Hi ,
As a new AI user and newbie here as well i’m wondering how to set my profile in the app.
I’m triathlete, focusing on 70.3 and IM ,with the desire to put emphasis on bike till next season.
My main goal is behind me, and my bike leg is a bit weak for KQ when it comes to IM (5h25 with 1800D+, halfIM 2h24 flat). So the idea is to reduce run and swim to the minimum and boost my biking.
Do i have to set myself as a triathlete and skip swim and runs here and there or should I follow a cycling plan?
Generally speaking how do you set yourself during off season?
Hi @TDI,
I had a look for your profile to try to help but couldn’t find it on the app. Feel free to DM me with details and happy to work to optimize your settings. You might want to consider joining our user-time constraints beta group where you could express time availability for your specific exercise modes so that the training is prescribed accordingly. I’m certain that a year of focus on the bike with Athletica you’d see the gains you are after.
Best,
Paul
Great… those 3-4 sessions you see repeatedly in the build phases will reveal solid gains for you @TDI … once subscribed you can use the UTC feature to perhaps replace a few of the swim/run sessions for an extra bike or two each week.
Just offering my two cents here:
If you don’t have any major races and you want to get your cycling to the next level, you could increase the volume of your cycling by using cycling plans and then maintain your swim and run with 2 weekly sessions. I would do this for 2-3 months depending on when your next goal is. You can monitor your progress with a CP (critical power) test every 2-3 months to see if it is working for you.
Just an idea let me know what you think
