Situation is adding an additional ride into the calendar. Typical example would be a 2 hour zone 2 endurance ride, then scheduling a 30 minute anaerobic on/offs.
In practise this is ridden as one ride, on the calendar it is two. How do we go about rating these. Taken separately the endurance is easy, the efforts will be hard or vey hard. If I was rating the ride as a singular I imagine it to be rated to the highest rating being overall hard or very hard.
So should I then rate these endurance as hard as well or as easy?
It’s what im doing, I don’t follow a generated plans strictly. It’s modified in terms of days training and content to a degree to suit my particualr needs
I try to keep a power file that spans an entire session, even if I swap between workouts. I generally record power on my Garmin as a backup to zwift/tr. I just use that as the primary ride file in these cases. Sometimes I have to delete two separate rides and upload the single file, but that’s easy.
Typically would be 90-120 minutes of zone 2 followed by an on/off at intensity. Format is specifically train fatigue resistance. Don’t really find the TR workouts with this format pre intensity duration.
When doing a Zwift race my warmup→race is always seperated by Zwift into two workouts. I just rate the warm up easy and the race what effort it is. Seems to be working well with the AI.
