KIVO exists because life never follows the training plan.
Work runs late. Children wake up. Energy disappears. Sessions get missed. Traditional training plans rarely understand any of that. KIVO was created to build training around the life you actually live.
I didn’t need another training plan. I needed one that understood my life.
I’m Ross, a working parent and age-group athlete trying to improve while balancing a career, family life and everything else that fills the week. Like many people, I could find training plans. The problem was following them. A plan might tell me to complete a long run on Sunday, without knowing that the children had been awake during the night. It might schedule an intense session on the busiest day of my working week. When life inevitably got in the way, the plan didn’t adapt. It simply left me feeling as though I had failed. The more I trained, the more obvious the problem became.
The plan shouldn’t break when life changes.
KIVO began with a simple idea. What if your training plan could move with you? What if it understood your goals, your available time and the demands outside training? What if missing a session didn’t mean losing momentum? And what if intelligent technology could support human coaching, rather than replace it? That became KIVO. A personalised training experience designed for people who care about performance but have full, complicated lives.
Intelligence, with a human at its core.
KIVO uses intelligent planning to understand your training, progress and availability. But numbers never tell the complete story. Stress, sleep, family, work and motivation all affect how you train. That’s why KIVO combines intelligent adaptation with human coaching input, creating a plan that understands more than your pace, power or distance. It’s not a rigid programme you have to organise your life around. It’s a plan that follows you.
I created KIVO for athletes like me. Ambitious enough to want more, but busy enough to need a different way of getting there.
