Peaked vs TrainHeroic
TrainHeroic is the deepest strength-and-conditioning programming tool in the market. If you're an S&C coach, a CrossFit coach, or a team performance coach, that depth is real.
Peaked is for coaches whose business needs more than programming — payments, contracts, CRM, mass email, team management, and a roster that scales without per-athlete fees.

The Real Cost: 50 Athletes

Where TrainHeroic still has the edge
We don't pretend to be everything. If these are critical to how you coach, TrainHeroic is the better fit today:
The deepest strength-and-conditioning programming tool
Multi-dimensional set feedback (reps, sets, weight, time, distance), advanced load analytics, AI periodization, plain-text blocks. If you're a serious S&C, CrossFit, or team-performance coach, TrainHeroic is built for you.
Team performance management
Programming for a squad, tracking compliance, and adjusting based on individual performance data — TrainHeroic does this better than anyone.
Marketplace distribution
TrainHeroic's marketplace can move pre-built programs to a real audience. Peaked doesn't have a marketplace.
If you coach competitive athletes or teams as your primary business — TrainHeroic is the right call. If you coach individuals who also need contracts, payments, and a CRM — Peaked is built for that.
Why coaches switch from TrainHeroic to Peaked
- 1
Per-athlete pricing punishes growth
TrainHeroic's base plan adds $1 per athlete plus marketplace fees. Peaked is flat. Once your roster crosses 30 active clients, the per-athlete model gets expensive.
- 2
The S&C tool isn't a business tool
TrainHeroic doesn't ship a CRM, contract module, mass email, lead capture, or waitlist tracking. Coaches running a full business operate it in spreadsheets and email until the seams show.
- 3
Check-ins are different from performance feedback
TrainHeroic excels at logging set/rep/load feedback. It's not built for daily/weekly check-in forms with photos, training videos, and lifestyle/nutrition data. Peaked is.
- 4
Most coaching businesses don't need a marketplace
For coaches who run private rosters, the marketplace is overhead — and the 2.9% fees only matter if you're selling there.
- 5
Team coaching outside of athletics needs different infrastructure
Peaked's team coaching dashboard is built for multi-coach businesses managing private rosters — different shape, different needs.
