I replied to another topic when it came up, but I’ll link it here since this is where it belongs. The workout search and filter features could use some improvements to help sort through the thousands of workouts more effectively. Read that link then the extra that I add below.
In fact I’ll add another feature request to it: give us the ability to search by interval duration as a filter. Although you can kinds of search for interval duration today, it doesn’t work great:
- If you want 10 minute intervals you can type “x10” in the search box. I bet >95% of users didn’t know that. But I believe that search will also get you 10 second intervals.
- I think the search also will miss workouts that have 10 minute intervals but don’t include “x10” in the description. I’m not patient enough to test that hypothesis but I believe it’s only searching the text and not the actual power profile.
- If I’m searching for 10 minute intervals then I might also be interested in 9 or 11 minute intervals since they are close enough. There’s no way find those as well besides doing multiple searches AFAICT. It would be nice for TR to offer interval lengths in the filter list like <30 seconds, <=60s, <=2min, etc. Worst case if I want 1 and 2 minute intervals then I check two boxes instead of one.
- There’s no good way to search for time in zone. If I want 60 minutes of SST I have to search for 1x60, 2x30, 3x20, 4x15, 5x12 as separate searches. PLs somewhat mitigate that, but then it’s a big mix of intensity and TIZ so a lot of workouts show up. Plus I have to do trial and error to find the right PL for the workout that I’m looking for. Again having a filter for ranges of time in zone would be very helpful.
