The area on the map isn't yours yet. You run a loop around the park — and the land inside the loop becomes yours. You run through a neighbor's section — you take that too. In the runners' ranking you move up to first place.
The first 7 days are free, no card needed. No automatic charges: you renew your subscription manually.
Your 12-week preparation for X-Waters starts with choosing a swim and assessing your ability to swim comfortably for an extended period. In open water, you need endurance, sighting skills and the ability to settle back into steady breathing after looking ahead. Check the distance and conditions in the rules for your chosen event.
In 1trAIner, the coach builds a plan for your level and your schedule of pool or organised open-water sessions. Data from Garmin or Apple Watch syncs automatically, and the plan is recalculated after every workout. Watch data helps assess training load, but it cannot replace direct observation of your technique.
First, you establish steady breathing and a routine of manageable swim sets, then gradually swim for longer without stopping. Practise sighting in open water only in safe conditions with supervision. Progress means maintaining controlled effort without frequent stops. Training volume is then reduced as the event approaches.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need a sports watch?
No. You can start without one: the plan is based on your goal, level, and available time. With a Garmin or Apple Watch, the plan can be tailored more precisely — the coach can see your heart rate, sleep, and actual weekly training volume.
What happens after the free week?
The subscription costs 450 ₽ per month or 4999 ₽ per year. There are no automatic charges: your card details are not stored, and you renew manually using the link in the reminder.
Is the coach a person or a program?
1trAIner is an informational service: plans and reviews are prepared by AI based on your data. This is not a medical service and not a substitute for a doctor or an in-person coach.
What if my goal changes?
Let the coach know in the chat. Your plan is currently built around “Prepare for the X-Waters swim race in 12 weeks”, but race dates can change, injuries happen, and vacations come up. The coach will adjust your training cycle to fit your new circumstances.
