For certain workouts, the workout changes when I choose the option for outside. Two examples: Wolfjaw +2 changes to Forbidden Peak when clicking the Outside option. Gendarm +11 also changes to Forbidden Peak. Any others experiencing this? ---

Here’s a reply from a different thread about outdoor/indoor equivalency. > [@Are Traditional Base outside workouts correct?](https://www.trainerroad.com/forum/t/are-traditional-base-outside-workouts-correct/36231/2?u): > > Hey Schmidt, In order to create outside workouts that exactly match their indoor counterparts, it requires a Support Agent to go in and manually build the outside workout interval by interval. For many of our workouts, this has been done, so when you select “Outside Workout” it will push a nearly identical workout to your head unit. That being said, we still have a list of Workouts that have not been given this exact 1:1 outside workout variant. For these workouts, we have a one-to-many rela… ---

Thanks for the responses. This makes sense and is what I originally assumed was the case. It’s odd that some variations of an original workout convert exactly to outside workouts but others do not (Wolfjaw +2 converts to Forbidden Peak but Wolfjaw +3 stays the same). ---

To have an outdoor equivalent they have to be built individually by a TR employee. So to save time for now they linked many indoor workouts to the same outdoor workout that they felt was close. I believe they are working on making more exact conversions but especially if the workout is not included in a training plan then it may not be the same.
