If I alter from my training schedule to go out and do a group ride one evening, will adaptive training analyze the ride and factor it into adaptions?
Nope…
Not currently. TR plans to launch PL’s2 which will take account of unstructured outdoors rides but I am not sure when that will be.
Like everything on TR I wish it was sooner then later, but I understand. Currently starting second phase of low volume base, but on Wednesday and Sunday I add Train Now. My plan is once we get a little warmer in WI I’ll still do my low volume plan inside and then on current days I do Train Now I’ll ride outside to enjoy the weather. I hope to have a gravel bike by then to get sometime on.
What I’ve taken to doing is to try and match the group ride with a workout after the spin. I try to match the efforts/ intensity after analysing the ride. I had my club spins defaulted to “outdoor”, but it was quite hit and miss given the make up of the group was changeable, how hard we go depends on group/ leader etc.
