Give the Gift of Coaching

Help the Athlete in Your Life Ride Faster, Feel Stronger, and Start the New Year With Purpose

If you're looking for a meaningful gift for your cyclist,  nothing delivers more impact than coaching. Gear is great, but guidance is transformative. Whether your athlete is training for an event, chasing PRs, rebuilding consistency, or just needs more structure and motivation, coaching gives them what they truly want:

✔ A personalized plan
✔ Daily motivation
✔ Expert guidance
✔ Accountability
✔ Real, measurable improvement

This year, FasCat makes it easy to give coaching in two ways:

  1. AI Coaching with the CoachCat App — smart, adaptive training built on 20 years of FasCat knowledge.

  2. Personal 1:1 Coaching — work directly with a FasCat Coach for fully customized, hands-on support.

Each option makes a powerful gift. Here’s how they work — and how to purchase and deliver them.


🎁 Option 1: Give the CoachCat App (AI Coaching)

CoachCat is our AI-powered coaching system that delivers the same FasCat training philosophy athletes have trusted for decades. It builds personalized training plans, adapts to weekly life constraints, analyzes data, and tells the athlete exactly what to do next. It’s like giving someone their own private coach in their pocket — 24/7.

How to Gift the CoachCat App

Follow these simple steps:

1. Create a CoachCat account using their email address.
This ensures the app and subscription belong directly to the person you're gifting it to.

Choose a password you can easily share with them -

2. Choose the subscription you want to gift.
You can select monthly, annual of Lifetime CoachCat access.

3. Complete checkout.
Once purchased, your recipient will receive login access at their email address.

4. (Optional) Add a personal message.
Tell them why you believe in them — and why you chose to give the gift of coaching.

It’s fast, meaningful, and gives them motivation all year long.

You can pay as long as you like or we can swap our to your recipients card at a later time.


🎁 Option 2: Give Personal 1:1 Coaching

For athletes who want the highest level of support, accountability, and human expertise, 1:1 coaching is the gold standard. They’ll work directly with one of our FasCat Coaches who will design custom training, analyze their data weekly, communicate regularly, and help them achieve their biggest goals.

This is the perfect gift for:

  • Athletes training for a major event or season

  • Masters athletes who value structure and injury-free progress

  • Riders rwho want to accelerate their improvement

  • Anyone who thrives with hands-on guidance and encouragement

How to Gift 1:1 Coaching

We’ve made the process simple during the holiday season:

1. Purchase any 1:1 Coaching Level (Hunt, Chase, or Catch).

2. We will email you a beautifully designed PDF gift letter.

  • Gift letters are emailed by Noon MST on December 24th (for stocking stuffers)

  • Valid for all purchases made by midnight on December 23rd

This letter makes the gift feel official, personal, and exciting to open.


🎄 Why Coaching Makes the Best Gift

  • It lasts far beyond the holidays

  • It inspires real-life change and improvement

  • It’s deeply personal and thoughtful

  • It shows belief in someone’s goals

  • It turns motivation into results

For athletes, there is nothing more valuable than a plan, a coach, and a path forward.


🏁 Give a Gift That Helps Them Get Faster

This holiday season, help the athlete in your life start the new year with purpose — and the tools to reach their potential. Whether through CoachCat AI Coaching or personal 1:1 coaching, you’re giving them something far more meaningful than gear:

You’re giving them confidence, motivation, and the ability to improve.
