Haha indeed. When you go from any other sport where the mentality is “bust your butt every time”, the concept of go slow to go fast is a bit foreign
Thank you all for your replies.
There is one thing in the interface that would benefit from improvement however. It would be nice if we could see that tomorrow will turn red or yellow when we plan a workout and not only after we’ve completed it. This is what really annoyed me and that prompted me to post. I did a planned TR workout and before the workout I had no alert whatsoever that my tomorrow would become red if I did it.
And as a further feature request, it would be encouraging to have a feature that shows you what your ideal ramp is in a clear manner.
@SarahLaverty
I just realized one thing. During the period I couldn’t walk or cycle, I did a daily hand-cycling session for one to one hour and a half, estimated TSS of 30 - 45 per day in order to avoid losing too much fitness. I can’t remember how I estimated TSS, whether it was strava or whether I did it based on heart rate.
In any case, TrainerRoad seems to have ignored all of this in its import from Strava, probably because they’re all classified as generic workouts on Strava.
Could this be the reason why it’s recommending a super flat ramp?
