Big Goals, Unbound Gravel, Injury Prevention and More – Ask a Cycling Coach 346

Hey, @mcneese.chad tipped me off to the news so I listened to the podcast and am suitably impressed with what’s coming :slight_smile:

I also am looking forward to welcoming @Jonathan into triathlon on the best threads in the forum ;). Naturally, I’m sure Coach Jonathan won’t want to manually record his swims and runs in the TR Calendar right? :slight_smile:

My focus is on running this year so really I’m flying the flag for triathletes and when I return to multisport, my thoughts on the great leaps in adaptive training coming ftp estimation and prediction, adjusting intensity of workouts automatically are that they sound great and I wonder how the toll from swim and run could figure into those calculations?

Also I have some experience with a fully adaptive system from another company that does consume all three sport activities automatically. The problem I found with workout prescription that is constantly changing is that it’s hard to live with. Todays workout might switch from an easy session to a hard session, tomorrows workout might be cancelled if you go too hard today. That sort of uncertainty is hard to commit to.
