But following that, I had a message saying I had two plans overlapping and I had to delete one.
It seems it’s because I have two A races.
So I deleted the original plan to recreate it, and TrainerRoad Plan builder says me: “One A race per plan. Create a separate plan if you’re peaking for multiple events.”
Is it new?
I followed my tests: I created a second plan for my second A event and I only have one Specialty week after few Build weeks, normal ?
And when I want to edit my first plan to change the start date, Plan Builder doesn’t find my event anymore ???
@SeanHurley, you can play with my calendar if necessary, I actually have a little injury, no bike…
Hey there,
Sorry we didn’t get around to responding to this earlier. Yes, we now restrict each plan to one A event to better focus the structure of the plan on that event. I’ll take a look at your calendar to make sure things are working as expected regarding the questions specific to your plan.
I’ve just experienced something similar. With today’s system update I attempted to make a change to my current plan, which runs from November 1, 2025, through October 11, 2026, and contains three A events (each separated by more than eight weeks) and multiple B- and C-priority races. The plan, which I generated in late October, has handled a few changes since (modifying my weekly schedule, adding/removing/changing event dates, etc), all with no problems.
With today’s addition of the “Dynamic Endurance” feature I decided to edit my weekly schedule, changing both my mid-week and Sunday endurance rides from fixed length to dynamic. But when the system attempted to re-generate my plan I got an “Overlapping Training Plan” notification, with the revised plan apparently conflicting with two plans (that I never created) that appear to be named after the second and third A priority events on my race schedule. And, weirdly, it’s stating that there’s no conflict with the third one, even though it’s listed and the dates do overlap (I’ve included a screen shot.)
Again, though, I never created the two plans it’s indicating on the warning…the only plan I have, or have ever, generated is the top one entitled “2026 Race Season”.
I’m now stuck in this warning limbo, without any apparent way to back out of the plan modification/generation routine nor access anything on TR, neither on the apps nor on the www interface (when I fire TR up on any platform I get immediately sent to the Overlapping Plans warning) but I’m concerned about choosing to delete the two “new” training plans that are named after A events, in fear that it’s gonna nuke everything.
All I wanted to do was to change my endurance days to Dynamic!!
Wow, seriously? So now there’s no way to have a cohesive, year-long integrated training plan if you’ve got more than a single A-priority race over the course of the entire season?
But when it is building the plan it looks at your history and knows what you did recently and starts your plan based on that. This may be changing with the new stuff but I can’t imagine it does this any different and probably does it much better than before.
I don’t see how starting the plan after some recovery from the first A race would result in anything different from one plan with both as far as how it would build your plan.
Hey everyone, appreciate you raising this and want to give some context on why we made this change for now.
The one-A-event-per-plan rule is new and intentional. It’s required for TrainerRoad AI to work properly, particularly Dynamic Endurance. Here’s why:
Dynamic Endurance builds your endurance rides based on your plan’s goal. It looks at your A event and progressively extends your rides as you get stronger, preparing you specifically for that event’s demands. With multiple A events in one plan, the system can’t optimize for both. Should it build you up for a 90-minute crit or a 6-hour gravel event? Those require different endurance progressions.
The same logic applies to how TrainerRoad AI picks workouts, adjusts difficulty, and predicts your FTP. All of it works better when the plan has a single, clear target.
You can still race a full season with multiple A events. You’ll just create separate plans, each focused on one peak. TrainerRoad AI will continuously analyze your training history to make sure you’re getting the right volume with the best workouts, bespoke to your fitness and goals.
@Velolion - I’m going to DM you, something is definitely up with your calendar. We’ll get this sorted, and I’m sorry for the troubles.
We know this is a workflow change as of now. But it enables TrainerRoad AI to do what it’s designed to do: pick the right workouts, at the right difficulty, building toward your goal. That only works when it knows exactly what that goal is.
And this is something we’ll iterate on to make the experience of building a plan as seamless as possible, while working with all the new TR AI features. We brainstormed multiple ways to handle this, but the reality is that it’s complicated under the hood and a majority of plans aren’t built towards multiple A-events.
Let us know if you have questions or run into issues. We’re paying close attention to feedback as everyone adjusts.
Similar issue. Checked plan volume and it told me I had overlap. Got rid of one and it blew out the plan I started December 1st. Now when I try to generate a new plan, it ignores the fact the I was starting build phase this week because I just finished 6 weeks of base and wants to start with base all over again. So I got rid of that to try a different way and then lost all my events so I’ll have to start over again. Frustrating to say the least. I was trying to play with it since the update had my workouts getting progressively easier for three weeks during a build phase resulting in a 6% ftp loss on top of the 3% drop it gave me with the update.
@ming With the given change of one A race per plan, the plan builder UI should also be modified slightly so that it is possible to remove an event from the plan rather than deleting it from the calendar (or in other words, choose which events are included in the plan).
I created all my events via the calendar view, and then tried to create the plans. Unfortunately, while creating the first plan I “removed” the second A event (and all following events) from the plan but in reality I deleted them altogether.
