Wondering why did my future planned workouts get harder in workout level when I added a AI picked endurance ride for today. I thought by adding a new workout the future workouts would stay the same or adapt lower. Was TR giving me to correct intensity prior adding?
Screenshot before adding today’s AI picked endurance ride.
That is very strange, my only experience with something similar (it was the opposite!) to this is last week I had skipped my longer endurance ride on sunday because I wasn’t home until late. Knowing I had a pretty gnarly vo2max workout on Tuesday, and I had only done a couple runs since Thursdays Threshold work on trainer. I set a 30min short ride ‘warmup/openers’ Laurel for Monday ahead of Tuesdays workout. When I did that it reduced my hard workouts for Tuesday and Thursday!!! WTH?! If you’re supposed to use Laurel the day before a race or even day of as a warmup… why would it think it was going to kill my workouts for the week!?
Yeah this seems strange. Here are some screenshots of before and after adding an endurance ride in the future and how it changes the workouts. I am on a plan so it should have selected the best workouts for me already.
I don’t think you need to rebuild your plan, and I don’t think that would help anyway, unfortunately.
Those two workouts are pretty close, but if you’re worried about taking on the harder one, you should be able to find the original (Warlow +1) in Workout Alternates.
