For Coaches

Coaches full control over the functioning of achievements on their athletes accounts. The configuration of achievements is done by clicking “Athletes” in the top-bar and selecting “Achievements”.

This table will show the settings for all of your coached athletes. If an athlete has turned off any achievements before you gained coaching access, they won’t appear in this table. If you need them get the athlete to turn them back on.

The “Calculation” option, which appears as the achievement icon as shown below. This controls what achievements the system calculates. You can select which time periods are calculated (i.e. Bronze, Silver or Gold), which units we calculate peaks for (e.g. 5” pwr, 10’ w/kg, etc) and whether you want to calculate achievements for all the activity summary metrics.

Coaches can also control which achievements they are notified about, and which their athletes are notified about. These columns are controlled by the “person” and “whistle” icon, as shown below.

As an example: You may want your athletes to be notified of all their achievements, but you may only want to know about their Gold achievements.

Note: The “person” and “whistle” icons only control notifications You can turn these off and arstill see the achievements by going into the individual activity.

Workout Builder Workouts

Included in your basic and plan subscriptions are a library of workouts as well as a workout template builder that lets you create your own workouts.

There are Structured and unstructured workouts

A structured workout is one in which the intervals are defined, and each interval has a duration, distance, cadence and/or pace targets. For example: 10 mins at 200 watts with a cadence of 80 rpm

An unstructured workout only contains a free form text / html description of the workout.

For example: Ride easy for 1.5 hours.

Structured workouts are configured relative to the user. The user’s power, pace and heart rate zones table is used to calculate the specific intensity targets in each interval.

Structured workouts can be exported in a number of different formats, for use in 3rd party systems and bike computers. The supported formats are:

  • Zwo: export to a Zwift workout format
  • Fit: export to a fit workout format which can be used on Garmin bike computers and watches
  • mrc/erg: export to formats used by TrainerRoad
  • Stages: export to a Stages Dash v1 format (swo)

The workout library panel is on the right of the calendar. It can be opened and closed by the small white/red arrow top left of the panel (top right of the calendar)

You can either use the search box to do a basic keyword search or open advanced search which give you many more options including the ability to include only structured workouts.

Search results show in the Library area and can be drag and dropped into the calendar

You can star a workout to add it to the favorites area. You can also edit a workout or from the edit view, clone the workout before editing.

All workouts including cloned workouts and workout you create are added to the library area.

To create your own workout click the red “add template workout” button at the bottom of the search panel

Notes on structured workouts

TWorkouts vs UserWorkouts

An important concept in the Today’s Plan system is the differentiation between a TWorkout and User Workout.

A TWorkout is a template workout. It defines all the attributes of a workout: description, media, intervals etc.

The intervals are defined as zone ranges, ie: Power zone 2.3 - 3.1. There are no absolute power or heart rate references.

The TWorkout resides in the “workout library”.  A TWorkout is “instantiated” against a user and date. At this point, a UserWorkout is created - and the specific wattage, pace and heart rate ranges are set relative to the user’s zone table and threshold.

TWorkout intervals can have overloads. Overloads are an increment to an interval. An overload could be on the number of reps, duration or intensity of the interval. They are applied in weekly blocks.

For example: Every 2 weeks, add 2 reps and 1 min to the interval.

By specifying overloads into TWorkouts you can effectively increase the number of workouts you have access to in your library. When you instantiate a TWorkout to a user, you can select which overload week you are selecting.
