Hi Scott

Thank you for the prompt response & good wishes 🙂

Well noted, healing will be the priority, and I will be careful not to run, which reactivates the irritation. With my condition (fat pad impingement); Joint mobilization & Low-Intensity Activity training is actually helping as these result in increased strength and endurance of the muscles closest to the joints. I will be careful with weight exercises and will not target Z3 with weights. And will definitely not run anytime soon.

Having said that would you suggest some exercises to hit Z3 & Anaerobic Threshold other than running? Or should I discard/change the Z3 intervals in the training plan?

Regards
Umer

Hi Tammy

I am sure the coaches will answer, however, just adding my observations. I had the same issue and realized the rTSS is race pace based TSS, which training peaks auto-input. Since we will be mainly doing uphill/weight hikes; the pace shouldn’t matter much. Kindly change the rTSS to hrTSS, which is heart rate based. It will give you more accurate results.

Please remember hrTS is calculated based on your “Threshold Heart Rate” & not the Aerobic Threshold. The “Threshold Heart Rate” in your “training peaks-settings-zones” should be your Anaerobic Threshold.

Also, once the hrTSS is calculated, don’t forget to add “Fudge Factors,” to workouts i.e.

A purely aerobic run/hike/ski while carrying minimal weight: Calculate the TrainingPeaks hrTSS and add 10 TSS for every 1,000 vertical feet of gain.
A purely aerobic run/hike/ski while carrying more than 10 percent of body weight: Add 20 TSS/1,000 feet.

Hi Mark

It was an issue with past workouts; I moved the planned and actual workouts to the present day, merged those and then moved back to the earlier dates.

Thanks

I have been trying for a couple of days now, but I cannot merge indoor walks with the planned Zone 1 Jog/walk & Zone 2 Hike workouts. I tried a different browser, and it didn’t work either.

Is it some bug, or do I need to change some settings/details?

Thanks

Hi Mark

A request: would you please modify my plan, so the rest day falls on Sunday instead of Monday?

Thanks

Hi Mark

I did the AeT HR test on Friday with 138BPM as starting point; the difference was 1.4% (143/141).
On Monday, I did the second AET HR test with 145BPM as starting point; the difference was 2.0% (149/146).

Need your advice:
BPM to be considered as AeT Threshold & Anaerobic Threshold?
Should I run another AeT test soon?

Thanks

To add: I changed it to hrTSS, and now it is 82 🙂
I guess the training peak was using the default threshold pace to calculate rTSS.

Thanks

Dear Mark

Thank you for the prompt reply and the detailed feedback. Since we are discussing TSS, what should be an 01-hour Aerobic workout TSS? I did 1 hour 13 minutes workout; however, the TSS is only recorded as 28. Also, I had to change the distance manually as well as it was an indoor walk.

Thanks
