TrainingPeaks alternatives

What are the best TrainingPeaks alternatives?

The alternatives neutral sites name most often are Intervals.icu, Strava, TrainerRoad and Final Surge. Which one fits depends on what you use TrainingPeaks for: analysis, a coach, structured cycling, or a plan written for you. Complete is our own app, so it has its own section below, held to the same sources and dates.

How we picked

We counted which products four neutral pages name as TrainingPeaks alternatives: AlternativeTo’s user-voted list, The Travel Runner, Cycle Tech Trends and a Slowtwitch forum thread. None of them sells a training app. We left out roundups published by companies that sell a competing app, and lists with paid placements.

Intervals.icu and Strava appear on three of the four pages. Five products appear on two; of those, TrainerRoad and Final Surge are mentioned most on DC Rainmaker’s article about Garmin buying TrainingPeaks and in its comments. Garmin Connect was left out of that count because the article is about Garmin.

What TrainingPeaks includes

TrainingPeaks Premium costs $134.99 a year or $19.95 a month on the web, with a 14-day free trial. In TrainingPeaks’ own words: “The only features we offer that are not included with Premium are personal coaches and training plans.” Plans come from coaches and its plan store, and its coaching tiers cost $149 to $359 a month.

Garmin announced on 22 July 2026 that it had acquired TrainingPeaks.

Intervals.icu

Free, with a $4 a month Supporter tier that adds, among other things, an annual training plan builder: pick your target race and it lays out base, build and peak phases. It tracks riding, running, swimming and rowing with separate zones per sport, and syncs with Garmin, Strava, Polar, Suunto, Coros, Wahoo and Zwift.

Pick it if you want free training analysis and are happy to build your plan yourself or with its season builder.

Strava

Recording and sharing activities is free. The subscription costs €74.99 a year or €10.99 a month in Germany; the US App Store lists it at $79.99 and $11.99 without naming the periods. It adds your training history in one place, heart rate analysis, Fitness & Freshness and custom heart rate zones, among other features.

Its cycling plans are four-week plans delivered by email. New running plans come from Runna, which is not part of the standard subscription; Strava sells the two together for $149.99 a year.

Pick it if you mostly want to record, share and compare activities with the people you know.

TrainerRoad

$209.99 a year or $21.99 a month. Cycling comes first, with plans for cycling, triathlon and off-road riding. Its plans adapt on their own; in TrainerRoad’s words, “Go for a run? The plan adapts.” If your outdoor rides get too long or too hard, it assigns rest days.

Pick it if cycling is your main sport and you want the plan to adapt for you.

Final Surge

The athlete account is free. Athlete Premium is $6.58 a month billed annually, with a 7-day free trial, and adds a daily readiness score from an HRV reading taken with your phone’s camera or a heart rate monitor. Its plans come from coaches, for running, triathlon, swimming and strength. Final Surge describes adjusting future training as something you do after analysing your workouts.

Pick it if you work with a coach or buy a coach’s plan and want a free place to log.

Where Complete fits

Complete is our own app. We wouldn’t build it if we didn’t think it was the best, we train with it ourselves, and we work every day to make it better. Complete is the fitness superapp: every sport counts, and you compete with your friends in all of them. It starts from your long-term goals, not a plan, and gives you three ways to work toward them: a recommendation for each day, Roads and challenges against your friends, and a plan when you have a race (running, Hyrox or general fitness). Every workout you do counts, the week is built around the other sports you play, a red recovery day turns today’s session into rest or an easy one, and it shows your recent training load against your six-week base.

It also tests you like an athlete: a ramp test on a treadmill or a 12-minute Cooper run in the app, and in Berlin an in-person running test with PhysioEffekt. It is an iPhone app that reads Apple Health and connects to WHOOP and Oura for recovery and sleep; Garmin, COROS, Polar and Suunto data arrives through Apple Health. It has no Strava connection and no coach marketplace. Its price is in the table below.

Pick it if you think about your fitness over years: goals first, every sport you do counted, daily recommendations without a plan, a plan when you have a race, and a ranking against your friends across all of them.
