CoachBeat

For coaches in figure skating, speed skating and off-ice training

Plan training the way you say it.

Say “warm-up 15 min, 5 × 4 min at threshold with 3 min easy, cool-down 10” and CoachBeat builds the session, with each athlete’s own watts, speed and heart rate, and a check that the week’s load fits.

The demo needs no sign-up and uses made-up athletes. Nothing is saved.

The planner: say what you want, choose the athlete, build a draft

What it does

Say it, get a session

Speak or type the session the way you would tell an athlete. The AI turns it into blocks with sets, work and rest. You check the draft; nothing is saved until you click.

Targets for each athlete

Plan in % of threshold or heart-rate zones once. Every athlete sees their own watts, speed and heart rate, worked out from their own step test.

Load check before you publish

Each week is compared with the athlete's usual week (0.8–1.3 ×). Short sleep, soreness or a CMJ drop lower the limit, and the planner tells you when a week is too much or too little.

Made for the ice

Jumps as counted elements, program run-throughs, sections and choreography. The Program Repeat Test gives on-ice markers for glycolytic power and aerobic fitness.

An app for the athlete

Today's session, a 20-second check-in, jump tests and progress on the phone. Sessions also appear in Google or Apple Calendar with one link.

Uses the data you already have

VALD ForceDecks jumps feed readiness and planning. Sending sessions to Garmin watches is in preparation.

How it works

  1. 1

    Test

    A step test (bike, run or ice) and a jump test set each athlete's thresholds and zones.

  2. 2

    Say the week

    “4 weeks base, 3 sessions a week, one threshold session, lighter 4th week.” Edit any block with a tap.

  3. 3

    Check and publish

    See the load per athlete, adjust, publish. Athletes train with their own targets and log how it went.

Built at the rink

CoachBeat is made by AXL – Athletes Excellence Lab together with the coaches of Skate Academy Switzerland in Zürich, and is shaped by what coaches need on the ice every day.

Your athletes’ data

Stored in the EU. Health data is visible to staff only. When the AI plans, it gets numbers (thresholds, jump values), never names. Many athletes are young: parents give consent first.
