AT bug and workaround

The other day I did a workout that increased my by a few points.
When it posted to Strava, I noticed that my level in the picture (love this feature) hadn’t budged.
Today, I looked on my career and saw that TR thinks I haven’t done a week in that level for two weeks.
I clicked on the survey response and changed it down a notch (I was on the fence anyway) and it bumped my level back up to where was supposed to be.

Is that really a bug or intended functionality? I don’t think AT progresses your levels if you rate the workout too hard.

Marked one as very hard last night, got a +0.1 bump! Does depend on how you mark it… would have been happier with no bump :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

I’d had been lying if I’d marked it as all out… I always mark on the side of caution if stuck between two levels.

  • Not only on the marked survey response, but the Difficulty also matters. A 4 rating is handled differently for an Achievable workout compared to a Breakthrough. It pays to look at all of these details when investigating and reviewing workouts and results.

And to beat the dead horse, this original question is best directed to support@trainerroad.com since they have access to far more info than we have here on the forum.
