Xert Forecast AI (XFAI) is Xert’s advanced training planner that uses artificial intelligence to automatically build a complete, personalized training plan. Unlike XATA, which recommends what to do today, Forecast AI “forecasts” your entire training journey – from your current fitness level to peak form on your Target Date.
Once you set your Program Type (Goal, Event or Race), Target Date, etc., Forecast AI uses your fitness signature, training history, and availability to generate a detailed day-by-day forecast of your training. This includes your expected daily XSS (Low, High, & Peak), Training Loads, Training Status, and projected Fitness Signature over time.
Forecast AI doesn’t simply fill your calendar with workouts – it predicts your progress and assigns XSS accordingly. It can adapt your plan to ensure you arrive at your event in top form, balancing progression, recovery, and event specificity.
Key Features and Capabilities
- AI-Generated Training Forecasts: Forecast AI creates a personalized training plan based on your current fitness and long-term goals, automatically accounting for your available training time and frequency.
- 3-Dimensional Fitness building: Forecast AI helps you train all 3 aspects of your fitness signature, not just FTP!
- Dynamic Adaptation: If your schedule changes or you adjust your training availability, you can click Adapt Forecast to instantly recalculate your plan based on your new inputs.
- Progressive Overload Management: Forecast AI intelligently increases your training volume and intensity over time, ensuring steady improvement without excessive fatigue.
- Event-Specific Peaking: The system adapts your training phases automatically – building base fitness, adding intensity, and tapering your workload as your Target Event Date approaches. The better your event readiness score, the more of a taper you’ll be provided.
- Highly Customizable: Forecast AI allows you to adjust your availability, polarization, periodization, recovery demands, & more!
- Real-Time Visualization & Feedback: Your Xert Fitness Planner displays Forecast AI’s predicted XSS, Training Load, and Fitness Signature progression – showing exactly how your fitness is expected to evolve. After each activity, Xert evaluates your performance against the plan and scores your results as On Target (Green), Slightly Off Target (Orange), or Off Target (Red) across all three energy systems.
How Forecast AI Works
Forecast AI uses your selected Training Availability, Program Type, and Training Parameters to simulate your fitness trajectory based on your desired outcome! It projects how your Low, High, and Peak Training Loads will evolve, predicting your future Threshold Power, HIE, and LTP at your goal date.

If you skip a workout, add extra training, or change your availability, the system automatically adjusts your plan when you Adapt Forecast, keeping your training trajectory aligned with your target outcomes.
When to Use Forecast AI
- You have a specific race, event, or performance goal.
- You want to see how your training today impacts your fitness weeks or months from now.
- You wish to see all your training for the coming weeks (or more) laid out clearly in front of you.
- You prefer a data-driven plan that adapts to your schedule and recovery automatically.
- You want to see how you will reach a desired outcome or prepare for a particular race.
If you prefer to plan day to day or one week at a time, XATA remains your go-to day-to-day advisor. But for long-term planning, Forecast AI provides the bigger picture.
