No , there’s a problem with the app connecting to the internet . I set it to hard to see if it would make a difference. Traffic light system hasn’t worked for a month during which most of my rides have been outside and on zwift. There’s an issue with it saying it’s offline and not connected which explains the traffic light system going missing for a month. I’ve just signed up to a plan , will see how it goes. My ftp is too low and everything is too easy. At a guess Id say I’m closer to 240. I’ll do a ramp test to check.
Would it be better to have set it to easy, as hopefully this would push and increase in your PL, or isn’t that what you were trying to do?
I do think there is a hole in TR when it comes to doing unstructured training outdoors, but how this could be resolved is beyond me. Glad to hear you are now on a training plan as this should help get you caught up to the right PL’s.
I’m not having any connection issues when using TR and would expect the forum to blow up if this was a reguar issue, so suspect this may be local to you rather than a more extensive TR bug, but definately worth running it past support.
Evertime I’ve contacted them, they’ve been super helpful.
We will have to agree to disagree on this one ![]()
Yes, that’d be my guess, too.
The reason is that TR is based on Electron, an application framework that builds on top of Chrome’s browser engine. At least until 2ish (?) years ago engine famously has issues dealing with changes in connection (e. g. when you pass from wifi to cellular) and lost connections. If this is the issue, then TR can do nothing about it, it is a bug with Chrome’s engine.
While I don’t think you have an issue with progression levels not updating or red light green light not working….. you do seem to have run into an issue with all your levels being nerfed to 1.
I think this is down to you having FTP increases while not using TR but I’m not sure. Because FTP increases always decrease your levels.
I would reach out to support and say that you believe that the workouts on your plan are too easy.
I think what they will do is take a look and most likely swap out some of those upcoming workouts with harder higher-level workouts.
But to reiterate: Your PL chart looks as expected based on the workouts you have completed, red light green light looks like it’s working as expected and the disconnected error on the app is extremely unlikely to be an issue.
Alternatively you can just follow the plan and rate all the workouts as “easy” and that will make your plan ramp up quicker - but might take a while.
Important to note that rating workouts easy will have an affect on upcoming workouts - but will not affect your PL level chart - your chart will only change after you have successfully completed a workout.
Oh hang on. It’s showing my calendar for your profile. I give up. ![]()
You got a 0.2 increase today for sweet spot so all looks increasing fine.
