your athletes

Invite athletes by email straight into a group. Subgroups — short sprints, long sprints, whatever you use — tag athletes and individual exercises, so one session can hold different work for each.

3a

Invite athletes

Type an email, pick the group. The athlete gets an invitation to join it.

Organize by subgroup

Tag athletes to a subgroup and tag individual exercises to one — that per-exercise tag is what changes the work an athlete opens, so one session can hold different work for your short and long sprinters.

04 · On the track

Athletes log it on their phone

Athletes open the session in the browser and tick off sets as they go, typing a time where one is asked for. Each athlete sees only the work tagged for their subgroup. On a Freelap rep they type each split, and the total and each split's speed fill in for them.

9:41

Shown as Sarah Chan, short sprints. The 150 m reps tagged for the long sprinters aren't on her screen. Her coach split the 30 m starts every 10 m and switched them to Freelap. Type set 3's splits to see the table fill in.

05 · Later: the season

Plan the cycles later

Once sessions are running, lay out the rest of the season. Give it a name and two dates and it lays out the training blocks and the empty weeks; phases, weeks and races then sit side by side — click a phase to see its weeks, and a week to see its sessions.

06 · Later: the month

See the month, copy a week forward

Your dashboard is the month: every session on its day, with its exercises and subgroup tags. When a week works, copy it onto up to twelve later weeks — alongside what's there, or replacing it.

See what happened

Every finished session stays in the athlete's history. Sprints recorded with per-split timing also land in split charts, measured against sprint standards.

Their history

What an athlete sees under History: each finished session by month — what it was, how many exercises and sets. A session they logged on their own, with no plan behind it, is listed like any other.

Tell it once

Say a preference to an assistant while you're planning. It keeps it, and applies it the next time you plan with that assistant.

You type, once

“Rest for block starts is always four minutes, never less.”

Next session you plan

It prescribes 4:00, without being asked again — and if you change your mind, you say that instead and it takes the new rule.

This reaches the planning assistants and Ask. It does not reach the photo parse, which reads each sheet on its own. There is no screen yet that lists what it has kept — that one is still to be designed, and it is the part we most want a coach's opinion on.

Did the plan work?

Coming next — in design, not in the product yet. Tell us what you think.

Volume adherence drops from 97% → 87% over the mesocycle. Is this by design (planned taper) or did load accumulate faster than athletes could absorb?

Gym strength gains lead sprint PB improvements by roughly 2 weeks in this group. If true across more mesocycles, load peaking should move earlier in the cycle.

AI Coach Insight
Context-aware

SPP week 3 summary: Sprint load hit 87% of plan, gym volume was 120% of prescribed. Your 72-hour rule was breached Tuesday → Wednesday (max sprints).

Recommendations

  • →Insert a deload microcycle before SPP wk 4, or
  • →Redistribute gym intensity (currently front-loaded Mon-Wed)
  • →Marcus Wong's RPE pattern suggests he's accumulating fatigue faster than the group avg — consider individual load cap

Grounded in your coaching philosophy: “never compromise recovery for volume in SPP” + session summaries from the past 6 weeks.
