Train to Mountain is the personalised mountaineering training app. The algorithm is adaptive: every Sunday it recalibrates the next week around what you actually completed and how recovered you are. Built for ambitious amateur mountain athletes in the 3,000-5,000m range.

Get your Zone 2 heart rate range in bpm. Three methods, from a simple age-based estimate to the LTHR-based zones endurance coaches actually use.
Open the calculator → Fuelling Endurance Fuelling CalculatorYour carbs, fluid and sodium per hour for long hikes, climbs and summit days. Enter your weight, duration and conditions, get a per-hour plan plus pre and post fuel.
Open the calculator → Planning Peak Progression PlannerMap your peak ladder. Pick your experience, region, and goal peak. Output: a 2 to 4 peak progression with typical training time for each step and links to each peak training plan.
Open the planner → Muscular endurance Muscular Endurance CalculatorA 60-second muscular endurance readiness score for your goal peak. Three quick inputs, science-backed scoring, and the specific gap to close before summit day.
Open the calculator → Vertical conversion StairMaster CalculatorConvert StairMaster floors and steps to vertical gain in metres and feet. Useful for translating treadmill or stair-machine sessions into the unit mountain training actually cares about.
Open the calculator → Vertical conversion Treadmill Incline CalculatorConvert treadmill incline percent and distance into vertical gain in metres and feet. For simulating peak-specific terrain when you cannot access real vertical regularly.
Open the calculator →Every serious mountain athlete is living the same fragmented reality. A PDF plan that never updates. A wearable nobody reads. Screenshots pasted into ChatGPT. YouTube workouts. Forum threads with conflicting advice. None of it talks to each other, none of it knows your summit date, and none of it adapts when life happens.
The four problems every mountain athlete lives with, and exactly how TTM closes each one.
TTM guides every step of your preparation - from setting your objective to the final taper before your attempt.
TTM is built for athletes with mountain goals - whether you're training next to hills and altitude or building your base from a flat urban environment. The platform knows the difference.
Most AI tools respond to questions. TTM's AI coaches you proactively - building your program, checking in daily, and recalibrating your plan based on what actually happened this week.
The Summit Readiness Score (SRS) combines five honest dimensions of mountain preparation into a single daily number: fitness, vertical capacity, long-day rehearsal, descent readiness, and training consistency. You wake up and know whether today is a build day, a recovery day, or a taper day. When the projected gap to your target is too big to close safely, the algorithm tells you in time to make a real decision, without guilt. Try the public mountaineering readiness calculator to see how it works.
TTM's algorithm isn't a wrapper around generic training principles. It's a multi-model system that tracks your physiology, models your adaptation, and generates prescriptions based on your specific objective, including the descent half of summit day that other platforms ignore.
It is dawn at 4,300m. You can see your breath. The path ahead is steeper than yesterday. You take the first ten steps. Then the next ten. Then the next. Your legs cooperate. You are not negotiating with them. You trained for this exact morning, twelve weeks ago, on a Tuesday, on a treadmill, while it was raining outside. It worked.
