I personally find the “workout ends at” time in TR far more useful than “remaining time” in other apps.
I suppose choice is good but I definitely wouldn’t want to lose that.

Agreed, which is why i suggested a toggle.

Might be nice to be able to toggle all the times so you can swap between “how long have I been on the ride/interval” and “how long is left of the ride/interval”.

As mentioned by someone else, you can definitely do this in other apps, so it’s a great suggestion for TR to do the same

Here’s one: I’ve been using Apple’s Journal app to journal about non-bike workouts, but I could just as easily be using TR. There are lots of little things that TR could do to enable this:
- Apple Health integration (I know, many times requested)
- Easy export to text (at least). I sometimes want to copy my notes to another app and being able to quickly copy paste, along with whatever HR/Power/etc info TR has would be excellent.
- More formatting options? Just thinking basic markdown options here.
- Structured data for exercises where it applies (exercises, weights, reps, etc).
I’m not sure TR wants to be at the center of my exercise world, but I would expect maybe they do (one more impediment to churn, maybe they eventually run it through an LLM to generate something useful to bike training?).

As advised in the image, in order to view how linear your power is, I think this upper graph should have a fixed timeline (eg; 1 min) regardless of the interval length.
Where the interval is eg; 30 sec duration, it’s fine, but I’ve seen this graph be over 10 mins long which makes it kinda useless if trying to view & maintain a steady power.

Thanks, haven’t used TR with iPad, just laptop. So you’d think with (often) the bigger screens on desktop app setup it would have this feature too… 
In a similar vein, what I see as an issue is that in TR, something is either a workout, where the system gives you feedback, or it’s not a workout, and almost seems like it didn’t happen unless it affects RL/GL. Every activity you do affects your fitness, but I’m doing activities that aren’t prescribed workouts, it feels like I’m in limbo.

Few more.
RPE response for external workouts like manual additions ie gym row, ski etc.
PL increases for more than just one zone. Ie a temp/ss 1hr would boost endurance capacity but this isn’t accounted for in PL changes.
Simply one, insert weeks in plans that moves subsequent weeks down rather than being copied in to week along side scheduled weeks.
Pre ride motivation survey in zwift. Feed into AI RLGL.
Subscription only email newsletter/nutrition recipes/sample off bike workouts/blogs.
Maybe community ambassadors in different regions to organise TR group rides or something. Hard to implement but a good way to share suffering stories. Additionally, im sure TR as a company could set up they’re own fondos/races? Reduced price for paid subscribers. Again hard work but good for community cohesion and branding.
Get TR users on the podcast. To share their experiences and normal/relatable stories. Analyse their content.
Keep up the good work too!
Yes I know but they probably should be no?
You said they should increase for more than one zone. They can if the workout has time in that zone that’s rate higher than what your current levels are. The system does what you requested, as you can see it impacted most zones.
Specifically for endurance all you’ll end up doing is hitting a wall where it came offer anymore workouts in the time you have

Surely 3x 10mins at 85% with 3min z1 recovery would impact endurance. Despite not hitting that zone at all. I’m thinking slide mountain. Only Tempo and SS impacted.? Minor quibble. Not really a significant desire. Others I suggested would be good imho
Impact yes, but it doesn’t mean that you bumped up the level in the TR system.
Basically the feature exists, you’re talking about a fundamental change in how the system works.

The system works for some cases, but in others it does not work. For example, look at
Owls Head
This workout has three Over Under parts in it, but it only gives 1.3 for Threshold.
Is it not matching how they would also rate a 1.3 threshold not part of a vo2 max? On 9x :45 per is call it 7 minutes
Chimneys has similar time in zone for a 1.3 threshold too
Seems like Owls head matches what they would call a 1.3 threshold.
Instructions during workout FONT SIZE - configurable (larger).
I normally wear glasses for closer distance. But not in training/workout/outdoors.
For my indoor Training I still like to follow somewhat the variations, notations, instructions during workouts. But the Font size is really too small for me to be read. Running this on a 11” iPad maybe 1 meter away - Font size should should be like 3 times larger for me.
Would be beneficial to make this (Font size) configurable. As it’s a temporary overlay it also wouldn’t matter to take the entire screen.
