# Add a Program as a training plan

Start with a Program when you want a week-by-week structure to make your own.
Open **Library > Programs**, choose a Program, then tap **Review Plan** to
check its dates and create a separate training plan.

## Choose a Program

Choose a Program that has loaded in **Library**. You do not need an existing
training plan. If the list cannot load, tap **Try Again**. If filters hide
the Programs you want to browse, tap **Clear Filters**.

## Give the Program your dates

1. Open **Library**.
2. Select **Programs**.
3. Open a Program.
4. Review **Week by Week** and **Before You Start** to check the planned
   training and preparation.
5. Tap **Review Plan**.
6. Enter a **Name** for your training plan.
7. Choose its start date in **Starts**.
8. Open **Duration** to check the Program's fixed length and end date.
9. Return to **New Plan**.
10. Open **Schedule** to check the dated workouts. Use **Week** to review
    each week's prescriptions.
11. Return to **New Plan**.
12. Use the toolbar save control, labeled **Create Plan** for accessibility.

## Your own dated training plan

Momentum saves your training plan and opens its details. Your plan keeps each
of the Program's weeks and its source attribution, with dates of its own.
Other training plans stay unchanged.

The details include your dates, the source Program, **Schedule**, and
**Completed Workouts**. Scheduled workouts describe the training ahead;
completed workouts record training you have finished.

## Keep the Program and your training separate

The Program stays reusable. Creating or changing your personal training plan
does not change that source Program, and adding it does not record any
completed workouts.

The Program's length is fixed during this creation review. Changing **Starts**
moves the dated schedule, so check the weeks before you create the plan.

If a source preview has no **Review Plan** action, open the Program from
**Library > Programs** instead. If creation reports **Couldn't Save Plan**,
check the details and retry from the same review.

## Choose the next day

- [Use the weekly Plan calendar](./use-weekly-calendar.md) to find the dated workouts.
- [Understand Momentum's training structure](../concepts/training-structure.md) to keep Programs, plans, and recorded training distinct.
