Which one is for you
- You only ride indoors, on structured workouts: a cycling-only app can do.
- You only run: a running app can do.
- You train in more than one sport, want your plan to move by itself the moment anything changes, and want a coach you can talk to: ownathlete.
Why ownathlete
The whole coach, nothing held back. It reads your whole record every time, moves your plan by itself, plans at least 21 days ahead and answers as fully as you need. Talk to it as much as you like: there’s no message count, only a monthly usage ceiling set well above normal use.
Calm, not chatty. It doesn’t message you after every session; you come to your coach, and it has already read everything. Every day keeps what you were asked beside what you did, so your coach sees patterns no single day shows. Try it free for 14 days.
