Ramp test scheduled and cant replace it with AI

HI Team,

I just made a new training plan and it scheduled in ramp tests. We used to be able to swap them out and use AI instead - but this option is no longer available?

Am I missing something?

Or am I being encouraged to use both ramp and AI at the same time?

If the system doesn’t have enough data it recommends a ramp test. Have you been training recently?

Every day

.2400 activities

Not sure then. I think TR commented somewhere that if the model isn’t sure it recommends a ramp test as part of onboarding.

Are you using plan builder or ad hoc base adds?

You may need a ticket.

Yeah thanks I will do.

I have a very short lower curve from zwift races.

Ai insists my FTP is 318. All 4 of my races this week have had an IF over 1.00, with yesterday at 1.11 (48 mins).

Zwift thinks it’s 355.

But AI is probably correct for Intervals. I couldn’t do the longer intervals at 355.

So maybe TR is trying to sort that out? However I know theramp test will set it too high again.

So it seems like a tug of war between AI and FTP ramp test, is being scheduled.

It still may be worth raising a ticket if it’s a bug. But if you don’t mind doing the ramp test, then that’s the fastest.

Hey @SurplusArmy :slight_smile:

You can’t swap it out to use AI FTP Detection because your next detection is on the 20th.

These Ramp Tests should be workouts instead, so let me look at what’s going on here and get back to you.

Update: this looks to be a bug. A workaround in the meantime is to ignore the Ramp Test and do the Zwift Racing you have on every Tuesday :slight_smile:

I sent this same issue in to the TR team on 2/10. Ended up just deleting the ramp test and replacing it with the SS workout that the plan wanted me to do the following Tuesday, assuming things would then adjust themselves as I progress.
