MATS vs Competitions

MATS is your AI coach for running, cycling, and triathlon. It plans your training week by week, checks your training load every day, and rebuilds your plan when your daily life changes. Behind the AI coach are real elite coaches. Their training philosophy is built into every plan it creates for you. Do you train with your own coach? Then you can work together in MATS, with your calendar, chat, and all your data in one place. And if you simply want to record and analyze your training, you’ll find everything you need in the same app. ### AI COACH - Tell it what changes: two extra hours on Sunday, a business trip, an illness.
