BORGCoach vs Benchmark

BORGCoach is an AI running coach that makes sense of all your health and training data, then builds one adaptive plan around your race, fitness, and consistency goals. Connect Garmin or Apple Health, or start without a watch. Raw numbers don't make you faster. BORGCoach reads your sleep, readiness, HRV, training load, recent runs, and even the wind, works out how they fit together, and turns them into a plan that changes when you do. Slept badly, missed a day, or caught a headwind? The plan adjusts and tells you why. Most training apps assume you want exactly one thing. Real life is messier. You might want a faster 10K, to lose a few kilos, and to run consistently, and those goals pull against each other. BORGCoach holds several goals at once and balances the trade-offs in a single weekly plan, with the right detail for each goal. START WITH A CONVERSATION BORGCoach opens with a short chat. It asks a few useful questions, explains what each answer changes, runs a quick plain-language safety check, and shows you a personalized starter plan before you create an account. ONE PLAN THAT ADAPTS TO YOU • Set a race date, a pace, a distance, or a weight target, or just build an aerobic base • See a seven-day schedule with today front and center • Your plan responds to sleep, readiness, recovery, and weather, including wind speed • Adjust your long-run day and available days, and the plan adapts safely • Regenerate the week in a tap when life changes TODAY Open the app to see your next session, your readiness, and your coach's read on both. Everything is cached for instant loading and refreshed in the background. A COACH THAT SHOWS ITS WORK BORGCoach explains its decisions in plain language, checks in as you go, and keeps a coach journal of reflections and adaptations. After meaningful sessions it offers post-run coaching. You can always see why this week looks the way it does. PROGRESS Track personal records and predicted times, weekly distance, and consistency and recovery milestones, each with an explainable measurement. Rewards are private. There are no public leaderboards. YOUR DATA, MADE USEFUL Connect Garmin Connect to sync activities, sleep, HRV, training status, body composition, devices, badges, and gear.

Is that a good lift? Benchmark answers the only question that matters when you hit a number: where does it actually place you? Enter a lift. Get a percentile against real, judged, competition data. Watch that placement move over time. This is not a workout logger. There is no exercise library, no rest timer, no programme builder. It does one thing. WHAT YOU GET • Percentile ranking for bench, squat and deadlift • Your placement against 1.8 million judged competition lifts • Compare within your age group — IPF divisions from 13–18 to 70+ • Targets: the weight that reaches the 50th, 75th, 90th or 95th percentile at your bodyweight • Log a set of up to 10 reps and get an estimated one-rep max, labelled as one • Tier labels from Untrained through Elite • Percentile drift — your placement over time, not just your PRs • Composite ranking across your three-lift total • Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets • Share cards, generated on your device • iPhone and iPad, with optional iCloud sync between them BUILT ON REAL DATA Comparison curves are derived from OpenPowerlifting, an open public-domain database of sanctioned meet results. Our curves reproduce independently published, peer-reviewed norms to within 3%. We show you the sample size behind every curve. We tell you when a number is less reliable. PRIVACY, PROPERLY • No account. Nothing to sign in to. • Your lifts, bodyweight and history stay on your device — or, only if you turn on iCloud sync, in your own private iCloud, which we can't see. • Comparison data ships inside the app — the percentile is computed offline. • No Apple Health access. • Anonymous usage analytics, which you can switch off in Settings. PRICING Bench press is free forever — not a trial, and not limited. Check it as often as you like and you'll never be asked for anything. Squat, deadlift, full history, percentile drift and widgets are $2.99 a month, or $24.99 a year with the first week free. Cancel any time. A NOTE ON THE NUMBERS Meet data is a selective population — everyone in it chose to compete. Your percentile against it will read lower than you expect. That's the honest reading, and we'd rather show it than flatter you. Benchmark is a comparison tool, not a health assessment. It doesn't tell you what to train or what's safe for you to attempt.
