TrainerPlan Virtual

Transcript

Translated from the Spanish narration.

0:00 Introduction

Welcome to a new TrainerPlan Masterclass. Today, TrainerPlan Virtual: the 3D world where your athletes do the sessions you schedule on the indoor trainer, without leaving TrainerPlan. It's in beta, and this is how it works today.

0:15 You schedule the session

Nothing changes for you. You schedule the session in your athlete's calendar as usual: warm-up, intervals with their power target, and cool-down.

0:25 Entering Virtual

Your athlete opens Virtual from the TrainerPlan menu, on a computer, with Chrome or Edge. They choose whether to ride or run, and the route: a flat circuit by the sea, the Sierra de Madrid, central Madrid or the hills of Richmond.

0:42 The session from the calendar

Under Workouts they see what is scheduled for these days, with its steps and targets, calculated from their own zones.

0:51 Connecting the indoor trainer

They connect their indoor trainer or power meter over Bluetooth, and if they like, their heart rate strap. As soon as the watts come through, they're ready to go.

1:06 Time to ride

And off they go. On screen they see which step they're on, the power target and what's left.

1:13 ERG mode

If they turn on trainer control, in the power intervals ERG mode holds the watts for them, and the rest of the time they feel the climbs in their legs.

1:23 Saving to TrainerPlan

When they finish, they choose Save to TrainerPlan. The session you had scheduled is marked completed, with the time, distance, elevation gain, power, heart rate if they wear a strap, and their Effort.

1:40 What the coach sees

And you see it in your calendar like any other workout: what they actually did alongside what you had planned, with their Effort, which already counts towards their fitness and fatigue.
