šŸ“£āš”ļø Power Records is Now Available for All Athletes!āš”ļøšŸ“£

Possible bug- it looks like it’s not respecting the ā€˜include with power records’ toggle that is set on past workouts. I have two years of road rides excluded because my Stages carbon meter was reading extremely high.

I am seeing the chart on my endurance workouts and some of the workouts further out in my schedule, just not the next 3 intense workouts on my calendar. Thank you for that info; this will be a very useful tool.

I’ve forwarded this to our engineers to take a look at.

Not as helpful when the power record was not a repeated effort. Hard to know if I can do 6 350w intervals because I’ve done 1 400w 5 minute internal. Would rather compare the time in power band(s) vs previous best workout time in power band(s).

ā€œIf the planned watts are close to or below your recent efforts, the workout is in the right rangeā€

I must be missing something. If every workout is below previous workouts of the same type, how do you achieve over reach. If you successfully complete a workout, shouldn’t the next workout of the same type be above the previous workout?

That’s not meant to imply that workouts should always be easier than your previous one. By ā€œClose toā€ we mean slightly (not drastically) harder than what you’ve recently done.

Sometimes, though, your next workout will be a little below your previous efforts. This happens when the AI detects you struggled with that workout and aren’t ready to push further, or if you’re building up fatigue and a harder workout won’t be productive.

You can view the entire work interval as well, which is where the NP is helpful.

Didn’t work for me, compares sweet spot efforts to VO2, or for normalised includes sprint efforts in the comparison.

You can choose a custom duration to only select certain workouts you’d like to compare.

This was mentioned earlier in thread, but I thought a screenshot could help with this potential bug. This workout has 2-minute intervals at 230 watts. The power records graph shows 230w up to 90 seconds, then drops all the way down to 212w for 2:00.

(This is an exciting new feature by the way! I’ve always found it motivating to play around with these graphs after workouts are completed)

Isn’t that just an artifact of how NP is calculated? NP is not average power.

I’ve got Power selected in the screenshot, not NP. (My hunch is that either something about the NP formula is leaking into the Power graph, or I’m misunderstanding how this is supposed to work.)

Did someone already record a bug with running power being included

Edit : My all-time charts are also messed up. FWIW, they never used to be.

Can you clarify what you mean by this? I alerted the team about your Run power and want to make sure we look into your all time charts, too.

I don’t follow your comment. Post a screenshot as that doesn’t make sense on what the feature does. It doesn’t compare zones; it compares power or NP over time period versus prior records.

You guys are putting out amazing features. Keep up the good work. Loving the new system…it’s working great for me.

We love to hear that!!

Sorry. The context is that my all-time charts all include my running power now.

I think what we need to see, now that TR uses both, is power and HR zones. I think TR is vastly under estimating my max HR and thats why it keeps reducing my workout levels. I did an easy workout today, as planned, and it was easy as it should be but TR reduced effort for all future easy days.

In addition, I’m greatly concerned that after a full block of working out, in my case, it’s predicting only a 2 watt (within the margin of error) gain? It would seem to me that the workout blocks should increase FTP, not hold it level. between the initial slashing of my FTP and the predicted FTP, I’m not slated to hit my tested FTP of just 4 weeks ago. I must be doing something wrong if following the plan to a tee that TR is providing produces no gains….

I’m looking at your calendar and all of your upcoming endurance workouts look spot on compared to today’s, which you said is as easy as it should be. They’re all at similar levels of intensity and similar workout levels. Your easy days should be relatively easy; this opens the door for harder workouts on your hard days. You have a Threshold 4.0 and a Sweet Spot 6.8 scheduled in the next week, which look like solidly productive workouts.

As for your FTP change, that 2 watt change comes after just 2 weeks since you accepted your previous detection. A watt a week added to your FTP is solid!
