MOTTIV: Run & Triathlon Plans

Age group athletes, this is the app you’ve been looking for! I’ve been using this app for a little over a year now and it has made such a difference in my performance. I’ve done 5 Olympic triathlons and since starting this app, not only has my speed and performance gone up with each race, but I’m not getting injured at all! It incorporates recovery weeks, strength, yoga, and even a little nutrition advice! The week of a race, you even get a race week prep audio seminar (~20 mins long) that gives you pro tips on how to maximize the training you’ve done while not doing anything to screw it up before the race haha. You can train for any triathlon distance, and run distance, or bike and swims. The free version is great, but I pay the $20/month in order to get customized zones and to be able to send the workouts to my garmin watch. LOVE this app!

I cannot say enough good things about my experience using this app. I started using it in the middle of training for a 10K race. I had been working off of a popular training plan from a very well known running coach but it was missing the mark on a few things. Immediately the 10K training plan on this app made a lot more sense and I started to see improvement! On race day I got a huge PR on a tough course! Since then I’ve used this app to help me train for multiple triathlons from local sprints to my first Ironman 70.3. Even though I have access to a training plan from a local triathlon club - I still prefer this app! It prepared me so well for each event! It is customizable as far as how many hours per week I have to train, when I want to do which sessions, it allows you to train for multiple events at once, and the race day strategies have been so so informative and helpful to me. I’ve been recommending this to all my training friends!

I’ve been doing triathlons and marathons for over 15 years and previously did all of my training plans on my own using excel spreadsheets. Now for a minimal cost, I’m able to get a plan that’s equally sophisticated, and in many ways better with far less effort. The plan also includes strength training and yoga for endurance athletes, which, in the past I would tend to exclude because I was busy biking and running all the time. Now that I’m in my late 30s, it’s important to do the strength and stretching to make sure that I’m able to have longevity in the sport. Mottiv takes all of Taren’s wisdom and collapses it into a clean and simple tool that puts my attention back where it belongs - on the workouts themselves rather than on the planning process.
