Project Goals
and Objectives
LODE is a data-driven training platform designed to bridge the gap between wearable data and actionable insights. It integrates physiological and performance data, applies advanced analytics like EWMA, and delivers personalized AI-driven training recommendations to help runners manage load, recovery, and long-term performance.
LODE: Key Challenges in Training & Wearable Data
Surface-Level Metrics
Runners rely on basic metrics like pace and distance without understanding actual training stress.
Data Overload
Wearables generate large amounts of data, but users lack tools to interpret it effectively.
Injury Risk
Improper load management often leads to injuries due to sudden increases in training intensity.
Lack of Context
Most platforms fail to account for fatigue, recovery, or physiological differences in similar workouts.
No Personalization
Static training plans do not adapt to real-life changes such as missed sessions or illness.
No Load Monitoring
Most apps do not track acute vs chronic workload, a key factor in performance and injury prevention.
