Dynamic Training Plans

What is a Dynamic Training Plan?

A Dynamic Training Plan allows anyone with a TrainingPeaks Coach Edition Account to build and manage a single exercise schedule which immediately updates the calendar of every user subscribed to the plan.  Unlike a traditional plan, where the buyer or the coach must decide when to start the plan, a Dynamic Plan is intended to be used in real-time.  That is, if you schedule a workout for Wednesday the 21st, it will appear on EVERYONE's calendar on Wednesday the 21st. As the plan is changed, for example, moving the Wednesday workout to Friday, everyone's workout will be immediately changed to Friday.  All changes or additions to the plan are immediately reflected in everyone's calendar that is subscribed to the plan.
No need to write a schedule and then copy it to everyone that is following the plan. You literally manage a single plan, and everyone will get your updates in real-time.  Any user that subscribes to the plan is free to log their own workouts against the plan too, making it super easy and powerful for your clients to track their plan vs. actual and stay on track.
Just like traditional plans, the coach can add clients to a Dynamic plan, or, public users can purchase access to a Dynamic plan.

How do I create a Dynamic Plan?

Creating a Dynamic plan is exactly like creating a traditional plan in TrainingPeaks.com, except you click the "make plan dynamic" checkbox on the plan's "Edit" page.   Once created, you are free to use all the tools of TrainingPeaks.com to build your schedules.

Uses for Dynamic Plans

Are you coaching a group of people that are following the same schedule?

Want to build real-time class schedules and have them available to many users?

Do you want to start a training club or group where everyone follows a similar program?

Would you like to manage a single schedule and allow everyone that follows the plan to log their own workouts?

Build club schedules (pilates, spin classes, yoga, aerobics, step classes) and all your customers will have real-time access to the schedules. No need to download a new schedule every month, its all updated in real time!

Group training. Dynamic plans are perfect for group training.

Running: Create separate "pace-group" programs, add people to the plan and you'll only manage one plan per group.

Do I have to pay extra to build Dynamic plans?

There is no extra fee, you pay the standard $49/month for a Coach Account, nothing else. Both basic and premium clients/users can subscribe to a Dynamic plan.
