šŸŽ‰ šŸŽ‰ šŸŽ‰ Introducing Adaptive Training! šŸŽ‰ šŸŽ‰ šŸŽ‰

This is me 100% of the time. It’s not a non-plan in reality, but my own custom plan.

Hi @Nate_Pearson. I had a recent ramp test where I unfortunately lost power connection at the end. Not sure how much longer I would have been able to hold on but at that point 30sec-1min makes a huge difference
I did not accept the new suggested ftp, but will I be able to ā€œuncheckā€ or delete workouts like this so that it’s not ā€œcalculatedā€ towards other workouts in the adaptive training?

Sorry… last question. I’m looking at my iPhone app and can’t find it, how do I get the beta version ?
Thanks!!

Sorry if already answered, but for the post-workout RPE survey… in the scenario that we turn down the workout because it was far too difficult and made it do-able what should the grade be? Based on what we turned it down to, or based on the fact that we had to turn it down so that would put it in the ā€œvery hard/all outā€ category? What if we completely turn down a z5 ride to z2 making it essentially easy, is the right answer here to say it was an easy workout?

It might be nice if there was an on/off switch that lets you decide wether or not AT includes it. I understand the survey solves that problem in most cases but in some edge cases like yours, survey might be skipped?

In that case you’d get a different survey, essentially asking why you feel you weren’t able to complete the workout to the original target power. It has options like poor sleep, training fatigue, device issues, etc.

I hope the goal is for us to tell the app how much volume we have time for and the app can set the volume of the workouts. Add endurance to fill the unused time but mark it so it’s ready to know that workout can be skipped?

Edit - I should have read more before responding. Seems like that is the goal

Are you only planning to predict people’s ftp and leaving the other zones as percent of ftp or are you planning to measure the other zones too? Zone 2 in adaptive training
My primary interest is to have the right target wattage for endurance workouts which in guessing could have a big impact on the polarized training plans since they depend on that effort level

So I’m wondering if the AI will penalize me for bombing the cool downs at the end.

I dont have the time to read through the 1366 posts so I went to TR home page and there I see a beta download and I thought everyone is in so I downloaded it. Now I have (2) TR loaded. Trying to find out if I have AT or not is not very easy. So Im looking through the 1366 posts and it seems like I dont have it. But I have a beta marked icon on my desktop? Should not be this difficult.

You don’t have it. you have to sign up to be out in the waiting list which may take awhile. Be patient, I’m sure there will be way more threads when more people get it

Just have to mention…

How cool is it for the CEO of a company to come on the forum regularly to answer questions, criticisms and expand on limitations/goals of the product. It’s not everywhere that happens, heck…maybe not anywhere.

Beta :+1:

It would be interesting to see if, for example, there are certain athletes where a LV plan plus 2 endurance rides a week results in higher FTP (or other relevant performance measure) than a MV plan. Maybe some masters athletes may fall in this category?

How is that different to what Strava segments do? I don’t think I understand what you mean but I am intrigued because I’m frequent user of a limited number of routes

Isn’t that just a polarized plan?

Not necessarily. You have to look at the intensity of each of the three ā€œhardā€ workouts that make up most LV plans. They can range from Anaerobic to VO2 Max (which are in POL Z3) down to SS and Threshold (that are below or at the edge of POL Z3) and sometimes regularly Tempo (POL Z2).

Following a typical POL plan will avoid the Tempo and SS, and may limit the Threshold workout too. These can get used for specificity training, but aren’t part of the stereotypes POL plan.

Doing a LV plan plus endurance rides can be POL on some cases, but also Pyramidal in other cases. It’s not cut and dry until you look at the specific plans of interest (Base vs Build vs Specialty).

Probably pyramidal.
