Kickass
Run Training

Our Kickass Run Training subscription includes training plan templates for the 10km, 21km and 42km distances. You will find these in all categories/vibes. Depending on your running experience and type, you can choose the plan in the RHYTHM, PEAK or ELEVATE vibe that suits you.

RHYTHM: Do you already have running experience, but want to prepare for a goal in a targeted and structured way for the first time?

PEAK: Are you an experienced runner, ambitious and maybe even aiming for new best times?

ELEVATE: Here, ambitious runners and endurance athletes can find plans that prepare them specifically for a goal by combining cycling and running.

Please note: We do not currently offer running plans for absolute beginners.

Our complete library of running plans, which are scientifically based and tried and tested in practice, is available as a subscription at Kickass. This means you have access to all plans at any time and can decide 100% flexibly how you want to organize your training. With Kickass, you become your own coach to help you reach your goal.

There’s no AI here – you get plans and content from people for people, because we know what everyday life as an athlete entails.

In addition, we offer you full support in the implementation of your training in the form of weekly check-ins.

Here you can discuss questions about your training with the Kickass coaches and the community. In addition to the pure training guidelines, our plans always include a description of what the goal of the session is and how you should best implement the training and eat.

In short: Kickass offers running training with brains. So you can reach your goal healthily and with pleasure.

• Training plan templates for the distances 10km, 21km and marathon, which you can then adapt individually to your everyday life. The training plan templates include the complete preparation for the season with 2 cycles per year so you can prepare perfectly for spring and fall runs.
• Premium access to our AZUM training platform
• Compatibility with common sports devices and platforms (Garmin, Polar, Wahoo, Zwift…)
• Targeted training control by creating your metabolic profile in AZUM
• Instructions for the implementation of units
• Fueling recommendation
• Weekly online check-ins with our Kickass coaches and the Kickass community for direct exchange
• Video training instructions for yoga, strength and mobility training and technique exercises

Having fun during training is fundamental to progress and performance growth. That’s why we’ve given a lot of thought to a meaningful categorization of runner types and how training planning can be designed sensibly. This is how the RHYTHM, PEAK and ELEVATE vibes came about.

RHYTHM: you already have running experience but want to prepare for a goal in a targeted and structured way for the first time?

PEAK: are you an experienced runner, ambitious and maybe even aiming for new best times?

ELEVATE: ambitious runners and endurance athletes can find plans here that prepare them specifically for a goal by combining cycling and running.

Please note: We do not currently offer running plans for absolute beginners.

Absolutely. You are 100% flexible and can put together the plans that are right for you from the complete library. Do you need support? Then come to the weekly check-in with the Kickass coaches every Monday at 7pm.

In Kickass Run Training, you build your season the way that suits you best. We provide you with the corresponding templates via so-called training series. We offer you a training cycle for both the spring and fall races, which consists of: 9 weeks development phase, 6 weeks build phase and 6 weeks peak phase. This is followed by a 3-week transition phase until the start of the next training cycle.

Of course. You alone decide on your training plan and should even adapt the sessions in our AZUM training platform to suit you and your everyday life. This is also what sets our training apart from others. Kickass offers you templates and not a rigid plan. With simple clicks you can move, change and, if necessary, delete units. The plan should suit you and your everyday life, but also your stress level, cycle and goals.

In any case. A healthy menstrual cycle and a healthy hormonal balance are the basis for athletic performance and performance development – Laura Philipp is a pioneer and role model here. That’s why you can train in a cycle-sensitive way in all Kickass training programs. You will find out and learn exactly how this works during the process.

In addition to functional running clothing and suitable running shoes, you will ideally need a heart rate sensor and a sports watch (Garmin, Polar, etc.) to train effectively. A running power meter (e.g. Stryde) is an advantage, but definitely not a must. If you opt for the “ELEVATE” category, a bike and/or roller with a power meter is an advantage, as the plans explicitly include cycling-specific sessions.

With the Kickass subscription, you not only receive all training plans, but also a premium account with AZUM, our training platform where you can manage your training. But that’s not all! As long as you are an active Kickass athlete – i.e. you have a current subscription – you can enjoy all the benefits such as weekly online check-ins with the coaches, the Kickass Knowledge Hub (with lots of useful information about training), discounts on other Kickass services such as performance diagnostics, bike fitting, 1:1 call and our partner discounts.

No, there is no minimum duration.
However, we know that training success and performance development can only be achieved through continuous training and development. That’s why we advise you to build up your training in a structured way over several months.

Of course. As soon as you take out the subscription, your 14-day free trial period starts. During this period, we will show you all the advantages of Kickass and you can familiarize yourself with all the content and features at your leisure. If you don’t like it, you can cancel at any time within these 14 days.

You can cancel the current subscription at any time. The subscription ends at the end of the current billing period.

The first 14 days are free. From then on, you pay €50/month and enjoy all the benefits of being a Kickass Run Training athlete.

You can cancel your subscription by clicking on “Edit profile” in AZUM. This will take you to the subscription administration and you can select “Cancel as soon as possible”.
