Week of June 13

Your coach now adapts the day as your recovery data comes in. If your overnight HRV and sleep sync late and show more fatigue than your morning plan assumed, it dials today's ride back to a lighter version of the same session instead of leaving you with a plan that no longer fits. A too-early "rest day" call can now reverse itself too: if the data that lands mid-morning shows you're actually well recovered, the rest suggestion is withdrawn and your planned session stands. (Cycling for now, for athletes on automatic or adaptation preview.)

We also made the daily briefing far more reliable for anyone training off a recovery device. Your briefing and workout now still arrive on mornings when Whoop misses its sync, built from whatever sleep and recovery data is available, instead of waiting indefinitely for numbers that never come. If your Whoop connection silently breaks, IntervalCoach now notices and emails you to reconnect. And Whoop users can finally set a fixed briefing time in Settings → Notifications, so it waits for the hour you picked instead of landing at 5am.

The Training Plan got smarter about how much it asks of you. Your available hours are now treated as a ceiling, not a target to fill: plans build from what you've actually been training and ramp up gently from there. The Training Plan page now shows the three inputs behind your weekly load (what your goal needs, your hours ceiling, and your recent training) and which one is setting your number, so you can tell whether to raise your goal, add hours, or just keep training. If you fall behind, your targets nudge back up to help you catch up instead of quietly getting easier, and polarized plans now keep their hard days genuinely hard.

Analytics picked up a new Rider Profile that reads your rider type (Sprinter, Climber, Time Trialist and so on) from the shape of your power curve, alongside your strength in each energy system at a glance. Power charts can now switch between watts and W/kg with one toggle. And outdoor rides and runs now show a map of your route right in the activity view, with redesigned shared activity pages built around it.

Coach+ stopped wasting your messages on avoidable errors: schedule changes and workout edits that used to fail on a technicality now go through the first time, deleted workouts stay deleted, and it tells you the truth about plan rebuilds instead of pointing you at an unchanged calendar. The in-app help assistant can now answer questions about your own account using live data: your plan, your training phase and this week's target, why today's session is what it is, and whether your devices are syncing.

IntervalCoach now speaks Traditional Chinese (繁體中文), and if your browser is set to a language we support you'll get a one-time nudge to switch everything over, including your daily emails. On Android you can now install IntervalCoach to your home screen, and pinch-zoom works again. We also published three reads this week: Coming Back From Illness Without Blowing Yourself Up, plus athlete spotlights on @javi building a Mallorca engine for La Purito and @tino-76 rebuilding at 49 on his own terms. Max subscribers can now switch down to Pro right in Settings, heart-rate cycling workouts now show their real training load, and multi-sport schedules now stick.
