AI Agents, HRV Readiness & the Next Era of Training
Deep dive on how AI agents are being integrated into training platforms, how HRV readiness assessments are evolving, and what the next generation of training methodologies looks like.
Listen / Watch →Workout Reserve and the Future of AI Coaching
Why traditional models like W′ fall short, and how Workout Reserve offers a more flexible mechanical way to understand athlete capability. The future of AI coaching: RAG-AI, LLMs, and agents in training platforms.
Listen / Watch →Modelling First: Building Smarter Endurance Training
Why modeling must come before AI can be useful in coaching. Models like Critical Power, Banister TRIMP, and HRV response curves provide the structure AI needs to make smart, adaptable decisions.
Listen / Watch →Human-AI Balance in Coaching: Athletica's AI-Assisted HRV Monitoring
HRV and its role in optimising training readiness and recovery. As co-architect of Athletica's AI-assisted HRV monitoring, I explain how AI enhances HRV analysis while maintaining the importance of human expertise.
Watch →From Lab to Athlete: Optimizing Training with Workout Reserve
Development and application of Workout Reserve — an AI-driven tool that helps athletes measure their current effort against historical performances — with real-world applications in elite cycling and Ironman.
Watch →What AI-Powered Training Is & What It Is Not
Remote
Discussion with Paul Laursen on what AI can realistically do in training and what it cannot, including ethical and practical constraints when applying AI to training.
