training plans

Structured fitness regimens

Training plans are structured programs outlining exercises, workouts, or activities over a set period to achieve fitness or athletic goals.

A marathon training plan might span sixteen weeks with gradually increasing mileage.

Training plans specify what to do and when: I'm following a twelve-week training plan for my first triathlon.

The term extends beyond athletics to any systematic skill development: a training plan for new employees.
