Mind of Matt — only with Team 80/20

3 million words. 400 articles. 30 books. One coach.

Mind of Matt is the most highly trained AI coach in existence. It has learned and absorbed 3 million words — more than 30 published books and 400 articles — and every one of those words is the work of one human: endurance coach and author Matt Fitzgerald. That gives Mind of Matt a clear perspective, a consistent voice, and a coherent philosophy of endurance coaching that other chatbots lack. And it doesn't coach in the abstract: before every answer, Mind of Matt reads your TrainingPeaks calendar — the training you've done and the week you have planned.

I can't get to a gym this week, how should I adjust or replace my strength training?

Coach Matt

If you're on the road and can't access your usual gym setup, you can still get quality strength work done with minimal equipment or even just bodyweight. The key is to keep your routine consistent, even if it looks a little different. Use a…

Frequently asked questions

What is Mind of Matt?

Mind of Matt is an AI endurance coach from 80/20 Endurance. It has three parts: a weekly training-analysis email every Monday, an on-demand chat with "Coach Matt," and a plan advisor that helps you find your next 80/20 training plan and put it on your TrainingPeaks calendar. All three draw on the published work of endurance coach and author Matt Fitzgerald and on your own TrainingPeaks training data.

How does Mind of Matt use my TrainingPeaks data?

Before it writes or answers anything, Mind of Matt reads your TrainingPeaks calendar — the workouts you've completed and the sessions you have planned. Every number it reports (volume, intensity balance, session details) is computed in code from your real data, never invented by the AI. The AI's job is to interpret and phrase, in Matt's voice.

Which memberships include Mind of Matt?

Mind of Matt is included with 80/20 Gold (annual or monthly) and 80/20 Silver. Mind of Matt needs an active TrainingPeaks Premium account: 80/20 Gold includes one, and with Silver you can add your own. Premium is also what lets coach chat read the full picture of your training — without it, chat sees a shorter window of your calendar. See membership options above.

How is Mind of Matt different from ChatGPT or other AI chatbots?

General chatbots draw on the whole internet and have no idea what you did in training this week. Mind of Matt is built on 3 million words — more than 30 books and 400 articles, all written by one coach, Matt Fitzgerald — which gives it a consistent voice and a coherent coaching philosophy. And it grounds every answer in your actual TrainingPeaks calendar.

What languages does Mind of Matt support?

During our current beta, your weekly analysis email can be written in English, Spanish, French, German, or Portuguese — choose your language in your account. The email's fixed sections stay in English for now, and in chat Coach Matt simply replies in whatever language you write.

Is my training data private? Can I delete it?

Yes. You can withdraw and permanently delete your Mind of Matt chat history and coaching memory at any time from your account. Sign-in uses a one-time email link — no password — and your identity is checked against the 80/20 Endurance coach roster on every request.
