For clubs
Sharing Tuesday night's workout has never been this easy: you publish it once, and it lands on the watch of everyone who joins.
Training squads
You create your club’s squad, your members join it, and that is that: every workout you publish reaches them as an invitation. They answer “Join” or “Decline”, they can change their mind, and you only plan once, for everyone.
Guided workouts
Warm-up, effort, recovery, repeated block, cool-down: you grab the blocks and drop them into the diagram. Set the targets as a percentage (of VO2max speed, of max heart rate, of FTP) and everyone runs the same workout at their own level. It then goes out to the watch or the bike computer of everyone who joins, and they know where they are in the set even when you are not standing behind them.

Sharing Tuesday night’s workout has never been this easy: you publish it, everyone says whether they are coming, and it lands on their watch. Your club coaches better, with a free tool, and everyone keeps their own data to themselves!
You create a training squad for your club, and your members join it with a link you pass around however you like: by email, in the club's WhatsApp group, on the noticeboard. From then on, every workout you publish reaches them automatically as an invitation, which they answer with “Join” or “Decline”. You plan once, for everyone, and if you edit the workout or move it, every copy follows.
No, and that is a design principle, not a setting. A member sees nothing of the other members, not even the list. And the squad coaches themselves never read anyone's training data: no activities, no statistics, no personal calendar. They plan and they offer workouts, that is all. If you want a coach to really follow your progress, that is Slek's individual coaching, and it requires your explicit consent.
Just one. Joining a squad, accepting or declining a workout and getting it on your watch is free for your members: they have nothing to subscribe to. Only creating the squad takes a Premium subscription, and the squad stays active as long as at least one of its coaches is Premium. The club itself pays nothing: no licence, no per-athlete fee, no hidden cost. A member who wants to go further (detailed analysis, individualized workouts, a personal season plan) takes Premium for themselves, and that is their own choice.
Slek sends guided workouts to Garmin, Suunto and Coros watches, and to Wahoo and Hammerhead Karoo bike computers. The member has nothing to do: they accept the workout in Slek, and it is there when they head out. Their watch then guides them step by step. They always know where they are in the set, even if they start ten minutes after everyone else.
With Slek, your coaches can plan, track and fine-tune every workout. See how they can get more out of their teams while saving time and easing their mental load!
It has been busy at Slek since June, with two new features that change quite a lot: training squads and a graphical builder for guided workouts. Until now Slek offered individual coaching: one coach, one athlete, complete monitoring. That is perfect for personal support, but far too much for a club that simply wants to send Tuesday night's workout to its members […]
The last few weeks have been (very) busy at Slek. We are not going to write an article for every change, but here is the round-up of things not to miss since the April notes. And we may as well warn you now: there is one big announcement. 🎉 On the programme: two-way calendar sync with Google, Apple or Outlook, and more […]
