AI COACH & HUMAN CONTROL

Guidance based on your assessment.

Paid plans include written AI Coach recommendations for training and nutrition, tailored to your results and goals.

Training guidance built around your goals.

Get personalized training zones and a weekly or monthly plan that divides your available time across five intensity zones. You or your coach choose workouts, training days, and exercise type, then update goals or availability anytime.

Nutrition targets built around your goals.

Get calorie and macronutrient targets based on your RMR assessment, goals and planned activity. AI Coach uses research-informed recommendations for protein, carbohydrates and fat, then updates targets as your goals or activity change.

Understand what CORE measures.

CORE measures oxygen, carbon dioxide and airflow. See how those measurements become insights into fitness, fuel use and resting metabolism.

HIIT

Compare live heart rate and VO₂ with your interval targets, helping you see how your body responds across hard efforts and recovery periods during high-intensity sessions.

Open Session

Use a brief session to review breathing response, oxygen use and heart-rate response at a selected pace or power, helping you judge the effort for an easier training day.

View O₂ pulse and ventilatory efficiency with the app’s metric scales. You or your coach interpret the live readings and decide how to adjust the session.
