How does the 10% rule work?

It increases weekly mileage by 10% each week to allow for physiological adaptation. You can use `calculate_next_step` to see your next step.

What is the volatility cap?

To prevent large jumps due to rounding, any increase exceeding 12% is capped. Use `validate_transition_safety` to check any jump.

Can I generate a full training plan?

Yes, use `generate_mileage_plan` with your starting and target mileage to get a complete weekly schedule.
