Plan Builder
Other General Feedback
It continues to be confusing and hard to access my existing plan and edit it.
In >Career, I can edit the name and delete it but not access/see a summary/edit the specifics.
In >Training Plans>Plan Builder I can create a new plan but not see or access my current plan.
In >Calendar and click on the plan name at the top, I can select AI FTP/Ramp tests and delete the plan but do nothing else.
In >Calendar and click on the Phase name I can change volume, move workouts around and select max duration.
Why do I have to go to so many different places to do these?
If I make changes to volume or max duration, my phase “start” moves in the calendar. Which loses traceability of my actual original start date.
If I want to add a race beyond the initial length of the plan, I need to delete the plan and start again. I have to manually remember my actual original start date.
If I make a significant change to A events, the plan recalculates and forgets my selected workout day distribution and duration limits.
If I want to add an A race within 8/10 weeks I just cannot. I know this makes sense from the logic of periodising. But for me I have to select a Triathlon event as an A event to get a triathlon training plan with some allowance for run and swim distribution. If I selected an earlier or later cycling event as an A, I wouldn’t get any triathlon scheduling. So it would be really useful to be able to purposefully “break” the system occasionally.
To edit my plan, I have to find an A or B event in my calendar to edit or add a A/B/C event to my calendar and allow AT to adjust my plan.
What I want:
Edit my plan from anywhere it is listed - go directly into the plan editing flow.
Show my original plan volume and structure summary.
Let me go see my current plan overview page - the green bars view with phases listed out. I can’t even find this now. Can I see my training plan 'overview' page? - #9 by bobw
In short, please tidy up some or all of these niggles as they really do detract from the useability of the system. Within the constraints of coding./complexity etc I know you must have.
Then please document it. Beef up the FAQs and information on your support website for new and existing users. Some people will be using these features regularly. But some features are edited once or twice a year. We forget how it works!
