The Outsiders: Athlete Tracker

Progress = Workout + Recovery

Free · In‑App Purchases

For people who like to spend time outside. Outside of their comfort zone. The Outsiders comes with hand-picked metrics and a clear goal: to help you improve performance in an informed way. It is made for athletes who are highly motivated on their own, often self-coached, and driven by data and planning. Methodical, analytical, and, let’s be honest, already deep down the fitness data rabbit hole. We know this, because we are one of them. This is not another “do more” fitness app. The Outsiders balances intensity with recovery, so progress keeps moving forward. If you train with intent, want clear feedback, and see training not as a hobby but as your main side project - this may be the tool for you. *Created by the team behind Apple Watch App of the Year 2022 and a 2024 Apple Design Award winner* For cyclists, runners, swimmers, and other performance-driven athletes who know what they need from their training app. ▶ TODAY – KNOW YOUR READINESS Start each day with a Training Readiness score. It is based on the ratio of acute to chronic training load, combined with body metrics and sleep quality. That ratio helps track the balance between your recent training effort and what your body is currently adapted to handle. Readiness also accounts for short-term trends, giving you context that makes the score more relevant. This helps you: • Select the right effort & intensity for the day • Build steadily toward goals • Avoid injury and overtraining All factors affecting your Readiness appear in interactive charts (Sleep, Training Load Ratio, Body Metrics). Body metric history shows how training impacts recovery and adaptation. View data across 7 days, 4 weeks, or 6 months - scroll back as far as your history goes. Each view shows your avg, max and min values for that period. View your sleep quality, duration, sleep stages and sleep consistency over 14 days. Longer time periods to come. ▶PROGRESS – TRACK YOUR PERFORMANCE See how your training load is stacking up during the training cycles. • Balance hard training periods and recovery weeks • Training Goals: Set short- and long-term targets and track progress over time • Training Focus: choose the right type of guidance according to your goals - Polarized, Pyramid, Threshold • Track your Endurance Fitness (CTL), Cardio Fitness (VO₂ max), and cycling FTP with clear trends. Coming later: • Running FT Pace • Cycling Power Curve ▶ WORKOUTS – COMPLETE INSIGHT All your HealthKit workouts in one place. Chance to customize your heart rate zones per activity type (running, cycling, swimming, other) for a clearer overview of your efforts. Weekly, monthly, and yearly trends with detailed charts, including: • Training load, duration, energy, distance, elevation • Heart rate zones (aerobic & anaerobic, traditional 5 HRZ) • Detailed in-workout analysis • Map • Cycling power zones Coming later: • Efficiency Factor • Aerobic Decoupling • Intensity Factor ▶ APPLE WATCH APP A perfect performance complement to your Apple Watch with key stats always a glance away. Alongside Training Readiness, it displays 7-day Training Load Ratio (TLR), Sleeping Heart Rate, Heart Rate Variability (HRV), Wrist Temperature, Respiratory Rate, Blood Oxygen, and recent nights’ Sleep. Watch app complications: • Training Readiness • Training Load Ratio ▶ LOCALISATION The Outsiders speaks 10 languages: English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, Chinese (Simpl.), Chinese (Trad.), Japanese and Korean. ▶ PRIVACY The app only reads HealthKit data on your device and never stores it elsewhere. ▶ DISCLAIMER The Outsiders uses your HealthKit data and works best with >90 days of training history. If you’re new to Apple Watch or workout logging, it will need time to learn your patterns. Limited data means limited insight. Crafted with attention to detail, by real, air-breathing humans.

As the year winds down, it's hard not to start thinking ahead. This update, last one of the year, helps pin the plans down. Introducing: ▶ PERSONAL TRAINING GOALS Set clear targets for what matters to your training and track how consistently you’re meeting them, in the Progress tab. What you can set goals for • Time • Distance • Training Load • Active Energy • Elevation How it works • Choose the workout type • Pick a timeframe (weekly, monthly, yearly) • Set your target and train as usual Stack as many goals as you need, mix time horizons, and adjust them as your training evolves. You’ll see your current progress, trends, and past periods, all in one place. If being an Outsider feels right, don’t disappear into the woods alone. Mark the trail for others chasing the same goals - a 5-star rating and a positive review on the App Store helps fellow athletes find their way here, grows the community, and fuels the small team to keep building.
