Isn't there a separate product called TrainingPeaks Strength?

No. Strength inside TrainingPeaks is the integrated Lift feature of the main platform and app. The dedicated strength product in the same family is TrainHeroic — a separate sibling brand under Peaksware, with its own app and pricing.

Can TrainingPeaks handle percentage-based strength programming?

Its Lift feature logs video-guided strength sessions with RPE ratings and feeds them into the fatigue model, but percentage-of-1RM auto-progression, max tracking dashboards, and strength periodization tooling aren't part of the documented feature set. Coaches who program that way typically maintain the math elsewhere — which is the gap Phaserr closes.

How much does Phaserr cost compared to TrainingPeaks?

Phaserr is free. TrainingPeaks Premium for athletes is $19.95/mo (about $134.99/yr); coaches pay $21.99/mo for Coach Edition or $54.99/mo for Unlimited, plus from $9.00 per Premium athlete per month — a cost that scales linearly with your roster.

Should endurance athletes leave TrainingPeaks for Phaserr?

No — for endurance planning and device sync, TrainingPeaks is excellent. Phaserr makes sense for the strength side: some coaches run both, with Phaserr owning the barbell program.

Alternatives

A TrainingPeaks alternative built for strength, not endurance

TrainingPeaks is the industry standard for endurance coaching — its TSS/CTL/ATL load metrics are the shared language of cycling, running, and triathlon, and no platform syncs with more devices. If you coach endurance, it's probably the right tool.

Strength is a different story. Inside TrainingPeaks, lifting is the "Lift" feature: video-guided movements logged on the endurance calendar, feeding a fatigue score. The things a barbell coach programs with — percentage waves off tested maxes, block periodization, PR-driven progression — aren't what it's built around. Phaserr is built around exactly those.

What TrainingPeaks does well

TrainingPeaks (a Peaksware brand) is a two-decade-mature endurance platform: structured workouts that push directly to Garmin, Wahoo, Polar, Coros, and Suunto head units, the Performance Manager fitness/fatigue model used by national federations, a large training-plan marketplace, and an integrated strength feature (Lift) with 1,000+ video-guided movements and RPE ratings on strength sessions.

Phaserr vs TrainingPeaks at a glance

	Phaserr	TrainingPeaks
Built for	Strength and S&C coaches writing periodized programs (powerlifting, weightlifting, combat, team sport).	Endurance athletes and coaches — cycling, running, triathlon — planning and analyzing training load in TSS/CTL/ATL terms.
Program building	Block periodization is the core object: plan the macrocycle, phase the blocks, build sessions inside them — with an AI assistant that understands periodization.	A mature interval/workout builder and Annual Training Plan on the endurance side; strength sessions are placed on the same calendar via the Lift feature.
Loading methods	Percent-based and RPE-based prescriptions built in. A dated 1RM history feeds percentage loads automatically — a new max updates tomorrow's working sets.	Strength workouts carry RPE ratings; percentage-of-1RM auto-progression and max/PR-driven loading aren't part of the documented Lift feature set.
Logging & devices	Set-by-set actuals, AMRAPs and test days captured; logging feeds directly into the next session's loads.	The deepest device ecosystem in endurance sport — Garmin, Wahoo, Polar, Coros, Suunto, WHOOP, Oura, Zwift and more sync automatically; strength logs feed the overall fatigue model.
Analytics	Strength-native: 1RM histories, tonnage and intensity across blocks.	Endurance-native: TSS, CTL/ATL, Performance Manager Chart — the industry-standard fitness/fatigue framework.
Pricing	Free.	Athletes: free Basic or Premium at $19.95/mo (~$134.99/yr). Coaches: Coach Edition $21.99/mo or Unlimited $54.99/mo, plus Premium athlete add-ons from $9.00 per athlete/mo (volume discounts apply).

Which one is for you

Choose TrainingPeaks if…

You coach endurance sport — the TSS/CTL/ATL model and head-unit workout sync are exactly what you need.
Your athletes live on Garmin, Wahoo, or Zwift and expect automatic device sync.
Strength is a supporting block in an endurance plan, logged mainly for its effect on overall fatigue.

Choose Phaserr if…

Strength is the program, not a supplement — you think in blocks, percentages, and rep maxes.
You want %1RM and RPE prescriptions computed from each athlete's tested maxes automatically.
You don't want to pay per-athlete endurance pricing for features a barbell program never touches.

Moving from TrainingPeaks to Phaserr

If you've been running strength athletes through TrainingPeaks, the migration is mostly gaining tools you didn't have rather than rebuilding ones you did.

Write down the structure behind your current strength calendar: phases, weekly split, and how you progress loads.
Rebuild it in Phaserr as blocks — the AI assistant drafts mesocycles from your split and goals, and you adjust from there.
Enter each athlete's current maxes (or a recent AMRAP result) so percentage-based prescriptions compute working weights automatically.
Invite your athletes and start logging — from the first session, actuals feed the loads Phaserr suggests next.
