Train smart today. Keep progressing tomorrow.

PulseCoach reviews your Apple Health data daily and gives you one clear decision: Train, Adapt, or Recover — with specific guidance for each. Not a recovery score. A plan you can act on.

TRAIN

Clear decisions, not just data

Should I train today?— get a clear answer based on recent training and recovery

Am I drifting toward injury? — spot fatigue patterns before they become problems

Is my running form changing? — track biomechanics trends over time

Full coaching free for 7 days. Premium unlocks long-term trends for training blocks (£9.99/month).
Built for runners. Built on Apple Health.

Most recovery apps tell you to wait. We tell you what to do.

Your Apple Watch collects incredible data. But most apps just turn that into a score — and leave you wondering what to do with it.

'Recovery: 62%.' Great. Now what?

There's almost always a productive path forward. A day when hard intervals aren't smart might be perfect for easy miles, mobility work, or technique drills.

The problem isn't that you need more rest. It's that no one tells you what to do instead.

PulseCoach does.

70% of performance gains come from consistent training

5-10%performance improvement from optimised cadence & form

Your Apple Watch already has the answers. We turn them into action.

Each morning, PulseCoach reviews your HRV, sleep quality, and recovery signals from Apple Health — automatically. Then it asks you three quick questions. In under 30 seconds, you get a clear recommendation:

TRAIN

Your body is ready. Push your training.

ADAPT

Train smarter today. Adjust intensity or focus.

RECOVER

Active recovery: mobility, strength, or easy aerobic work.

A coach that finds a path forward — even on your worst days

Runners are good at pushing through. Too good. PulseCoach tracks your cumulative training load, sleep trends, and recovery patterns. It sees when fatigue is building before you feel it.

But unlike apps that just tell you to wait, PulseCoach finds what you CAN do. Hard intervals off the table? Maybe today is perfect for easy aerobic work, strength, or technique focus. The longer you train, the more context PulseCoach has when making decisions.

Your watch already knows how you run

Using motion data from your Apple Watch or Garmin, PulseCoach analyses your cadence, ground contact time, and left-right balance. After each run, you'll see what's working — and what's drifting.

We don't just show metrics — we explain when changes matter. Early signs of fatigue-related form breakdown? We'll flag it before it becomes an injury.

Your daily coaching loop

PulseCoach always explains today's recommendation. Over time, it also learns your patterns — that long-term context is what Premium unlocks.

Runners who stopped waiting and started progressing

Since testing PulseCoach alongside my Runna plan, I’ve finally stopped guessing when to back off. The AI Coach flagged that my recovery HRV was dropping, even when my legs felt fine, and it probably saved me from another taper-week injury

Emma

Marathon runner

I treat PulseCoach like an early-warning system. During testing, it picked up subtle fatigue patterns from my cadence and ground contact time that I’d never have noticed. I’ve adjusted my interval runs and I’m finishing long sessions feeling fresher, ready for race day

Connor

50K trail runner

The AI summary has been a game-changer. It noticed my overall training load was climbing too steeply alongside my other workouts and arthritis condition. I modified one of my long runs based on its advice , and it’s helped me stay consistent without overdoing it again

Not another readiness score. A runner's daily decision coach.

A lot of Apple Watch apps are great at summarising recovery. But runners still get stuck on the same question:

"What should I do today?"

PulseCoach is built to answer that — with clear guidance and smart alternatives when pushing isn't the move.

FAQs

Questions runners ask before they start.

Do I need to stop using my current training plan?

No. PulseCoach works alongside any plan — Runna, Garmin Coach, or a coach-written program. It tells you when to follow the plan and when your body needs something different.

Does "Recover" mean I shouldn't exercise?

No. Recover means active recovery — easy aerobic work, mobility, strength, or technique. You're still progressing, just without unnecessary stress.

How is this different from other Apple Watch apps like Athlytic or Gentler Streak?

Those apps are great at showing readiness and recovery trends. PulseCoach goes one step further: it tells you what to do today as a runner — Train, Adapt, or Recover — with specific guidance and smart alternatives on tougher days.

What happens after the 7-day free trial?

After 7 days, you can continue with Premium (£9.99/month). You'll keep getting daily guidance either way — Premium adds deeper trend analysis as your training history grows.
