Episode 8: How I Use AI as a Triathlon Coach and Athlete

AI is part of my life every day — both as a triathlon coach and as an athlete.But I do not use every AI tool for the same job.In Episode 8 of Coach Erin Says, I explain why I trust TriDot’s FitLogic AI with the data-driven side of endurance training, where ChatGPT fits into my coaching process, and why I believe AI can actually make coaching more human, not less.In this episode, I talk about:Why I do not ask ChatGPT to write my training planWhat made me comfortable trusting FitLogic with my own trainingHow I use FitLogic differently as an athlete and as a coachThe difference between quantitative training data and the human information a coach still needsHow ChatGPT helps me organize information, communicate, reflect, and think through coachingWhat I will never outsource to AIWhether AI will eventually replace triathlon coachesFor me, the goal is not to use technology to remove the coach.It is to let technology handle the things it does well so I can spend more time doing the part that matters most: coaching the human behind the numbers.AI can know your numbers. Your coach should know you.Want to dive deeper into this topic?Check out the companion blog:Should You Use ChatGPT to Create Your Triathlon Training Plan?I explain where ChatGPT can help triathletes, where purpose-built endurance AI like FitLogic fits, and why technology should support—not replace—the human side of coaching.Read it here: https://www.3goalsmultisport.com/should-chatgpt-write-your-triathlon-training-plan/Have a question you’d like me to answer on a future episode?
