Partner of the seventh season

Relay Athletic

The strength & conditioning platform that uses artificial intelligence to build training programmes. The coach dictates or writes their instructions, and the software turns them into complete sessions delivered to athletes on the app.

Who is behind it

Software built for people who train athletes

Relay Athletic is developed by Helia AI GmbH, founded by Arne Backstein and Ivan Batanov.

It is designed for strength & conditioning coaches working with professional teams, university programmes, private studios, rehabilitation centres and online athletes. Beyond strength, it is used for conditioning, running, mixed sessions and return-to-play programmes.

How it works

From voice note to the athlete’s programme

01

The coach dictates or describes the programme, or imports exercises and programmes they already use (spreadsheet, PDF or photo).

02

The software writes the sessions following the methodology and progression rules set by the coach.

03

The coach reviews, approves and assigns: no programme reaches the athlete without their confirmation.

04

The athlete finds the sessions in the app and logs loads and sets; the coach tracks adherence and check-ins.
