An AI cycling coach, in your pocket.
The coach that learns you.
Most training plans assume you're average. You're not. Bonkproof calibrates to you specifically — your response to load, your recovery, your limiters — and builds a plan that actually works.
Bonkproof
AI cycling coach
Your FTP is just the starting point. Bonkproof learns what it can't measure.
How it works
Tell us where you are
No forms. Bonkproof opens a conversation on Telegram and asks the right questions — FTP, weight, training days, goal event, current load. Takes 3 minutes. Feels like talking to a coach, not filling out a spreadsheet.
Train with purpose
Every workout comes as a precision-built table — segment by segment, watts and % FTP, total time and TSS. See your full rolling 14-day plan in a live calendar. No ambiguity. No guessing. Just execute.
Watch the calibration happen
Connect Strava and Bonkproof analyses every ride automatically. After each one it asks for your RPE and any context — legs, sleep, stress. Week over week, the model refines your real FTP estimate, catches fatigue before it becomes overtraining, and adjusts load accordingly.
Be one of the first 100 cyclists to try it.
Early access. Full Pro features. No credit card required for your first 14 days.
Why Bonkproof
Not another generic training plan.
Conversational, not forms
Onboarding is a real conversation. The coach asks one thing at a time, learns your context, and remembers it all. No spreadsheets.
It never forgets
Injuries, schedule changes, equipment updates, race results — every detail is stored and injected into every coaching conversation.
Strava auto-sync
Connect Strava and every ride is analysed automatically the moment you save it. Power data, TSS, effort distribution — no manual logging.
Weekly summaries
Every Monday you get a proactive recap: what you did last week, how you responded to load, and what this week looks like.
Rolling 14-day plan
See every prescribed session in a live calendar — interactive power charts, zone colours, TSS estimates, and the next two weeks always laid out ahead of you.
Cycling + strength
Multi-discipline scheduling, including pairs like an AM Z2 ride and a PM gym session. Strava sport-type aware, with a dedicated strength knowledge base.
Lives in Telegram
No app to download. No dashboard to check. Your coach is in the same place as your messages — instant, mobile-first, always accessible.
Threads for everything
Add Bonkproof to a Telegram group and the coach spawns separate threads — training, nutrition, gear, the head game. Each one keeps its own context. No more scrolling past last week’s wattage talk to ask about saddle sores.
A voice that lands
Goggins-style intensity. Eddy Merckx’s terse craft. Bob Roll’s unhinged enthusiasm. Switch tone with one command — same training science underneath, just a coach you’ll actually open the app to hear from.
Meet your coach
His name is Coach Billy.
Committed. Personal. One-on-one. Coach Billy knows your goals, your history, and what you're chasing — and he believes you're capable of more than you think. His job is to drag the best out of you: close the gap to your stated goal, then keep pushing toward your ceiling.
Want a different voice? Switch tone with a single command — from David Goggins intensity to Eddy Merckx's terse craft to Bob Roll's unhinged enthusiasm. Same training science underneath.
The science
Calibration that gets smarter.
Weeks 1–4
Calibration
The AI sets workouts based on your initial FTP and watches how you respond. Where do you struggle? Where do you exceed expectations? Every ride refines the model.
Weeks 5–12
Progressive loading
Your athlete profile is now calibrated. The coach applies progressive overload tuned to your actual recovery rate — not a generic formula. Load increases at the pace you can absorb.
Ongoing
Continuous adaptation
Life changes. Stress, travel, illness, breakthroughs — the coach detects shifts in your response to load and adjusts before problems become injuries or plateaus.
FAQ
Common questions.
Do I need a power meter?
It's preferable but not essential. Bonkproof works best with power data — it enables precise calibration and TSS tracking. But if you don't have a power meter, the coach can still work with RPE, heart rate, and your subjective feedback. You'll get real coaching either way, though power data makes it significantly more effective.
Why Telegram?
Coaching is a conversation, and Telegram is the best messaging platform for it. No app to install, instant notifications, works on every device, and the rich formatting means your workouts look great on mobile. Your coach is right where your messages already are.
What happens after the free trial?
After 14 days, you'll need to subscribe to continue getting new workouts and coaching conversations. You'll still be able to view your history and profile. No card is required to start — we'll remind you before the trial ends.
How is this different from TrainerRoad or Zwift plans?
Those platforms give you a fixed plan based on your FTP number. Bonkproof gives you a coach that adapts every week based on how you actually respond to training — your recovery, your limiters, your life. It's the difference between a spreadsheet and a conversation.
Can I connect Strava?
Yes — and you should. Once connected, every ride is automatically synced and analysed. The coach sees your power data, effort distribution, and training load without you having to report anything manually.
