Lose weight

Get moving every week, and stick with it.

When it comes to losing weight, the hardest part isn't starting, it's sticking with it. Runayo gives you a plan at your own pace, from 3 to 12 weeks: easy runs, strength work at home, and a coach who adjusts when your week goes off the rails.

With or without a watch. All you need is a mobile number, no password.

Getting started

Three steps, and your plan is ready.

  1. Pick your rhythm

    How many weeks, how many sessions, with or without running. Home strength work, if you want it.

  2. Share your baseline

    Your age, your height, your weight if you want to track it over time, and what you already do. You fill it all in by hand.

  3. Run it, tick it, keep it up

    Every workout you complete gets ticked off. Busy week? Just say so, and the plan adapts instead of making you feel guilty.

The logbook

What your coach does for you.

  1. Bulgarian split squat3 × 10 per side · 3 s down, 1 s up · 60 s rest
  2. Eccentric single-leg calf raise3 × 12 per side · 4 s down, 1 s up · 60 s rest
  3. Side plank3 × 30 s per side · 30 s rest

Strength work, movement by movement

Every strength session lists its moves, sets, tempo and rest, and each move has its own card: how to do it, the mistakes to avoid, and a figure showing you the way.

Questions

What runners ask us.

How much weight will I lose?
We won't promise any numbers: it also depends on your diet, your sleep and your body. What Runayo gives you is regular, well-adapted activity, plus your weight curve if you want to track it.
I don't like running, or I can't. What then?
The plan can work without running: guided strength work at home, move by move. Or with a walk-run approach, to ease into it.
I haven't done any sport in a long time. Is it risky?
The plan starts below what you think you can handle, and eases off if you tell it to. After a long break, or with a health issue, getting medical advice before you start back is still a good idea.

Consistency starts with one first workout.

Watch or no watch, a mobile number is enough.
