Tell CoachCat what you want to get out of your riding and how many hours you have. Get a training plan built around both, starting today.
FasCat has coached endurance cyclists for 20+ years, from first-time gravel riders to national champions. We invented Sweet Spot training, the method that made structured base building work whether you have 6 hours a week or 16. CoachCat puts that coaching on your phone.
// WHAT COACHCAT DOES
• Builds your plan around you•
Training for a race, chasing a fitness number, or just want to get stronger on the bike. Tell CoachCat the goal and the hours you actually have, and it builds the plan. Not sure what your goal is? Answer a few questions and CoachCat will tell you what to work on. Road, gravel, mountain bike, cyclocross, multisport and more. Unlimited access to FasCat's 5-star plan library, with Sweet Spot base, intervals, strength training and everything in between.
• Adjusts the plan as your life changes•
Miss a week. Travel. Get sick. Change your goal. CoachCat reworks the plan instead of leaving you to catch up on your own. This is where most training plans fall apart, and it is the reason people quit them.
• Tells you what to do today•
Open the app and your workout is there, with the reason behind it. No deciding, no guessing, no building your own week. Just ride what it says.
• Coaches you after every ride•
Upload a ride and ask anything. Why your power faded in hour 3. Whether that interval set did what it was supposed to. What to change on Saturday. You get a straight answer built on your data, not a generic article.
• Knows when to push and when to back off•
CoachCat pulls sleep and HRV from your wearable and scores your recovery every morning. Green means go. Red means rest. Your plan responds to that instead of ignoring it.
• Handles the fueling•
FuelTrix™ reads the duration and intensity of every workout on your calendar and gives you a carbohydrate target in grams per hour, then converts it to bottles and gels. Plus meal plans and recipes for the eating you do off the bike.
• Shows you whether it is working•
Fitness, fatigue and form over time. Your FTP. Your consistency. The numbers that tell you the training is doing something.
// WHO IT IS FOR
Riders with a race on the calendar. Riders who just want to be faster, fitter and stronger on the bike. Riders who want real structure without a 1-on-1 coaching budget. Riders who would rather be told what to do than build their own training week. Riders who have started a plan before and quit because life happened and nothing adjusted.

The FasCat Climbing Interval Plan and the Weight Loss for Cyclists plan were very effective in preparing for me for a nine-day Alps Climbing Camp in France. The two plans served me well. I lost the last stubborn five pounds before my trip and I improved my climbing power. In the Alps I rode 441 miles and climbed 64,460 feet over nine days. It was the most beautiful, amazing cycling experience of my life. I then came home and got first place in my AG in the 70-mile distance of the Blue Ridge Brutal which climbed 6,100 feet. I was nearly an hour faster than the next woman in my AG—over an hour for the rest. On my last Hill Climb test for the Climbing Interval plan, I increased my average solo speed on the climb that I selected by .5 mph. The weight loss recipes were excellent. I appreciated the emphasis on plant-based Whole Foods. My biggest issue is snacking, so limiting snacks was the eye-opener for me. Thanks, FasCat
Simplicity at its finest!!!

It is hard not to love having the Optimize app, with everything available in one place you can go wrong. I love the integration with other platforms to track progress, resting, HRV, and more. When everything is schedule accordingly from the app with training plans, recovery, winning in the kitchen, and of course the unviable support, it makes life and training much better, specially when kids, work, and other things requires our attention. I could go on and on about what else I love about the Optimize app, but, it is not just the app, is the entirely FastCat coaching always there to help. Currently training for multiple races, and they help me select the plans all the way to my Breck Epic race in August. It is great to be a yearly subscriber. Oh, lets not forget it comes with free weekly podcast to keep everyone on track. :)
Excellent Athlete Support

As a Masters level cyclist juggling family, work, and training FASCAT has been invaluable to my cycling. I have been purchasing individual training plans from FASCAT for some time. With the Optimized App and yearly subscription it’s now all included. In addition to the vast library of training plans there is also meal plans which are now included. To be able to ask for coaching advice when the occasional life moment happens to your schedule is helpful and reassuring. I have learned so much from the podcasts that are available weekly. Lots of different groups offer training options out there. Few would have the founder of the company respond to your training question well outside business hours. Thanks Frank and all the other coaches who have helped me be successful.
Excellent Workouts, Training Programs & Human-like Expert Guidance
Choose the Hard Way
This app is exceptional for beginners, experts, people looking for highly effective training programs+ workouts and for time-crunched athletes with unpredictable schedules. The combination of recovery and training data and guidance derived from this data is good. The real killer feature is the AI chat which leverages decades of knowledge, expertise and common real-life scenarios to provide guidance to make the most of your workouts day to day and over time. It is also good at future casting and building out daily workouts and training programs to meet your goals and make adjustments as things pop up in life—and they always do. I highly recommend this app, it delivers on the promise of AI and LLM-driven chat with a high utility and delightful user experience.
