Training Readiness & Recovery

Free · In-App Purchases

For people who love getting outside. Outside their comfort zone. The Outsiders includes hand-picked metrics to help you improve performance with informed training. Built for self-coached athletes driven by data and planning. This isn’t another “do more” fitness app. The Outsiders balances intensity with recovery. If you train with intent, want clear feedback, and treat training as your main side project, this could be the tool for you. *Created by the team behind Apple Watch App of the Year & Apple Design Award Winner* For cyclists, runners, swimmers, and performance-focused athletes who know what they need. ▶ TODAY – KNOW YOUR READINESS Start each day with a Training Readiness score based on the ratio of acute to chronic training load, combined with body metrics and sleep quality. It shows how your recent effort balances with what your body can handle, including short-term trends. This helps you: • Choose the right effort & intensity for the day • Build steadily towards your goals • Avoid injury and overtraining All factors affecting your Readiness appear in interactive charts (Sleep, Training Load Ratio - TLR, Training Form, Body Metrics). Your body metric history shows how training affects recovery and adaptation. View data across 7 days, 4 weeks, or 6 months. Each view shows avg, max, and min values. See sleep quality, duration, stages, and consistency over 14 days. Longer periods are coming. ▶ PROGRESS – TRACK YOUR PERFORMANCE See how your training load stacks up across training cycles. • Balance hard training phases and recovery weeks • Training Goals: set short- and long-term targets and track progress over time • Training Focus: pick the right guidance style for your goals - Polarized, Pyramid, Threshold • Track your Endurance Fitness (CTL), Cardio Fitness (VO2 max), and cycling FTP with clear trends.

The Outsiders are turning 1! In a way it feels like yesterday, but looking back it was a year full of meaningful updates and milestones. Thank you for being with us on this journey! This update is, as you can imagine, all about iOS 27 - it brings voice support, a glassier look, (bit of) on-device AI, and some more. ▶ SIRI APP INTENTS. Ask Siri “Training Readiness in The Outsiders” and get an answer without opening the app. Works for your readiness, workouts, sleep, or body metrics. Make sure to add The Outsiders to any prompt you make, otherwise Siri will sail its own way. ▶ ON-SCREEN AWARENESS. Go to any part of the app and ask Siri to make sense of what you see on screen, think of it as your fitness trainer on the go. For instance “summarize this workout for me”, “what does this chart mean for my training”, … find the way that works for you. ▶ WORKOUT TITLE SUGGESTIONS. On-device AI suggests a more detailed name for your recorded sessions. Like it? Save it. Not feeling it? Make your own or keep it default. ▶ DESIGNED TO FEEL LIKE HOME. Liquid Glass got glassier, improving readability across the app and making that icon really pop on your home screen. ▶ ADAPTIVE LAYOUT. Works smoothly on any screen you open it on, including upcoming iPhone Duo. We are small, independent, passionate about what we do and how we do it. If you like our ways, rate us on The App Store. If you have feedback drop by Threads @theoutsiders.app or on Twitter at @theoutsidersapp. You can also write to support@gentlerstories.com: we read and reply to every email. Enjoy the outside!
