BOULDER, CO, NOV. 11, 2024 /ENDURANCE SPORTSWIRE/ – Cyclists who use the CoachCat app for training can now send workouts directly to Zwift, the #1 cycling app. Similarly, rides, races and workouts completed on Zwift will sync directly to CoachCat for analysis and coaching.

CoachCat is the first hardware-agnostic AI coaching app tailored for cyclists, to deliver a complete, personalized training experience. This innovative app customizes training plans by seamlessly integrating workout data from cycling computers and wearables—such as Apple Watch,Wahoo, Oura Ring, Whoop, Garmin, and more—to provide athletes with a 360-degree view of their physiological strain and recovery. With instant, real-time coaching feedback, adaptive workouts, and dynamic training plan adjustments, CoachCat empowers cyclists to optimize every ride and make informed progress toward their performance goals.

The new API integration with Zwift gives athletes a seamless way to push their workouts to Zwift from CoachCat, so they can stay consistent and follow their plan in the most time efficient way.

“Our new Zwift integration serves as the ultimate ‘atomic habit’ for athletes, making it easy and convenient to consistently follow their training plan in a way that’s fun, flexible, and, most importantly, highly effective.,” said FasCat founder Frank Overton.

“CoachCat’s personalized plans and always-accessible AI coaching now connect perfectly with lightning fast workout syncing to Zwift. FasCat’s experience and innovation in coaching will help so many more athletes and Zwifters progress and improve,” said Mark Cote, Head of Product at Zwift.

CoachCat is the first training app to use both on-bike and wearable data to give athletes a complete overview of their training progress, recovery, and readiness to train. In March of 2024, FasCat launched CoachCat – the industry leader in ai coaching and training plan management. CoachCat adapts athletes’ training to fit their preferences and busy schedules, offering instant ride data analysis, training plan adjustments, custom workouts, auto FTP detection, and expert coaching guidance.
