I’m watching this forum become dominated by discussion of AI FTP prediction and its many frustrations, and I wondered whether the TR team have any information on or concern about the effects this has on adherence to its training plans and protocols. I use adherence rather than compliance advisedly,…

Yeah, unfortunately, that’s enough to encounter this bug. Hang in there! :smiling_face_with_tear:

I haven’t seen anything related to that, but I’d be curious to know if we do/could pull that data.. :thinking:

As such, I have to bend the structure to my availability and to my capabilities on a day. I’ve used the same approach with …

I’m very much the same in regard to “gaming the system” I’m a robot when it comes to training, won’t miss or change a workout unless I’m dead!
