Hey everyone! Our first version of Polarized Training Plans are now available to all TrainerRoad athletes. There is a lot of confusion surrounding Polarized Training, so we want to clearly communicate our intent and process behind these plans, as well as what these plans aren’t intended to be. Th…

[image] Pbase: Another vote for intervals.icu. I use this all the time when planning and tracking. Here’s an example. That is great, but I already have TrainerRoad, Garmin Connect and Strava. Let alone bestbikesplit and Mywindsock. I would like to keep my analysis of training in one place, …

Garmin connect has time in Power zones fyi and also hr but by individual workout. Also has powercurve in there. Veloviewer probably does just need to look. [image]

Yes I have time in zone per individual workout from TR, Garmin connect and Strava. I was after cumulative, over a week or training block. intervals.icu does do it it seems. However all this talk about polorized and training zones and different paptterns, it seems a no brainer for TR to provide …

You could look at your power duration curve for the last 42 - 90 days and use ~92% of your 8 minute power as a starting point. That should be pretty safe for the first interval unless you are on a bad day. Might be able to pick it up on the last two if on a good day. This is assuming you’ve semi…

Are you following one of the plans?

Yes I’m on Polarised Build HV, just I’m further along than most guys. I was doing Sustained HV Build, had 2 or 3 weeks done then switched rest to POL when it released. Just doing about last 5 weeks of it the new POL HV but my total build phase will still be 8 weeks. I had already made the sustained…

I typically choose low volume plans to ensure compliance and add in z2 rides or group rides as extras if I have time. If I were to do only the low volume 8 week plan is that enough volume to see any gains? I don’t want to commit to mid volume due to life during the week but I do plan on adding in r…
