# Edge vs phase.fitness

> Both plan lifting and running together, which is rarer than it should be. The difference is where the sessions live, and what else can be in the week.

## The short answer

Edge builds one adaptive plan for running, strength and HIIT from a questionnaire on your level, goals, races, schedule and equipment, and runs it in its own iOS, Android and web apps; Flexi Swap moves sessions and rebalances the week, and runs come in from Strava, Garmin, COROS or Apple Health. phase.fitness plans strength, cardio and calisthenics in one periodized program and sends each session out — to Hevy, Liftosaur, Garmin or Intervals.icu — then writes the next phase from what comes back.

## What Edge is

A hybrid training app that builds one adaptive plan for running, strength and HIIT, with mobility sessions, on iOS, Android and the web.

Every value below was read on Edge's own site (https://www.findyouredge.app) on 15 October 2026. "Not stated" means we could not find it on the pages we read, not that the product cannot do it.

## When Edge is the better choice

- You want a native app today, on Android as well as iPhone.
- Your week is running, strength and HIIT, and bodyweight skills are not part of it.
- You would rather train inside one app than send sessions to the ones you already use.

## When phase.fitness is

- You log strength in Hevy or Liftosaur, or train cardio from Garmin or Intervals.icu, and want the plan to land there.
- You train skills — a muscle-up, a front lever, a handstand — alongside the lifting and the running.
- You want to see the knowledge-base document each number comes from.

## Frequently asked questions

### Is phase.fitness an Edge alternative?

If you want strength and running planned together, both do it, and the difference is where the sessions go and what else is in the week. Edge runs its plan in its own app; phase.fitness sends the sessions to Hevy, Liftosaur, Garmin or Intervals.icu and adds bodyweight skills as a third modality.

### Does Edge plan calisthenics skills?

The pages we read in October 2026 describe running, strength, HIIT and mobility, and do not mention skill progressions such as the muscle-up or the front lever. phase.fitness programs those on progressions with mastery standards, in the same week as the rest.

### What does Edge cost?

Its site lists £19.99 a month, £49.99 every three months or £119.99 a year, after a seven-day free trial, as of October 2026. phase.fitness is $34.90 every three months or $104.70 a year, with no monthly plan.
