Was it a structured outdoor workout from TR?
So when is the adaptive training going to be released to the masses?

I’m in the same situation. My workaround will be picking the closest resembling workout from the TR category and seeing what happens.
When beta testing has uncovered most bugs and those have been fixed.

@Nate_Pearson @SeanHurley - are you able to share how many are on the beta wait list? It might be helpful in managing expectations for those on the waiting list…and by that I mean my expectations.
Thank you!!!

But what he really wanted to know (I think) is how many people are not yet added but want to be. (Like me too).

Ahh, I see. Something tells me they won’t share that, but who knows?
I had the same question of the TR team and they told me to do the workouts as I would normally do them. So if I wanted to take stuff outside, they told me to continue to do that (and I have because I love outdoor workouts!).
I got the impression they need both indoor and outdoor workouts to iron out the bugs. Since progression levels haven’t been updating with the outdoor structured workouts, I see me doing outdoor workouts as part of helping them figure out what the problems of it not counting could be.
@Dennis is correct. I know that 274 is the numerator, but what is the denominator?
Just trying to calibrate my expectations regarding how long I may be on the waiting list. Weeks? Months?
it seems like the majority of people that are in the Closed Beta, that are commenting on it are doing the bulk of there rides outside. I would think that it would be more beneficial to getting this out to the masses faster if they would have chosen more people that do the bulk of there rides Indooor TR workouts.

I have not done a single outside ride of any type, since getting into the original test group (not to mention not a single non-TR workout the prior 3 weeks before getting into AT). I and some others are also mostly inside from comments I have seen in different places.

I have no idea what the real split is on total riders and in/out distribution. But it is not all or even heavily weighted to outside from what I have seen.
I’m assuming it’s unlikely to be weeks - there were something like 2,500 watched the live podcast, and thus many more after that, so the waiting list could be 5-10,000 easily. As @chadmcneese as has pointed out, forum user numbers are well over 20,000 on their own. Obviously we expect that the 100+ addition each week will at some point ramp up to test scalability, but in terms of planning my training I’ve decided it’s best to plug on as I am (albeit with the help of TrainNow), hope for workout levels to appear soon, and otherwise hit refresh on my mail account multiple times a day!

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.
