Athletics
A decathlete or heptathlete has to sprint, hurdle, jump, throw and run the 800 or 1500 in the same week, and combined events carry the highest injury rate in athletics. Helios plans that week technique-first, caps the jumps and throws the injury data points at, and scores every session on effort.
27cited athletics workouts and 0 plans, scored as Session-RPE.
What your coach sees
Load is your rating times the minutes. A short javelin session at moderate effort under-describes what it costs the elbow, so the technical sessions carry their own caps on full-approach jumps and throws.
Acceleration and flying sprints, hurdle rhythm, long and high jump from short and full approaches, shot, discus and javelin, plyometrics, 400 m to 1500 m work, and sequence sessions that rehearse events in competition order. Each one carries its citations and says how thin the evidence is.
Beginners have the highest pole-vault injury rate, and feet-first landings drive it. The vault session asks you to confirm a coach, a standard pit, a pole rated for your weight and a taught landing before it goes on your calendar.
Load is session-RPE — your effort rating times the minutes — kept on its own channel and never converted into a TSS you didn't earn.
