New Training Plans

Yeah, we kinda noticed, what with Teams also dying for a couple of hours.

Sorry for causing a ruckus @mcneese.chad @NOVA. No personal disrespect was intended, and everyone should be free to express their opinions and concerns. I actually agree that TR needs to respond to the questions brought up here, communicate what their plan for addressing the known issues are, and an explanation for how they will prevent this type of thing from happening in the future.

Anyway - personally I’ve found that moving to a mid-volume plan for the time being from my current low volume +z2 season will work out reasonably well for the time being. I’m liking the variety of new workouts I haven’t done before!

Now everything is back to normal, and they trained happily ever after.

Hmmm Build plans still look like they have not switched back to the old versions.

Edit: Good to hear that fixes are at least starting to come out!

Wait. Mary Austin is still alive? I already sent flowers!

Please keep all posts relevant to the topic. This is clearly a TR and Cycling meme. :sweat_smile:

Hey everyone, as we mentioned above we had some technical issues rolling out the new plans yesterday. They’ve all been temporarily reverted to their previous version. We’re working on fixing things up and will re-release them soon. Sorry for the confusion!

Mine blown by this forum… Months of complaining off too much intensity, the initial reaction is to give out they’re too easy…

Wow, a small cloud hiccup and imidiatly a thread is up with 200 posts and a lot of outrage and TR bashing…
Hopefully the atmosphere on this forum will return to a more friendly and positive mode…

Thanks @SeanHurley !

Edit: Now I’m not so sure I want to revert back to the old plans :joy:

Without going too far off topic…

I believe that we all need to pause a moment, consider our activity on the forum, and understand what each of us is doing (or not doing) to make this a great place to spend time.

It’s no secret that there have been some contentious topics (and even relatively innocuous ones) that have turned more than ugly. I just hope that people can think about their role in this climate, and try to improve if at all possible, so we can all benefit from what this platform has to offer.

Edit to add, a link to the more appropriate topic for continued discussion about forum friction:

  • What is happening with the forum?

  • I made a deliberate OT comment above, because this topic turned ugly and was an example of what I think is not appropriate or beneficial to anyone. For anyone interested in building upon these thoughts, let’s move that to the topic linked above. Thanks for your time and consideration :smiley:

Fair point Chad.
I also feel like that in recent weeks, things have escalated quite dramatically.
I like(d) the forum because it was a great place to have a conversation.
I do feel like, at the moment, it’s the best place to pick a fight.

No you missed it, now we’re complaining that they’ve taken the too easy plans away - keep up!!

Could somebody check if the workouts in the plan that Nate was following matched any of the workouts in any of the new plans?

Both responses by TR staff have been cryptic, we don’t know if the plan workouts were mixed up, if they weren’t meant to be released at all.

I remember @Nate_Pearson said they could cure cancer and people would still have issues about it.

Cyclists are a fickle bunch.

Curing cancer would encourage people to continue to make poor lifestyle choices and fuel the obesity epidemic. How dare they.

Nate has been using AT from my understanding - so the workouts he has been doing will not match up with any plan. New or old.

Thanks @SeanHurley

So I take it that the changes introduced yesterday were wrong and that the recommendation would be to update to the previous plan. Is that TR recommendation for those of us that updated our plans yesterday?

Thanks
