Man… sometimes, I REALLY wish I could work for you guys…
I completely agree, I gave up my Zwift subscription when I moved the pain cave from the house to the shed where there is no internet. I can run TR quite happily off my phone or an iPad and it gives me everything I need for an hour or so of training.
I used to run Zwift and TR in parallel, but generally found that I wasn’t really paying much attention to Zwift as I was too busy reading Chad’s notes. That said, the carrot of catching another rider ahead could be a good motivator for the higher intensity intervals.
The other big advantage of TR now is that I can send the workout to my Garmin and follow a workout on a real ride outside.
The new plan builder is a great addition and will only improve.
Overall, TR really works for me and a big part of that is its simplicity and it just works. Great job Nate, Chad and the gang

I am 59 and I have consistently found that, after setting my FTP via the ramp test, I always struggle with long threshold intervals but that VO2Max (even Spanish Needle) is easy for me. I assumed that the ratio of sustained power to short power must have changed with age but I have no proof of that. I see the same thing on the road.
i wouldn’t mind handing over anonymised data to research. you could even have research/study based workouts in the application.
they could apply to you. you could approve and then allow users to opt in.
i understand you have an profit motivation to consider but science moving forward is great for everyone.
you could even sponsor the studies to help develop your products ![]()
Does TR still have the grandfather rules?
Yes, as long as your subscription does not lapse
Unless you opt in to the increases. Which I did. Legacy Pricing Update
This term has appeared in a couple of threads lately and I understand that is is a part of the common vernacular……however, it is a term that is based in racism and was used to prevent black people from exercising their right to vote.
The solution? A half-dozen states passed laws that made men eligible to vote if they had been able to vote before African-Americans were given the franchise (generally, 1867), or if they were the lineal descendants of voters back then.
This was called the grandfather clause. Most such laws were enacted in the early 1890s.
Learned something today! Thank you
What words or phrases can we use to better express this?
I use “legacy” or “legacied” for situations like this…,
