I’ve been thinking about the workflow between AI Endurance and Intervals.icu lately, especially with the recent ATP (Annual Training Plan) builder release . I’m curious how others are balancing AIE’s adaptive approach with the long-term visualization. Since AI Endurance is inherently non-linear and …

Actually something I’ve been wanting to implement for a while is that you could create week by week / (month by month?) guardrails to the training planner in Advanced settings that could be used optionally: you could specify how much volume you want in Endurance, Tempo, Threshold, etc for a given t…

[image] MarkusRummel: you could specify how much volume you want in Endurance, Tempo, Threshold, etc for a given time period leading up to the goal event. Then the plan finder would be constraint to work within those. That’s an interesting approach, though for me, I’d actually worry that sett…

[image] Maxime_Perron: That’s an interesting approach, though for me, I’d actually worry that setting manual guardrails might force me into a suboptimal path. The main reason I use AIE is to let the model find that optimal path for me. Yes exactly the reason haven’t build that yet. [image…

If implemented, I would like to see a side-by-side comparison between a cyclic plan vs. a pure-ML plan. My expectation is the pure-ML plan should “always” perform better than a plan with guardrails attached. If the mesocyclic plan is better than the ML plan, this implies something went wrong with th…

Thanks for the suggestions, makes sense! [image] R_Handle: Calendar planning improvements that allow for quick blocking of days/weeks/months with tags like ‘travel’, ‘vacation’, ‘year end’ to indicate high/low stress times of year You can do this now with blocking day and adjusting/overridin…

Brain knew it as I saw the annoucement and the ‘…’ in the calender, fingers didn’t know it yet :slight_smile:

I want to take back what I said previously about not needing manual guardrails. After training for several months without them, my progress completely stalled because the AI kept throttling my schedule back to Endurance-only workouts. I realized this was happening for two reasons: Schedule const…

Thanks for the feedback. We still have that feature to enforce time in zones in the advanced settings in the plans. Might be a couple more months till we get there though. Thanks for your patience

You can now set the ramp rate: New: set custom ramp rate in advanced plan settings

After reviewing many training plans I’ve decided against enforcing time in zones as an option. I doesn’t seem necessary
