Introduction
Slek is a web application (optimized for mobile) designed to help you plan and track your sports season.
"Failing to plan is planning to fail" (Alan Lakein)
A season plan is essential to achieve your goals even though, paradoxically, your plan is meant to be lived according to life's uncertainties (work constraints, personal, health, injury...). That's why Slek allows you to adapt it so easily.
Slek helps you analyze all the data you want that automatically comes from the main sports watch brands.
If you don't really like data and prefer to focus on your feelings, you just answer two questions minimum after each session:
How long did my workout last? What was my perceived effort?
... and you're done!
