Is there anyway of overruling progression levels / manually downgrading them? I have a custom workout that I like to do occasionally ( Log In to TrainerRoad ) that has been given a workout level of 9.2 VO2. The reality is that it is no where near that hard and having it rated as 9.2 screws up my adap…

Thanks for the reply Ivy. I’m looking forward to the update that properly categorizes outside rides (probably far more important than custom workouts) - that will be a massive step forward for AT.

I know this is a horse that has been beaten to multiple deaths. But how accurate are the levels we see of a custom Wo compared to a TR workout. My Wo this morning was 4x8 First one was a progression to ftp Second was 8x40s @ 130 / 20s recovery Third was progression to 105 ftp Fourth was progre…

[image] Joelrivera: But how accurate are the levels we see of a custom Wo compared to a TR workout. It depends… Sadly, there is no simple or singular answer. Some seem right on, while others are drastically off. Sprints seem to skew it in most cases I have seen, but again, nothing conc…

[image] Joelrivera: But how accurate are the levels we see of a custom Wo compared to a TR workout. TR roadmap has WL/PL 2.0 to address several things, including more accurate custom workout levels. When I looked the biggest issues were mixed workouts like what you’ve shown, and % FTP power l…

Its an interesting mix of threshold and vo2 work, maybe to keep things fresh and interesting. Who knows. By your HR it appears you stopped pedaling in the 2nd and 3rd intervals, long enough for a partial recovery. TR should really show the amount of stopped time, and pause the interval timer, versus…

According to the plan I had a ramp test to do. Instead I created a custom ftp test rated as 10.4 vo2max : 10 minutes at 89% 15 minutes from 89% to 97% 15 minutes from 97% to 120% (I stopped at 8 minutes this time) So with this single 33 minutes workout, my vo2max score went from 1 straight to ma…

Custom workouts and progression levels do not match up that good.
