TrainerRoad

Hi all

Just joined couple of days ago and really excited to find out how far I can go with EN's help

Ok here goes my first (dumb) question. Since I use TrainerRoad extensively to relieve boredom (I'm from Malta, and island of 316 sq km and 417,000 inhabitants, so riding exclusively outdoors would lower my life expectancy to about 40yrs), are the workouts prescribed by EN available up and running on TR? Or would I have to go ahead and create them myself with the Workout Creator app?

Hope I'm not rehashing an old topic which has already been discussed and closed! Did a search but this question doesn't seem to have come up.

Thanks

Cliff

  • Hey Cliff! Welcome to the Team!

    A lot of us inside da Haus use TrainerRoad. Awesome program. Hopefully someone else will chime in with the actual thread, but here's the short version. Last yr a "private" group was created for EN inside of TrainerRoad. So you have to get permission and be approved to join (I forget exactly how). Once inside that group, you will see a whole bunch (but not all) of the EN workouts. Particularly, several volunteers "created" almost all of the OS workouts in last yr's plans for Beg, Intermediate, and Advanced levels. I still find myself using some of those workouts for a random mid week FTP ride as I am currently doing a run durability focused plan before this yr's OS starts for me in January.

    Stay tuned and some smart person will chime in with how to be permissioned for the EN group inside of TR.

  • Yeah, I am in the same boat. I am hoping to use the trainer more this winter. I have all the gear, but I think the knowledge and at this point motivation to make it all work....

    Who has the spoon and the information?
  • This would be great! I am using TR pretty much exclusively this winter and although I really like it, it would get great to find these workouts!
  • Look in the wiki there are two Trainer Road entries which may help.
  • Cliff,

    You are covered as per Coach P's recent post on the dashboard "2014 OS workouts loaded into Trainer Road...coming to a paincave near you soon!!! image"

  • Question,
    that link from above doesn't go anywhere for me. is there a new 2014 version of a link that will let me get in on this?
  • Hey all thanks for your replies. Just discovered how to get to this page (lol) and found all you amazing guys and your super fast replies 

    Took me a while but I managed to find what I was looking for with TrainerRoad. Bring on the pain tomorrow! 

  • are the workouts titled differently this year to distinguish between the 2012 OS and the 2013 OS?
  • Never mind, I found them as they start with 2014....

    Oh, and for those of you testing.....it's important to use the one titled FTP test, NOT the one 20 minute test as the rest time between the 5 min all out is different in these 2 workouts.
