Why a real free training plan still needs honest AI credit limits
A free plan can absolutely get a committed athlete started. Credits are how we stay honest about when the deeper personalization is being spent.

Free means usable, not decorative
A free training plan gives you a real path to start. If you are willing to follow a basic plan consistently, the software cannot get in the way just because your goal is ambitious.
The honest tradeoff is personalization depth. A starter plan uses structured rules and simple adjustments. AI credits get spent when you want deeper context, a regenerated plan, or more frequent adaptation.
Credits describe real work, not scarcity
A useful credit system tells you what is happening — one week of personalization, a shorter same-day adjustment, or a longer planning window. The number has to map to a real planning action you can see.
That keeps the product easy to understand. You get to decide when a deeper AI pass matters and when a stable rule-based plan is plenty for the week.

Core and Pro can add depth without breaking trust
Paid plans can add richer sync, more frequent personalization, deeper score explanations, and premium workflows. They cannot turn the free plan into a dead end.
We keep the starter path clear, then Core and Pro mean more context, more adaptation, and less manual work — not a locked door.
Questions athletes ask
Can a free training plan still be useful?
Yes. A free plan is useful when it gives you a real structured path and only spends AI credits on clearly priced actions you asked for.
Why use credits at all?
Credits make AI planning work visible. You get to see when you are asking for a full week, a shorter adjustment, or a deeper regeneration pass.
