Thanks. I missed / didn’t process that as I was work multitasking while watching the YouTube pod
We have them in our database but haven’t shown them. Doing a basic display is on the list…hopefully we get that done this winter.
Yah, I saw it’s like Whoop’s score but with more detail.
Our algorithm approach is just some math on TSS.
But then one I’m really excited about is the ML approach. That calculates a % likelihood of passing a specific workout for your specific fitness with all of your history included.
So whoop might say “It’s 89% today”, that doesn’t tell you if a workout is right for you.
With this ML approach, you could chose a productive workout and have a low chance of passing it one day because you’re tired, but a high chance of passing it another day.
But on that same day, you might have a lower chance of passing a stretch workout.
So it’s a combo of fatigue + fitness. I don’t know of anyone else who is doing it at that level.
You can use the website and scroll back and see your entire history. The graph on the top helps navigate too.
We turn the toggle on the plan pages if you’re over 50, but you can still turn it off. Everyone else has the toggle off by default.
But I really think masters plans are good for a lot more people than just 50+. We just had to come up with an age and thought this was pretty safe.
Yes, I think each day will have a tab called “indoor” and “outdoor”. Then on outdoor you could select:
- Group Ride
- Commute
- Solo Ride
- Other
Or something like that…what should we have in that list? It can’t be too long.
It’s just a constraint.
To give an extreme example, let’s say you can train 24/7, which is 168 hours in a week.
But our ML thinks you need 5 hours per week.
We’d prescribe 5 hours per week with the best intensity spacing that we can come up with.
My first pass would be:
Solo ride (I would lump a commute into this bucket)
Group Ride
Race
You would need the option for 2 a days. If I’m adding in bike commuting, there’s a high likely hood I will have two commutes: into work, work back home
Thanks and that would be awesome!
Thanks.
I should have said, I wish it were possible on mobile, either App, or web app, I don’t have a computer to access TR.
You can do this today in settings I believe. Put off “adapted plan/adaptive training”
That’s for the updates Nate. The mustache
works.
Just a very minor question, would it be possible to change the color coding of the “outside” workout?
Ever since it started appearing it’s a thorn in my eye.
Most events I’ve done are regular and have (mostly) the same course every year. Would it be possible to upload a route file into plan builder for an event so that the system gets an accurate picture of the distance and elevation profile to assist with calculating the optimum plan?
That never occurred to me. Thanks. A little roundabout. But useful. The trigger on the page would be still be useful for quick reference. For scratching my OCD.
+1 pleading for swim sync. It is very frustrating and slow remembering to go back and manually tick each swim - entering the corrected time, length and TSS. Three times a week.
Even if there are no deeper analysis/implications at present.
@Nate_Pearson
Thanks for the update, I love the transparency.
- IMHO the traffic light feature, which keeps an eye on fatigue, will ultimately be much more useful than workout levels for many users.
- Setting time limits for training days is a great feature and I am glad you will allow us to ask for longer endurance riders in the near future. That was the only thing I would have wanted.
- I would advertise Master’s Plans more broadly: in the past I had to reduce intensity (without reducing volume) for one four-week segment to deal with fatigue. That worked well. Now I have to toggle the Master’s Plan slider to get the same thing. (Sort of like accessibility features will often be beneficial to people without any impairments.)
- I am glad the calendar gets some attention, especially that you can browse different workout (alternates) without having to switch tabs.
Things not mentioned that I would find important
- Apple Health integration is a big one. Do you realize how frustrating it is when my iPhone reminds me that I haven’t made a dent in my exercise ring even though I spent 90 minutes on the bike? Plus, think of all the relevant information that you are missing out on. I reckon that sleep data would be relevant for the traffic light feature.
- Calendaring on mobile apps, functionality is, hmmm, very rudimentary. The only thing that currently works better on mobile as far as I can tell is browsing and picking alternate workouts.
Just get RunGap and your problem is solved. Or even better, upgrade to a Garmin watch if you are already using a Garmin Edge cycle computer.
Thanks for suggesting RunGap. I hadn’t heard of that app before.
Regarding the other solution, I don’t own any Garmin devices. The lack of Apple Health integration is not just about getting credit for workouts, but also about feeding back important info to TR (weight is a simple one, sleep another).
