Understanding your training

How your LatticePlan is built, how it adapts, why weeks vary, and how testing fits in.

How your plan is built

Your LatticePlan is built from your answers to the quiz: your goal, your climbing, your training focus, your experience and grades, your equipment and preferences, and the days you can train.

How your plan adapts to you

Each week, your plan reviews your training logs, your perceived effort, fatigue, and overall readiness. Using these inputs, your LatticePlan adjusts training load, guides how you progress your workouts and builds recovery where you need it.

You'll see how your plan has adapted after each weekly check-in. The app will either build you up, consolidate, or ease off so you can absorb the work and come back stronger.

Does marking sets as incomplete change my plan? Not on its own. If a week was too much, the best way to tell your plan is through the weekly check-in – that's what adjusts your upcoming training.

Why this week looks like this

Training works in phases, so your weeks aren't all meant to look the same. Some build you up, some consolidate, and some ease off so you can absorb the work and come back stronger. These phases, sometimes called mesocycles, progress strategically towards your goals. Each phase has a purpose and a specific role in helping you build fitness, develop capacity, and peak at the right time.

If a week looks lighter, that is usually by design. Your plan has not lost track of you. To see where a week sits in your plan, open Home, go to the Plan view and look at the Weekly Breakdown.

Testing and your plan

Your LatticePlan starts from your quiz answers and our data, so you can start to train at once. You do not need to test first.

Your test results also help to build your plan. When you start a new plan, it uses your newest results. Your current plan does not change when you log a test.

Tests show where you are strong and where you need more work. To log tests and read your results, see Testing.
