🎉 🎉 🎉 Introducing Adaptive Training! 🎉 🎉 🎉

I suspect the majority of people who feel compelled to post are likely doing so because a problem was observed. Since outdoor workouts aren’t getting the same AT treatment as indoor workouts for the lucky close-beta participants, I think probably that is impacting your perception.

Haha! I have accepted to do the same. Getting the workout levels will at least help make the wait a little more bearable.

Yes, they were. And my upcoming workouts, i was planning to do them outside… but not very certain if it counts on the progression…

Planned TR workouts, switched to “Outside” setting, performed and completed per the workout on the bike head unit outside, and then sync’d back to TR… ARE COUNTED in Progression Levels as of now.

So, I’ve got decision(s) to make, go with the originally designed weekend workouts and get my level up, or opt to try the gentler progression with the new AT feature. What say you? I’m on the fence because I traditionally haven’t felt much difficulty in these weekend workouts, but on the other hand I’d like to really test out AT and not just ignore all it’s throwing at me

Do Saturday as AT suggests, rate appropriately, see what it says for Sunday.

@BCrossen Right, I’ll experiment with this and see how it go :slight_smile:

I’ve been doing weekends outside and week days indoors. In my conversations with TR about bugs, I’ve asked if there is anything I could do to provide better testing. They’ve been very clear, “Use our product as you normally would.”

As I stated in my earlier post, this shows me they need the data from indoors and outdoors to make sure they squash bugs from all angles. If all we did was indoor rides, then they wouldn’t have the experiences from outdoors to find bugs. They’ve got to have both to make it a better experience by the time it fully releases to everyone.

And frankly the indoor experience for me hasn’t had many issues thus far (minor bugs they’ve either already fixed or are currently working on), so riding outdoors more often is probably a better call to get more experiences to potentially find more bugs so they can get squashed. And if that happense, more people get let in.

Same for me. On a weekly basis, I’m only doing approx. 2 rides indoor and 4 outdoor, but longer and unstructured when a do outdoor rides.

On point here, i was about to email them too. But I guess this is what I’ll use it normally too. Thanks.

Unless you use wahoo, in which case it’s broken.

I haven’t seen any news indicating that issue was fixed and a look at trainnow recommendations suggests it’s still broken.

Good point. At least its not broken on TR’s side. :stuck_out_tongue:

My understanding is that it was in that they are not able to process the data to ID compliance. All the laps are there with times and power and the association is set in the calendar.

I saw something about wahoo issues with displaying them, but the inability to interpret them when uploaded sounds like a major problem.

Probably

When is the IPO?

It’s on the list. Don’t know when.

Just sharing something strange that happened to my plan when I joined AT two days ago. I accepted all recommendations but seems like I have two days where I have 2 bike sessions next week, which is a bit too much from my current Olympic Tri Mid-volume plan. I usually just have three bike workouts per week, same as the rest of the schedule until race day. I have reported this to support, but wondering if anyone here has a similar experience.

Any chance you had rides left on the calendar form a prior plan you applied then deleted?

Sometimes, if you shift around days, they will break free from the plan and not delete even though you delete the source plan. Those might be artifacts is one possibility, and may need to be deleted manually if so.

Indeed! Before I join the beta program, I was moving around some workouts for this week, then when AT recommended some workouts, it was just added without deleting the workouts that they were suppose to replace. Makes sense, thank you .

So I accepted the adaptations and am just going with it, did the prescribed workout today (categorized it as moderate) and have new recommendations going forward

So a little longer/slightly harder tomorrow, but the following week all appear to be slightly easier/gradual progressions

I did have an endurance rating of 7.8 but that’s gone down to 6.2 two weeks after my 7.8 rated rides. Not sure if endurance decays that quickly in 2 weeks but not concerned about that at all
