Early Access: Improved Calendar (Beta)

The new TrainerRoad calendar is designed to make managing and analyzing your training faster and more intuitive than ever. Enabling this beta feature replaces your calendar on TrainerRoad.com with the new version. It does not change how the calendar appears in the TrainerRoad apps.

As with all Early Access features, the new calendar is still in active development, and new features and bug fixes are being added every day. You can return to the old calendar by disabling this early access feature.

New Features

The new calendar preserves the same general layout and design as the old TrainerRoad calendar. If you’re familiar with the existing calendar you shouldn’t have too much trouble finding your way around, but there are a few important new features to know before you get started.

Right-Click Capability

You can right-click workouts and notes to access common actions like copy, edit, and delete. The right-click menu also lets you instantly toggle between the indoor and outside versions of your planned workouts, associate workouts with completed outside rides, and edit notes and scheduled time off. It’s a quick and easy way to manage your training.

Updated TSS Chart

Located at the top of the calendar, the TSS chart graphs your weekly completed and planned training load over time. The TSS chart is now larger and easier to read than before; click on any week on the chart to jump to that week on the calendar below, or hover over any week on the chart to reveal more details. 

For a more comprehensive overview of your training, the TSS chart also shows Events, FTP Changes, and Training Phases below the green TSS bars. Hover over any of these items for more information, or click one to jump to the item on your calendar and open a details window.

The TSS chart can be collapsed and expanded by clicking the ^ button at top right.

All-New “Drawer”

The “drawer” is a new informational window that slides open from the right side of the screen. Click any day or scheduled item on the calendar to open the drawer. From here, you’ll find important actions and information to help you manage and plan your training without leaving the calendar.

Clicking on a calendar day opens the scheduling drawer (also accessible by clicking the +ADD button). This drawer lets you add training plans, workouts, events, and adjustments to your calendar.

Clicking on a planned workout opens the workout’s details drawer, which includes a workout description, key information, and workout alternates. Click the pencil icon at the bottom to edit the planned workout, or click the trash can to delete it.

Clicking on a completed workout or activity opens a drawer containing a summary of your performance. The “Open Details” button at the bottom launches the workout’s full details page in a new browser tab; you can also edit or delete the workout by clicking the pencil or trash can buttons at the bottom left.

Clicking on your training plan (from the calendar or TSS chart) will open the plan’s summary drawer. Here you’ll see a summary of the plan’s training stress, schedule, and any included events.

Providing Feedback

The new calendar is a beta feature and is still a work in progress, so we want your feedback! Head to the new calendar forum thread to let us know what you think and report any bugs, points of confusion, or unexpected behavior you encounter.
