Personalized Training Plans: Running

What is it?

You know where you want to go, but what’s the best way to get there? Firstbeat offers a personal solution that tailors expert training advice to your individual needs. Creating your plan is as simple as selecting your target distance, entering your current best time at that distance, and desired training frequency. Daily running assignments are then automatically generated using a combination of your personal background data, fitness level, and training history. The result is a unique plan customized especially for you.

Once your plan is created, you will be able to see the total number of runs and number of days needed to reach your goals. The total estimated distance to be run over the course of the program is also displayed. These statistics are automatically updated along the way, making it easy to keep track of your progress. Each planned includes special guidance to help you stay on the right track. The calendar provides descriptions of the day’s run including duration, an estimate of the distance you will achieve, and insight into the impact goal of the session based on Firstbeat’s Training Effect.

Key benefits:

• Expert guidance tailored specifically for your needs and ambitions
• Removes the effort and guesswork from training planning
• Automatically updates based on your performances along the way
