The person behind CoreRise
I'm Antoine Boudet, a software engineer and an endurance athlete, and the founder of CoreRise. I build software with an obsessive focus on user experience, design, and data, and I train and race seriously: I finished IRONMAN® 70.3® Oceanside in 2026. CoreRise comes out of both worlds. The goal is simple: put the kind of coaching that used to live only with a good human coach (the nuance, the honesty, the real personalization) into the hands of every serious endurance athlete.
Background
- Software engineer: focused on user experience, product design, and data
- Endurance athlete · IRONMAN® 70.3® Oceanside 2026 finisher
- Founder of CoreRise: AI coaching platform for endurance athletes
- Heavy reader of endurance training research (physiology, nutrition, periodization)
Editorial philosophy
- What the science actually says, not what social media repeats. I explicitly correct widespread myths: the 180 spm rule, the 4 mmol/L anaerobic threshold, phase-based cycle prescriptions, sweet-spot year-round, "lactate causes the burn".
- Nuance over easy certainty. On contested topics (daily HRV readings, training advice that changes with your menstrual cycle phase, adjusting carbs by training block), I say when the evidence is thinner than popular content suggests.
- This hub is written by an athlete reading the research, not by a clinician. For injuries, menopause, or anything that needs a medical diagnosis, I point you to a qualified professional. It is not a substitute for medical advice.
- CoreRise does not replace human coaches. A planned feature will even let human coaches supervise Cora for their athletes. An always-available coach in your pocket: yes. Replacing the human: no.
