Race Schedule in the Calendar with macrocycle, mesocycle and microcyle for training
Please do something to have more support for planing workouts
Step 1: Support to mark a "race day" in the calendar and in the health report
Step 2: Please support Periodization for this "Race Day" in the calendar, to see what i have to plan for this year and for the month, week and day. Macro, Meso, Micro Cyle!!
Extra Colours for the training cycle:
Base – a general preparatory phase
Build – a specific preparatory phase
Pre-competition – a race-specific phase
Taper – an unloading phase that permits peak performance
Transition – a post-race recovery phase
Step 3: Automatic predefinition of the intensity regarding to the microcycle! for planing new workouts.

It would be fantastic to have a True Annual Training Plan function, similar to what's been added to the training peaks coaching platform. Currently (as a British Cycling qualified coach) I actually do all the plan longhand using Excel. This Annual plan system on testing Training peaks is in their software. I have been a big supporter of Sportstracks for about the last 10ish years. I think with this function added to Sportstracks mobi, you will get a lot more coach adopters, and therefore their coached athletes will follow suit.

It would be great to see this feature implemented. Applying a phase to a whole week or individual days would be perfect. I agree with Ben and Uli's comments and ideas. This is the biggest thing lacking in Sport Tracks and is a tool most high level coaches and athletes live by.

I like this idea, essentially what I would like to see is a more robust tools to plan a year or season. Specifically using training volume in hours or kilometres or Training Load. The tools available now are good and helpful, but like I and others have said, more robust tools at a more macro level would be very helpful.

Agree with Uli's comment. I would like to be able to give each week a title, description and colour. This would help with planning out training periodisation within sporttracks.
i.e.
Title: Build phase - Week 1
Description: Easy runs, light uphill runs and strides. Light resistance weight training.
Colour: Blue -

Hi,
it would be a great help for planning the periodization,
if we could give a whole week a comment (e.g. rest week) and maybe a color. -

HI,
with Step2 i mean, that i would like to get a generated Macro, mess and mircocyle from sporttracks.mobi automatically.
I can do this manually, but i think, that it ist possible to place the cycle automatically in my calendarPlease show the Raceday in the health-section in de performance Report

Step1:
Already supported, you should create a normal planned workout, mark all the information for your race (distance, goal pace) and use the race subcategory.
Step2:
You can flag any planned workout with six colors. Choose a color for each phase, and mark the planned workout - you'll see the planned workout colors in the calendar. Try it out!
Step3:
This is a good challenge for us.
