Understanding your training

How your LatticePlan is built, how it adapts, why weeks vary, and why there are no assessments yet.

How your plan is built

LatticePlan is built from your answers to the setup quiz: your goal and focus, your experience and recent grades, the equipment you have, and how much time you can train. (Assessments are coming in September 2026 which we know you are all psyched for!)

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's usually by design, not the plan losing track of you. You can see exactly where a week sits within this shape in the Plan tab's Weekly Breakdown.

Why there are no assessments yet

If you've used our older plans, you'll remember completing assessments first. Initially LatticePlan is designed to get you training straight away, building your plan from your quiz answers and our dataset rather than an upfront testing phase.

However we know how important testing is in understanding our strengths and weaknesses, and we're excited for assessments and in-app testing coming this September.
