Recommended Total Training Time per Week
The plan adapts to the availability I give, but it does not tell me what the proposed time is for progression. I can only indirectly find this by varying each day and check what this does to my level. When planning I’d like to see “for best success plan x hrs and y training days”. I could still set as many hours as I like.

Join score on rest days
The idea is you improve during your rest days. Then why does my join score improve directly after a hard exercise and declines during rest days. Doesn’t provide the right motivation and should be possible to slightly tweak the algorithm to let your join score take part of the increase associated with the training on or after a rest day.

Training programme to reach specified FTP
Perhaps there could be an interactive feature where you could indicate the FTP you are aiming for by a certain time and an estimate of weekly training hours available. Join could indicate if it’s realistic or you could see what’s realistic by adjusting the aim date or the weekly training hours.

Lap Press for Outdoor Rides
For Outdoor rides, it can be really difficult to make sure you are in a good spot at the beginning of a set of intervals. It would be useful to have a “lap press” before a block of intervals. For example, I wss doing the workout “2 sets of 10-50s” and I was coming to a stop sign and about to turn as the 30min endurance section was ending and the first 10second sprint was about to start. It would be nice to have the intervals only start after an additional press so I could get through the intersection before starting. Thanks.

Wanted: support for power/weight lifters
Why? Simply to avoid cycle sessions with high power and low cadence after or before legs lifter or pull lifter sessions with heavy squats or dead lifts. The focus should more on stamina and VO2max. Simply ask the user about the power/weight lift sessions to provide some more usefull cycle sessions, thanks a lot for your effort.

Fixed watts in indoor for ERG
Could we have an "indoor" mode with fixed watt target so that ERG mode can work? For example, an outdoor workout requiring between 120 and 140W could be available in indoor mode at a fixed 130W.

Recovery
Hello, would it perhaps be interesting to create a section for recovery training in the JOIN app, alongside the various training types such as endurance and strength? Including cadence and power. Recovery is also an important form of training and contributes to better fitness. Currently, when I do a recovery workout, I sometimes don't know exactly what power and cadence I should be pedaling at. Thank you. Jan Verhulst

Add a summary after a ride
Regardless of how well the ride matched the suggested training, it would be nice to get a feedback/summary of how the ride that was performed, providing insight in if it had a training purpose, or was a good performance, or maybe ruining the progress made, anything, followed by a recommendation how to continue next (next time, do something specific a bit different, or do so again, or a little easier first, or all out next time, etc). I used formbeat for a short while, next to Join, and it provided me similar suggestions as Join, even though formbeat doesn’t have the ability to provide availability for the coming week, and always suggested a training of something like an hour, or a rest day. However after any ride it provided a very insightful and motivating feedback (also to not always go all out). I decided to still use Join, because of it ability to provided availability for the week, so it can better plan trainings, but the motivating and meaningful feedback does appeal to me.

Ability to schedule vacation weeks in advance
Currently Join allows me to set availability only for a few days in advance. However, this means that holiday periods (e.g. 1-2 weeks off the bike) cannot be taken into account for periodisation. For example, I recently started a training plan 4 weeks before my vacation, and I was still slowly building up fatigue in the training block when I went on vacation. I’d expect that if I can enter the vacation days in advance, join can create a shorter training block so that the vacation overlaps with the recovery week.

Fuelling suggestion
When prescribing a workout, join should suggest a recommended fuelling (e.g. HIT-session: 100g CHO/h; LIT-session (<90 min): 0-40g CHO/h (depending on following days/workouts etc.)). Then in the feedback window, you should be able to insert your total CHO intake, which could be taken into account by join somehow as well for further planning.

Extra informatie
Ik zou graag core- en krachttrainingen als aparte training in mijn schema kunnen plannen. De komende 10 dagen doe ik bewust geen fietstrainingen maar wel 2–3 coretrainingen. Ik wil dat JOIN daar rekening mee kan houden in mijn planning.”

Plannen van een wedstrijd in plaats van een groepsrit
Graag zou ik een functie zien waarmee je wedstrijden kunt plannen. In mijn situatie train ik bijvoorbeeld voor een optimale prestatie op het NK mountainbiken. Tijdens het seizoen wordt mijn trainingsschema echter regelmatig onderbroken door andere wedstrijden. Vaak zit er slechts één à twee weken tussen deze wedstrijden, waardoor het niet efficiënt is om voor iedere wedstrijd een afzonderlijk doel aan te maken. Het zou daarom erg handig zijn als je tussentijdse wedstrijden kunt toevoegen aan je trainingsplanning, zodat hier automatisch rekening mee kan worden gehouden. Daarnaast zou ik het leuk vinden als er meer op mountainbiken gerichte doelen beschikbaar komen. Dat zou de app nog beter laten aansluiten op de behoeften van mountainbikers.

Injuries or sickness
One thing I’ve always thought is lacking from apps like this is some way to modify the trajectory of the training or even pause the training because of some sort of sickness/injury, and the subsequent time off needed to get over it. Usually you come back from one of these scenarios and the app just wants to pick up where it left off, but obviously you’ve detrained to a certain extent and you’re just not where you were so a recovery period sequence of workouts is more appropriate. So I wonder if having a self-reported/ pseudo pause where the app can check in on with “are you still resting”, “are you still getting over something?” Whatever is happening, are you feeling 100% or not…? I’m sure the learning model accounts for this after you produce a less than optimal result than the algorithm was expecting. I often feel like the gains and losses are not managed well in times like this and the works out don’t match the recovery period.

Voeg de HandbikeBattle toe als een evenement (en andere paracycling dingen)
Aangezien KNWU met jullie gaat samenwerken vroeg ik mij af of dat het mogelijk is om ook support toe te voegen voor paracycling. Join en Fondo hebben mij als handbiker, erg geholpen om mijn doelen te bereiken. Fondo heeft een tijd een specifieke hoek gehad voor paracycling met daarin gespecializeerde schema’s etc. Het zou heel erg jammer zijn wanneer de paracycling kennis verdwijnt op het moment dat Fondo uit de lucht gaat. Een van DE handbike evenementen in Nederland is de handbike battle. Het zou gaaf zijn als op zijn minst deze kan worden toegevoegd als doel waar men voor kan trainen.

Please include TSS in recommended Workouts
I train on multiple platforms- and therefore would like to have the TSS Score included on the Workout. To have a better overview of the training load. This would make the structural training more professional and comparable. THANKS guys

Race wedstrijden
I enjoy training with Join, but when I ride a race, I ride back and forth to the race site. How does Join handle this? Is it better to do separate rides and load the race as a separate activity? Or as one whole activity? And, is it possible to give an option instead of A/B/C? Koers or Race
