New Beta Structured Workout Builder
We've released a new Beta workout builder that gives more flexibility in prescribing structured workouts.
The main advantages of the new workout builder is being able to prescribe multiple target types within the same intervals. For example you can prescribe both power and heart rate targets for each interval. This means you no longer have to create multiple versions of a workout to support athletes who do not necessarily have the correct devices. For example all intervals could have prescribed power, heart rate, pace and RPE so even if athletes do not have a power meter, HR monitor or even a GPS watch can still perform the workout using the target of their choice.
The new workout builder can be accessed using a separate button next to the normal build workout button. On the calendar view we've moved the structured workouts into the main planning tab and removed the specific "Structured Workout" tab to save a few clicks.
You can also access the new builder using this button inside a workout in your Library. First go to Coaching - Library.
Now edit or create a new workout. Once in edit mode you will see the "Build Workout (Beta)" button. The original button is still there to use the legacy builder.
New Features
Multiple Target Types
You can now prescribe multiple target types to individual intervals.
Mixed Target Types
Given the above is now possible, you can also now specify mixed target types across intervals. In the legacy workout builder all intervals had to be the same target type, all power, or all HR etc. Now you can have some intervals with power, some with HR, some with Pace and some with RPE
Adding New Intervals
When you add a new interval you now have more options to choose from for presets for the new interval, this will save time as cuts down on a few steps.
Automatically Add RPE
Any athlete, regardless of what devices they are using can execute a workout if RPE is prescribed. You can set RPE manually on intervals or you can switch this on so a default RPE is added to all new intervals you add to the workout.
File Download Compatibility
As you modify the workout you will be able to see how you changes effect the file download compatibility.
