Your Bronco time becomes tomorrow's session.
Run the 1200m Bronco once. PitchEngine converts it into your Maximal Aerobic Speed and prescribes position-specific rugby conditioning — auto-regulated off your RPE, every session.
Launching soon on theApp StoreDevelops speed endurance for upcoming pitch session.
Most club players train off a plan built for nobody in particular.
A Front Row forward and an Outside Back need different volume, different rest, different recovery — but most amateur programs hand out the same session to both. PitchEngine starts from your actual Bronco result and your actual position group, not a template.
Four steps, every session.
Bronco Baseline
Run the 1200m shuttle. We apply a bodyweight-scaled turn-cost correction most calculators skip.
MAS Calculation
Your time converts directly to a Maximal Aerobic Speed, in m/s — the number every session is built from.
Position-Specific Prescription
An Outside Back and a Front Row forward get different volume and rest off the same MAS, calculated for their position group.
RPE Auto-Regulation
Three hard days running, an RPE of 8 or higher, or your weekly targets already met — the engine drops you to Active Recovery on its own.
The microdose that sets your baseline.
The Bronco is a 1200m shuttle test, run in three blocks with 90 seconds' rest between each. We don't just record your time — we track the drop-off between your first block and your last, because that gap is what actually tells you whether your engine holds up for eighty minutes, not just one good rep.
Log it live, or log it after.
Run the Live Stopwatch pitch-side and tap through every rep in real time, or batch-enter sets, reps, and RPE once the session's already done. Either way, it lands in the same weekly load.
Milestones you actually earn.
No streaks, no gamified nonsense — just a running count of completed activities against eight real tiers: 10, 15, 25, 30, 40, 50, 75, 100. Hit one, and it's in your Trophy Room for good.
Conditioning: 30/40 complete. 10 more until next achievement.
