How it works

The program’s own rules, as Catalyst runs them.

Train Monday through Saturday for ten weeks, using Sunday for rest, stretching, hydration and recovery. Counts of 2, 4 or 6 describe the instructor’s cadence, not seconds or extra reps. Follow the preparation holds and the two-second exhaled end-range holds in AIS. Choose your pool setup and any optional extra exercise, and track food, sleep, fatigue and energy on the 10-to-1 scale. Check your feet and equipment before hikes. Seek appropriate professional advice on medical readiness and safe environmental conditions.

What you need

Everything its exercises call for. Missing something? The app suggests swaps that train the same thing.

  • Swimming pool
  • Pull-up bar
  • Resistance bands
  • Rucksack
