PulseCoach: Running Coach
Knows your body and your plan
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
New in 2.1: coming back after time off no longer reads as overtraining. Import your Runna, Coopah or TrainingPeaks sessions and PulseCoach adapts them to how you are.
Your training plan was written before your week happened.
PulseCoach reads your body's signals through Apple Health and tells you what kind of training day it is — before you lace up.
Every morning, one clear verdict from your heart rate variability, resting heart rate, sleep and training load:
TRAIN — you're ready. Do the session with confidence.
ADAPT — the signals are mixed. Here are better options.
RECOVER — your body needs the day. Here's how to keep moving.
BRING YOUR PLAN WITH YOU
Import your Runna, Coopah or TrainingPeaks sessions straight from your calendar, the distance, the target paces, the session structure.
PulseCoach knows what today is supposed to be. Then it tells you whether today is the day for it.
ADAPT THE SESSION, DON'T SKIP IT
On the mornings you're not recovered, you don't get a red light and a shrug.
You get real alternatives built around the session you were meant to do, a shorter version, a walk-run, a cross-training swap, each one showing what it preserves from the original.
AFTER THE RUN
Your route coloured by pace, with the climbs drawn underneath it. Heart rate zones, splits, cadence and form. How today compares to the last run like it.
And the coach's read on what the session actually did for you.
TELL IT WHERE IT HURTS
Log a niggle and PulseCoach works around it, today's session and every one after, until you say it's better.
Training guidance, never medical advice.
ASK COACH
Your on-demand AI running advisor. It has your vitals, your recent runs, your training load and your goal race, so the answers are about you, not generic advice from the internet.
