Does anyone here use Cycling Analytics as a way to track their training progress? I was thinking about dropping it in lieu of the new Calendar feature but I am a bit hesitant as I am familiar with CA and how to use the charts, etc. Am I missing something glaringly obvious when considering the dump?

If you use Cycling Analytics to track CTL, ATL and TSB you’ll be disappointed with what TrainerRoad offer at the moment. This is probably one of two things that is keeping me using TrainingPeaks. The other is the time in zone chart. Mike

Yeah, good point. I knew there was something that didn’t quite make me want to give up on CA. That’s exactly what I was overlooking. Sometimes it is too obvious to recognize.

I like the CA custom charting capability. I have an overlay chart of monthly TSS vs year and the time in zone charts, as mentioned, are good. Also, the monthly TSS trending in the traditional calendar view is useful.

Ditto, I’d happily pay my TP sub to TR if there was a PMC and charting facility. The Podcasts & this forum are worth a fair bit of that alone.:grinning:

Listening the podcast about their new features, it seems like they are attempting to replicate TP. But I use plans outside of TR and import the ride profiles, which I confirmed TR won’t be doing for some time if ever. The PMC and other analytics, especially aerobic decoupling, really help me find my…

Just used cycling analytics for one month trial. How is he able to calculate distance and mph when I don’t have s speedometer?

I’m using TrainerRoad together with FormBeat Cycling analytics https://www.formbeat.com which allows me to track all cycling metrics - from simple Form and Fitness to the extensive reports about how each metric improves over time.

Try https://intervals.icu - it’s free to use, although at $4/month it’s a nominal amount to pay that help Les David develop the site further.

I use an excel spreadsheet as my PMC and training load tracker.

TR does give you time in zone… but only for a given ride (not multiple grouped rides…). Hopefully this comes soon.
