Training plans are everywhere - online templates, PDFs, and printed books promise to take you from the couch to a marathon in 12 weeks. But here’s the truth:

No two runners are the same. So why should their training plans be?

The Problem with One-Size-Fits-All Plans

Static training plans have long been the standard. They offer simplicity: run X days per week, with specific distances or workouts on fixed days. But real life doesn’t fit into a fixed grid.

  • What if you get sick?
  • What if you can’t train on Thursdays anymore?
  • What if your recovery needs are different from what’s assumed?

These rigid plans don’t adapt. And more often than not, that leads to:

  • Overtraining or undertraining
  • Missed sessions and frustration
  • Plateaus in performance
  • Even injury

Athletes Deserve More Than a Spreadsheet

Modern runners are looking for flexibility, personalization, and insights - not guesswork. You wouldn’t wear someone else’s shoes to race, so why follow their training plan?

Athletes deserve:

  • Plans that adapt to their energy levels and schedule
  • Workouts that respond to progress, not just a calendar
  • Coaching that learns over time and evolves

That’s where TrenoAI comes in.

What Makes TrenoAI Different?

TrenoAI is an AI-powered training assistant built for real life. From day one, you’ll create a detailed athlete profile: your goals, history, schedule, preferences, and limitations. Then TrenoAI builds a plan just for you - and constantly adjusts it.

✅ Got injured? Your plan changes.
✅ Missed a session? We’ll rebalance the week.
✅ Had a breakthrough run? Your next workouts will scale.

All of this happens thanks to conversational AI, LLMs, and adaptive planning.

Connect. Adapt. Perform.

TrenoAI doesn’t work in isolation. It connects with Strava, Garmin, Suunto, and more. That means every run, ride, or swim you record helps shape the next steps.

Every plan becomes alive - a living document that grows with you.

It's Time to Train Smarter

Static plans served a purpose - in an era before technology could listen, learn, and adapt. But that time is over. You don’t need more discipline. You need better guidance.

Let’s build a plan that moves with you, not against you.
