Thanks to some folks on a subreddit I was able to develop an LLM tool leveraging Garmin data to augment training. Including link to the repo and general description. Happy to receive feedback 🙂

# AI Coach Overview

The AI Coach is a personalized training assistant that connects to your **Garmin device data** to provide intelligent, data-driven coaching. It analyzes your fitness metrics, recovery status, training load, and history to give you tailored workout recommendations and insights.

## What It Does

The coach pulls real data from your Garmin Connect account — including heart rate, HRV, sleep, activities, and training stress — and uses it to:

– Recommend daily workouts based on how your body is actually recovering

– Build intelligent weekly training plans using polarized training principles (80% easy, 20% hard)

– Detect overtraining, injury risk, and detraining patterns

– Track your habits and alert you when beneficial routines break down

– Adjust plans based on weather conditions

– Help you log how you're feeling through a training diary
