Private drafts

Make an approach your own.

Begin with an existing runnable philosophy, then reshape its principles, training structure and voice through conversation. Your private draft is saved between visits.

Create your philosophy →
“I can run four days a week. Sunday is my long-run day, and I want to keep my Saturday ride.”

Ask for changes in your own words, replay the result against your history, then decide explicitly whether to publish and use it.

Start with fit

Look at the intended experience, weekly commitment and goal before choosing an approach.

Read the principles

See how training is organised, what the coach prioritises, and which rules are backed by evidence.

Make it your training

An approach supplies the rules. Your current fitness, actual sessions and feedback supply the context.
