I manually choose an endurance workout using the “Train Now” feature and ignore the planned workout.

5x 8 min tempo
I knew going into this workout I was only going to have three hours, so changed 5 x 8 tempo into 2 x 20 and 1 x 8 sweet spot. Would have really liked to have made that last interval 20 minutes long also, but was starting to get a little cooked.
Ok, gotta run to kiddo soccer games. Hopefully JOIN still gives me a rest week - not going to get a lot of time on the bike anyway with work travel and a camping trip on the calendar.

Well I found out that if you miss a day on the calendar, you can’t choose the one you missed. It looked like it was going to work, but it then started the workout for the day. I didn’t try to find that workout outside of the calendar. Wonder if I did, if I’d get credit for it on the Calendar.

You should be able to select missed workouts. They will appear dimmed on the calendar but should be selectable.
I “missed” Slide Mountain on Wednesday:

My poor butt. I haven’t done a long trainer ride like that in years. 49 minutes of that wattage.
But I survived. AND I do this workouts variant today, with longer recovery intervals. I’m hoping this builds a base that I lost over the pandemic and hip surgery. RIDE ON!!

Palisade +1 which is 45 minutes of threshold over/under.
This felt fairly easy. The legs burned a bit, but the cardio felt fine.

Easier than yesterday actually. Nice workout. Sorry that I didn’t get a level bump out of it. Only 49 minutes of sweet spot.

Its been gusting at 30-46mph today and with circa 90%+ humidity so I was forced indoors for my workout tonight, Mount Field. Its still a tad warm in the pain corridor but the RPE felt just about right for a low lever SS workout and on review my HR was about right too. I hope its a bit drier tommorow night as I don’t really fancy a threshold session in this:
You’ll have to make do with Garmin’s output as the TR web app has been forced into a spin by the work out and is taking a ‘Nasty Spill’
On review though I need to work on getting my cadence back up!
Edit: TR’s web App is up again:

I’m doing polarized build lv, with additional endurance rides outdoors on weekends. The progression chart doesn’t reflect the endurance work I have done because I don’t usually associate them to a TR workout. I feel like at some point I should put some work into the other power systems.

Although I didn’t actually do the workout i.e. let the turbo set the watts, I pretty much followed Pioneer +3 on a free ride on Zwift up the Alpe. Was blowing hard by the end of it.

Keith -2 - TrainerRoad with 10 min additional low Z2 warm-up and final 25 min Z2
HR skyrocketed since the warmup reaching at the end of the first set 184, just one BPM below my max.
During the second set I reduced midway the intensity down to 95% but could not make it.
Third set was instead completed by keeping the power requirement like the first interval (95% - 110%)
Leg felt good, not fatigued. But I could feel my heart trying its best to escape from my throat.

Did one called Martin – four 16 or 17 minute intervals (tempo/sweet spot). Shouldn’t have been too hard in itself, but this ride really wore me out. I think I may have been a bit dehydrated; I had 2 bottles but they both had carbs in them. Stomach felt cramped. Ran out of liquid after 3 hours, finally filled up with water after about 4 hours. Live and learn.

I had Astra in my calendar tonight and I was about to get ready to go out but I figured by the time I got ready there’d be very little light left and it had rained a few times too so I set up the trainer instead and as I was doing so Astra adapted to Mono.
After I started the warm up I realised my H10 was dead so I jumped off for a new battery. I jumped of a second time in the warm up to fix something else. Apart from that it went mostly OK except my skewer came loose so I had to resist any urge to stand. The only annoying thing is my cadence is too d@mm low, Strava Sauce highlights how bad it was:
Oh and did I mention my pain corridor is still a little too hot:

Custom endurance workout. Nice and simple - power goes up, power goes down, 65-75% FTP. Unlikely to get a ride this weekend so went a little long this morning. Now the key is to stay awake at work.

Camped last night with J4 and his Trail Life troop. Stayed nice and dry, but I’m getting too old to sleep on the ground, so today’s ride was nice and easy.
