I was just thinking could you use this instead of Plan Builder. This would be ideal when you have no events scheduled

It looks at outside TR workouts and inside TR workouts.
It doesn’t look at outside unstructured workouts at the moment but we’re actively working on that.

Thanks Nate. What if the workout was synced from TP to TR? And if yes, what if I haven’t matched outside workout to the synced workout?
Awesome job, not like I’m getting outdoors much anyhows it’s blowing and raining like I expect to see Noah pretty soon!
As long as it’s ‘associated’ with a TrainerRoad workout it will be considered for TrainNow (even if imported from TP). I THINK haha. Nate can correct me if Im wrong.

My workouts sync’d from TP do show up under Workouts (easily filtered using Custom: Yes)… so it is a bit of a rather detailed technical question if TrainNow is considering them or not. And I assume that answer would apply to any custom workout (sync’d from TP, or created in TR’s WorkoutCreator).
Custom workouts are not counted yet, but I’m seeing updates on it every day. I don’t know how far away that is.
That’s the goal though: get all structured and unstructured workouts counting.

Thanks, I’ll go cleanup my calendar and match the completed ones to their respective custom workout. Definitely understood its a beta and exact feature implementation is a moving target.

Without wishing to sound like an arse, this is in the week tips, so all you need to do is read them. I think we’d all like the team to focus on developing new stuff.
We have an existing feature request that aims to make the Sunday Swap easier and more obvious, vs having to read, then search to find the workout, and finally add it to the calendar. It’s all possible, but a bit of extra work that may be missed in many cases?

I’m on Beta but don’t have the Train now option on my app, do I need an update?
Beta Win / Mac?
It’s not on the mobile beta’s AFAIK.
This sounds like some cool stuff!
Over the summer, this could come in handy on a day when the ride gets canceled due to bad weather.
Heck, since I plan to do more outdoor rides over the summer, I might cut back to two TR workouts and a flex day, then hit “train now” if the outdoor or group ride doesn’t happen.

I’m on IOS on my ipad and iphone. I don’t think I’ve downloaded the beta on my windows laptop.
Then you won’t have access to the new feature without the Win Beta.
No idea when it will land on the mobile.

Excellent. My reaction, after being insulted, was: “This workout looks like good fun, am going to give it a go”.
