Frequently Asked Questions

How does the Push Training app work?

Push Training is a fitness app specializing in interval-based treadmill runs, adapting each interval to the user's Personal Best while providing audio coaching and high-energy music to create an immersive experience.

Is there a variety of workouts to choose from?

Yes, Push Training provides dozens of different interval-based sessions, from quick 20-minute workouts to intense 45-minute+ sessions. Many have different areas of focus, such as speed, endurance, or incline.

Can beginners use Push Training?

Absolutely! Push Training is designed to accommodate all fitness levels. Workouts are based on your Personal Best, which can be easily adjusted in the app. We frequently hear from users who say they are using starting out and for the first time ever, made it through a workout.

What is my "Personal Best"?

Your personal best is the fastest you can repeatedly run for about one minute while still feeling like you are in complete control. It should feel like a 9 out of 10 on the effort scale. We'll set your initial personal best based on the questions you answer after downloading the app, but you can (and are encouraged to) adjust it at any time.

How do I track calories?

If you would like to sync your metrics with the Push Training app, install the Push Training app on your Apple Watch and enable "Track calories" in the Profile tab of the Push Training app. This will track your calories, heart rate, and distance in the Push Training app and sync the workout metrics with the Apple Health app.

If you don't use an Apple Watch, you can always track your workout metrics, such as calories, heart rate, and distance, with any wearable device outside of Push Training. For example, you can start an indoor run workout on your smartwatch while using the Push Training app on your device at the same time, and then later enter in your workout metrics into the Push Training app.

How does the music work?

The app offers three great options ensuring everyone can run to amazing beats.

1. Push Training music - Enjoy handpicked songs mapped to the intensity of each interval. This creates a dynamic workout experience where the music and movements flow together. You can hit the thumbs up/down buttons in a workout to indicate if you like or dislike a song. This information is then used to further customize your experience.

2. No music - Mute workout music to play your own from your favorite music app. This option is ideal for those that have perfected their personal playlists, and when enabled, the Push Training audio coaching will automatically lower your music volume while speaking.

2. Radio mix - Available in the United States, Canada, UK, Australia, and New Zealand, listen to music from top artists, blended into a beat perfectly suited for running.

You can change your default music mode in the Profile tab, or change it for a current workout using the options menu.
