Said it out loud
And it's in progress
The first 7 days are free, no card needed. No automatic charges: you renew your subscription manually.
The GTO gold badge requires preparation across all the tests needed for your age level: the set of tests and standards differ, and the exact requirements are checked on gto.ru. An example of how to organise preparation is 3–4 sessions per week, distributing running, strength and other work across the chosen tests rather than testing the whole set in every session. In the strength part you can start with 3 sets of the chosen exercise and 2–3 minutes of rest; this is training load, not a GTO standard. If pull-ups are part of your preparation, use band work and controlled negative reps, and replace some regular sets with short ladders.
In 1trAIner, the coach is an AI: it builds a plan around your current results, your age-group requirements and the time you have available. Data from a Garmin or Apple Watch syncs automatically, while you log strength and other test results separately. After every workout, the plan is recalculated based on what you completed, so work on a weaker event does not crowd out the rest. The first 7 days are free, then a subscription costs 450 ₽ per month or 4999 ₽ per year, with no automatic charges.
In weeks one to three, you establish your baseline results and work on technique for the tests. In weeks five to seven, you focus more on the events furthest below your age-group requirements. Weeks four and eight are easier. In weeks nine to eleven, you run practice tests under the official rules on separate days. Week twelve reduces volume before the tests, if your readiness and test date allow. Twelve weeks is a guideline, not a guarantee of the gold badge: the timeframe depends on your baseline results, weight and recovery, since one event may need considerably more work than the others.

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 GTO tests to earn the gold badge for your age level 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.
