Measurement depending on training type

Feature Request

I would like to run my Z2/endurance/easy runs on LTHR, and intervals on pace (or power for the matter). Feature request: have a number of training types (ideas):

  • recovery

  • easy/endurance

  • tempo

  • threshold

  • vo2max

  • interval

Then make it possible to select a measurement type for that training type:

  • LTHR

  • Pace

  • Power

    Hi Yeroon, thanks, this is a good way to frame it. Today the running target is one setting for all your runs: pace, heart rate, power, or auto, where auto only switches to heart rate when your goal race is a trail event. Nothing looks at the type of session, so an easy run and a threshold session get the same target type. What you describe, heart rate for recovery and endurance runs and pace or power for tempo work and intervals, is a rule I can apply where the target is chosen, since every generated session already knows its type. It joins an open request for switching the target per run, and I would rather build your version, a standing rule per session type, since it needs no action on the day. In the meantime TrainNow lets you pick heart rate or pace per session when you generate one there. No date yet.
