# Create and manage a training plan

You can give a new training block its own plan without ending another.
Open **Plan > Add > Add Plan** to create an empty training plan, or use
**Manage Plans** in Plan's options menu to open one you already use.

## Start fresh or open a training plan

You do not need an existing training plan to create one. To manage a plan,
open one you already have. The available actions depend on its state:
**Resume Plan** applies only to a paused plan, and **End Plan** applies to an
active or paused plan.

## Set up and manage your training plan

### Create an empty plan

1. Open **Plan**.
2. Open **Add**.
3. Tap **Add Plan**.
4. Enter a **Plan name**.
5. Choose today or a future date in **Starts**.
6. Select **Duration**: **Ongoing** or **Ends on a Date**.
7. If you chose **Ends on a Date**, choose **Ends** on or after the start date.
8. Use the toolbar save control, labeled **Create Plan** for accessibility.

### Open an existing plan

1. Open Plan's options menu.
2. Tap **Manage Plans**.
3. Select **Active** or **Past**. Active includes paused plans; Past includes
   completed and ended plans.
4. Open the training plan.
5. Open its **Manage plan** menu.

Choose the action you need below.

### Change its name or dates

1. Select **Edit Plan**.
2. Change **Name** or **Starts** as needed.
3. To change the ending, open **Duration**.
4. Select **Ongoing** or **Ends on a Date**.
5. If you chose **Ends on a Date**, choose **Ends**.
6. Return to **Edit Plan**.
7. Use the toolbar save control, labeled **Save Changes** for accessibility.

Skip steps 3–6 if you only changed the name or start date.

### Make a copy

1. Select **Duplicate Plan**.
2. Review the confirmation: the copy starts today and does not copy completed
   history.
3. Tap **Duplicate**.

### End a plan

1. Select **End Plan**.
2. Review the confirmation: ending stops future scheduling but keeps the plan
   and completed history.
3. Tap **End Plan** to confirm.

### Resume a paused plan

1. Select **Resume Plan** when it is available.
2. Review the confirmation.
3. Tap **Resume** to return the plan to active scheduling.

## Keep each plan independent

Creation saves an empty active training plan; it does not add workouts.
Duplication creates a separate active copy without changing the original.
Edits apply to the selected personal plan, not its source Program.

Ending or resuming a plan leaves its completed history intact. Ending is not
completion, and an ended plan cannot use **Resume Plan**.

## Keep recorded work intact

Date changes cannot move or remove past or completed workouts. If **Keep Past
Workouts** appears, choose dates that retain them.

Workout changes saved from **Schedule** are separate from the plan-details
draft. Discarding unsaved plan details does not undo those saved workouts.

If a management message says the plan changed elsewhere, use **Refresh**
before trying another action. If the change saved but the details could not
refresh, refresh them rather than repeat the change. For a save failure, use
**Try Again** when offered.

## Choose what comes next

- [Use the weekly Plan calendar](./use-weekly-calendar.md) to follow the dates across your training plans.
- [Understand Momentum's training structure](../concepts/training-structure.md) to distinguish a plan, its source Program, and completed history.
