Training Plan vs Planzy

This App was designed for those runners who want a simple plan to help them place higher in their own age group at races. The initial plan is geared towards preparing for a 5K/10K/Half-Marathon race, but other race distances may be added in the future. The plan is based on information gathered from multiple sources as well as personal experience using the plan. For those training in hotter climates, there is an App called Training Pace in the Apple App Store to help in making pace adjustments due to hot and humid conditions.

WHY PLANZY WORKS — BACKED BY SCIENCE: • Adapts After Every Run Your plan adjusts automatically based on your pace, effort, heart rate, and missed workouts — no manual edits needed. • Built From Your Data We analyze your Apple Health, Garmin, or Strava history to estimate your VO₂max and set your pace zones. From this, we define your: – LT1 (aerobic threshold) – LT2 (lactate threshold) – VO₂max pace Each workout hits a specific zone to improve endurance, speed, or recovery. • Zone 2 Running — Smartly Used Your training includes enough low-intensity running to build your aerobic base — but we don’t follow the 80/20 rule blindly. If you run twice a week, we focus on high-impact sessions to help you progress faster while staying fresh. We target VO₂max improvements to boost both performance and long-term health. • Smarter Load Distribution Planzy combines the best of polarized, pyramid, and 80/20 training — then tailors it to your current fitness, life, and goal. • Structured, Specific Training You’ll always know what to run, when, and at what pace or heart rate zone — no guesswork. • Built Around Your Life Pick your training days, set long-run preferences, and update your schedule anytime — Planzy adjusts instantly. • Syncs Automatically Integrates with Apple Watch, Garmin, Strava, and other fitness platforms.
