ATHCON.APP

For coaches & trainersAthlete monitoring app

Turn $5,000 a year of spreadsheet work into zero.

From about $22/month. Athletes log sleep, fatigue and soreness on their phones. ATHCON does the math and flags only the athletes who are off their normal — so you can coach more teams, even remotely.

  • High school & college teams
  • Youth & club teams
  • Pro & semi-pro teams
  • Coaches working with several teams

Opening to teams outside Japan soon · No credit card required

* Based on 4 hours a week × 52 weeks at $25/hour of data collation ($5,200).

The problem

You know athlete monitoring matters. What is missing is a system you can keep running. Most coaches hit the same wall.

01

Half a day lost to spreadsheets every week

Collect paper forms and messages, copy them into a spreadsheet, build charts, share them. That is not what you were hired to do.

02

By the time you notice, it is too late

You spot the fatigued athlete right before the game — or after the injury. Nobody has time to read every athlete's numbers every day.

03

Records stop, and you cannot look back

Paper logs get skipped, and you cannot compare with the same point last season. Your data never becomes evidence for your coaching.

04

No way to keep up with remote teams

You would take on more teams, but if you are not on site you cannot tell how athletes are doing — so the opportunities slip away.

How it works

Step 1 · Athlete

Athletes tap sliders for sleep, fatigue, soreness and more. Nothing to install — it runs in the browser.

Step 2 · App

Not a team-wide cut-off: ATHCON measures how far each value is from that athlete's own 14-day baseline and color-codes it as great, normal, caution or alert.

Step 3 · Coach

No need to read every number. Flagged athletes are listed first, so you know exactly who to talk to — across every team you coach.

Features

No feature bloat. Everything is designed around one question: will a busy coach actually use this every day?

Training logs and %1RM

Log load and reps for each set and estimated 1RM is calculated automatically. Prescribe by %1RM and share periodized programs across teams.

Fitness testing and rankings

Change from the last test, rank within the team and S–A–B grades by category — all automatic.

Team and personal goals

Team goals set by coaches and personal goals set by athletes, color-coded side by side.

Role-based visibility

Coaches see the whole team; athletes see only their own data. Other athletes' numbers are never shown.

Manage every team in one place

Switch between the teams you coach on the same screen. Works for leagues and organizations with multiple teams.

Evidence

We do not build on hunches. Our staff, with experience coaching everyone from youth athletes to pros, turn research findings into product decisions.

Load monitoring

What the research found

Predicting injuries from a single load ratio (ACWR) is risky: the ratio carries mathematical distortions, and the choice of metrics and time windows makes false positives likely.

In ATHCON

Instead of one ratio, ATHCON flags each athlete's sleep, fatigue and soreness against their own baseline over the previous 14 days.

Impellizzeri FM, et al. Training Load and Its Role in Injury Prevention, Part 2. J Athl Train. 2020;55(9):893-901.doi:10.4085/1062-6050-501-19 ↗
Neuromuscular fatigue

What the research found

The countermovement jump (CMJ) can track fatigue and supercompensation. In a meta-analysis of 151 studies and 531 effect sizes, the average value detected fatigue more sensitively than the best value.

In ATHCON

Log jump and other test results by date, then view each athlete's trend and team comparisons in charts.

Endurance testing

What the research found

A systematic review of 248 studies and 9,440 participants on the Yo-Yo tests. For sub-elite soccer players, a YYIR1 difference of roughly 92–138 m is considered a meaningful change.

In ATHCON

Store fitness test results, including the Yo-Yo test, and see each athlete's change from last time and position within the team automatically.

Remote coaching

Athletes log data every day and you can review it from anywhere. Even if you visit once a week, you know how the other six days went — so you can take on teams in other cities.
