My Program Generator is a fully adaptive and automated training program for runners, swimmers, cyclists, triathletes and fitness enthusiasts. MPG takes real-life performance and training data and creates an optimized training program. This program constantly adapts and changes as the athlete adapts and changes. The MPG algorithms have been scientifically formulated through rigorous research and field testing to ensure each program is highly accurate and specific to each athlete. MPG provides an outcomes-based and scientific evidence-based approach to training prescription. The MPG algorithms have been formulated from scientific principles and they have been refined and tested on thousands of athletes, ranging from beginners to professionals. The MPG system is highly accurate for every athlete type because it takes multiple performance data points and training history into consideration when generating each program. Each training program that is generated is unique to each individual. As workouts are logged in the workout log, the MPG system accumulates information to update the training program automatically. The performance tests get repeated on 3-6 week intervals and this, combined with the logged training, gets used to update and generate the new training program, automatically. Events and races can be added to the system and the athlete's training program will update to prepare the athlete optimally for key races. MPG will include variables such as date, race type, distance and course profile and combine this with performance and training history to create the optimal training stimulus in the build up to key races. MPG also automatically provides athletes with optimal race-pace guidelines with each race they compete in. This information is based on training history and performance data and has proven to be highly accurate and extremely useful when trying to improve personal records. Some of our testimonials: β€œThe personalization, structure and detail of each set allows me to get the maximum benefit from the time I have available to train” Anthony Briggs β€œMy journey with MPG has been amazing, lost 12kg, finished my first Ironman in 11h:38m and then qualified for 70.3 World Champs in Austria after finishing 6th overall at 70.3 SA. Every Month my times are getting better on each discipline when I do the tests and it seems there is no ceiling to my performance improvement” Kim Heger View our Privacy Policy: https://myprogramgenerator.com/site/page?view=privacy View our Terms & Conditions: https://myprogramgenerator.com/site/page?view=terms
