Sorry, Joe, not an expert. I’d look to see whether historically you’d seen other anomalies in past activities, looking for any patterns, and figuring out whether it’s down to dodgy data from the HRM(s) or actual data from real episodes, preferring straps over wrist-based HRMs to improve the likely accuracy etc.
Personally, I’ve had both - false data & real episodes - but now know what to look/feel for, and thankfully now rarely see anomalous HRs (
) where once I experienced them quite often.
Hey @Dezzy1979,
Thanks for the heads-up! This is indeed a bug, and the team is working on it now. 
Agreed. But TR documentation and Nate keep talking about it both ways, at least in the words they use. Which is why I keep asking them to clean up their terminology usage.
Yellow to me means I should probably take it easy. Red means I should definitely take it easy. RLGL is easy for me to understand.
Great addition for people like me and can’t wait to see how they progress this feature.
The trend I notice is after a hard day I’m yellow and I normally do endurance anyways and sometimes the endurance day that’s yellow is a long 4+ hour ride in yellow. Then it’s normally yellow after that day which is a rest day anyways.
The reason why this happens is because athletes add another big day (usually outside), thus adding another intense day to their week.
So you’re asking “how do I fit 4 hard days into a week?”. We don’t recommend doing that, especially long term.
Remember, the only reason this is happening is because you did something fairly big outside of the plan. (I love that your username is DO-IT-ALL, btw 
)
One thing I do think we could add is replacing thursday’s hard ride with tuesday’s hard ride. Or see if you’ve been skipping the threshold workouts in the week, that we replace other hard rides with that.
If it was me in that situation I’d probably think , yes, I can do it but it may not be great in the long run particularly if I keep doing the workouts on Red days going forward.
Yay! I’m so happy to hear that!
Im the same as you and I think I would have progressed farther by slowing myself down a bit…which would have made me more consistent and sick less.
I’m really loving this feature too!
We’re meeting on it tomorrow with engineers. We think we know of a fairly easy way to do it, but we won’t know exactly how long it will take until we get into it.
Yay! Thank you!!
Yes!
We’re not going to describe the entire system because we’re doing some special things and we don’t want our competitors to know.
Also, we’re constantly updating/tweaking things so something I said today might not be true tomorrow.
The large brush strokes stay true, but the implementation details change.
We have a setting launching today or tomorrow where you can change how much you want to prioritize recovery vs intensity.
Meaning if you want to come back and be “aggressive”, you could set it to “aggressive” and get less yellow/red days. We’d just want to make sure you’ve got your sleep and nutrition dialed.
Correct! And then when athletes do big outdoor rides + a full TR plan they post “TR burned me out!” 
.
Yup, I had the same thing. I think the key is to not train on the red days, or if you do, you’ll need to pay that loan back with recovery pretty soon.
I think you’ll be most consistent long term with mostly green and yellow, but we all do some of those big outdoor rides that we aren’t 100% prepared for and smash ourselves for a few days :-D.
Work done. That’s one of the reasons we use WLV2 for analysis. Including using it for outdoor rides.
I checked out your account. You are triggering yellow days, but it looks like you’re going pretty easy on almost all of those yellow days (besides before your vacation which I agree with that training decision).
It’s OK to get yellow days, we’re just saying those should be easier days. It would be really hard to increase your overall volume without triggering those yellow days.
Eventually. Before that, we’re going to enable post workout notifications for outdoor rides and runs. That way we can get RPE info from you, show WLV2 stuff, and RLGL stuff…+ more!
As Zach said, if that’s what motivates you go for it! I’m pretty sure you’d likely trigger a red day and will need to take some extra recovery to pay back the loan you took out the previous two days.
But…as your training volume increases, there’s no reason why you can’t handle a hard VO2 workout on Sat and a long endurance ride on Sunday.
But as Brian said, ideally you wouldn’t do a 3-4 hour ride. You’d do the reduce volume that is recommended by AT.
We’re going to do this at the plan builder level to help pick volume.
Im not sure on the ETA. You’ll see lots of other activities on your calendar first, then we’ll add the swim’s to RLGL. They should follow each other pretty closely.
Thanks!! We’ll keep it in mind. We haven’t rounded up all the marketing stuff for this yet.
