Your plan is built around your goals, fitness and events, but you can tailor it further.

Swapping an exercise

  1. Open the exercise in your workout.
  2. Open the exercise's menu and tap Swap.
  3. Choose from Recommended swaps, or search all movements.
  4. Choose Just this workout or All workouts in block.

Swapping or moving a workout

  • Tap Swap on a workout to replace it with your own session or a ready-made one, such as from the Edge Playbook.
  • On the Plan tab, press and hold a session to move it, or tap Adjust plan.

Moving through training blocks

Your plan is built in blocks. Most blocks last 4 weeks, but some are shorter (for example in the run-in to a race) or a little longer. Near the end of each block, a check-in appears on your Today screen. It asks how training has gone and lets you update your 5km time, injuries, equipment, races and how many sessions you want. Your next block is built around your answers and your training data.

Bigger changes

To change your goals, schedule or races, use Adjust Plan in Settings (the cog on the You tab) > Training.

Requesting specific changes

For anything else, such as managing an injury or a specific request, open Settings (the cog at the top right of the You tab) and, under General, tap Speak to a coach (or Help & support, depending on your version of the app).
