Submit IdeaScheduling option for messages from coach to athlete
In order to keep athletes on track and maintain consistency as far as possible, check ins can a one of the great way to remind athletes towards the end of the eve if they have been missing their workouts. I am not sure if this will need altogether a new feature or can be combined with anything else, but having such system will greatly help coaches to make their coaching systems better. Though everyone doesn't need this, most of the recreational athletes will need this and that proportion goes to almost 95 %, so seems important option to consider if we can. Some of the options I can suggest are - -Adding normal plain text chats -Ability to send audio notes quickly so that it can save time -Most importantly scheduling option for both of the above messages so they keep on firing even when coaches are busy in sessions or any other personal liabilities. Maybe adding general check in option for how their previous week looks like can be one option which can not be added against specific workouts and another can be added against workouts of that day in order to keep them on track if they are missing that. Definitely there will be some scenarios where they will have to let go the sessions but the point is it should not be a miss due to any bullshit reason.

Actual / Projected CTL, ATL, TSB displayed when hovering over a day on Calendar.
When in calendar view at present if we hover the mouse cursor (desktop) over a scheduled workout for a day a box appears showing a summary of the workout. Could we add some additional info to this pop up? For completed / past days could it display actual calculated CTL, ATL, TSB. For planned / future days could it display projected CTL, ATL, TSB. This would be a really quick way to ensure each week meets the target of recover,maintain, build etc and whether adequate recovery has been planned for hard workouts or tapering for race day etc. This would save having to switch to the performance chart to check. The alternative would be to have a floating performance chart on the calendar screen.

Show current training phase
For coaches and athletes it is helpful to see what is the current goal, is it a base phase, racing period, transition... It can be shown with a color code and label at the beginning of each week for example

Stats summary
As a coach you often want to have a quick overview of the development of your athlete so some kind of data tracking like in pic one could be very helpful imo. Some comparison to general data (which is available easily in the internet, FTP charts and other things from untrained to pro) like in the follwing pics is helpful for development too.

PMC improvements
It would be helpful to set specific alerts to the PMC, for example, a general one, alert when TSB goes down more than x a day or y up a day for example, maybe the option to overwrite it in the client's settings (I have some qualifying for WC every year and beginner,s so I give them a different load). I golden Cheetah/WKO I set it up for me to have it visualized when checking the PMC which is very helpful too.

Structure for building strength workouts
Idea is to keep the strength workouts in a structured form as well instead of just adding things in terms of description. Whenever strength workout is selected as a type, there should be change appearing on screen while adding workout like rows and columns. Rows will be for each exercise details Columns can be -Exercise name (where there should be the ability to select particular exercise added centrally either in library or in videos whatever it can be) -Sets -Rep count (there should be the ability to set this reps based on either counter as 1-20 or something and also the ability to set them based on the duration like 10 secs of particular exercise or 30 secs of particular exercise) -Rest ratio between each set and between variation of exercises Time under tension This could be used for any type of workouts like strength, mobility, yoga, flexibility, etc.

Performance Management Chart
A Chart to show training stress. The chart would compare fatigue, fitness and form to give coaches and athletes an idea of how their training load is tracking. These types of charts are a useful tool, however should only ever be used as part of determining appropriate work and rest for an athlete

Folders for Training Plans
This would be helpful to reduce the clutter of having all training plans in one big alpha-ordered list. The coach could then place plans in created folders tailored to their coaching, ie. 5K Plan folder, 10K Plan folder, Marathon Plan folder. It will allow for quicker access and just better organization.

Better messaging using audio, video, text, content and training data
Imagine a place within Training Tilt where you can text, send audio, or video messages (even record you screen) to your athletes. You can even drag and drop content from your library right into the chat including planned and completed workouts and training data. We think this would be a great feature and asset to the platform, a truly integrated messaging system with your athletes their data and your content

Make it faster and easier to comment on workouts in the mobile app
Currently there a few steps/clicks for coaches and athletes to be able to comment on completed workouts. This should be easier to access and faster to achieve to promote better communication between coaches and athletes

Tracking of a women's menstrual cycle
These areas are really important to the women athletes I train and it would be cool to be able to track, a. then I can give them harder or easier workouts depending on where they are more beneficial in their cycle. Would be happy to collab you on this as I am taking a Course with Stacy Sims in November on the topic. Just a thought Cam. Maree L

Import Structured Workouts
We want to add the ability to import structured workouts that are exported as files from other platforms. Handy for coaches who use more than one coaching system or a migrating from another platform. The initial release will be probably ZWO (Zwift) and FIT (Garmin) file formats. Instead of having to build a structured workout manually you will be able to import a file and the workout will be generated automatically.

Ability to customize the colors of different workout types
It would be great for coaches to be able to configure their own color scheme for the different workout types they use. This would make it possible to color code the default workout types but also create your own custom workout types and color code those. For example you may wish to create custom workout types for different intensity runs like "Easy Run", "Tempo Run" etc all with a different color code.

Add perceived effort to workouts
PE is a common and useful measure for coaches to both prescribe workouts and for athletes to feed back on completed workouts. We plan to add these as a prescription field but also a feed back field so both planned PE and actual PE can be measured

Add the current "Client Notes" feature to the mobile app
Currently client notes can only be used on the web app. This is a popular feature with our coaches and needs to be available in the mobile apps so it's more easily accessible. This will likely improve the adoption of this feature for clients and result in better communication between clients and coaches.
