I'm loving the new Training Plan integration on the site! You guys have done a great job, it looks really slick and makes following the week's planned workouts a whole lot easier. I have a couple of questions:
(1) I started Sustained Power Build (High Volume) back on 11th April so I chose this as my "Active Plan", put those dates in and it's assigned all of the previous workouts that I have already completed to those on the plan, which was fantastic. This week it's ticked over to Week 5 of the plan, yesterday I completed the first workout of the week and if I go into that plan on the Plan History page it's been correctly assigned to the planned workout, but at the top of my Career Page it's still showing the schedule and Week Description for last week (Week 4). Is this a known bug or have I done something wrong along the way?
Edited to add: Ahhh, I spoke too soon, I've fixed this now. I had substituted a couple of trainer sessions for outdoor rides, but hadn't assigned them as "Outdoor Rides" on the schedule; now that I've done this it's ticked over to Week 5 on the Career Page now. That makes sense!
(2) I was also wondering if there will be a similar update to the TrainerRoad app (specifically the Windows version), where it pulls your active Training Plan and automatically prompts you to load the appropriate workout you have scheduled for today? That would be a really cool feature.
Thanks for all your hard work!
Great to hear it's working for you :)!
Yes, the Windows app will be updated. The windows app with training plan selection was actually going to launch first, but we found a sync bug. Once we get that fixed and tested we'll have a beta out for it. I'm thinking that will be this week. Probably pushed to the main production app sometime next week as long as we don't find any major bugs.
Right now the windows app defaults you to your plan view and scrolls you to the next workout. We're going to add a feature later so that it actually opens that workout, but for now we're going to put all of our efforts behind getting our updated Mac app and new Android app out.
