Plan vs actual first
Always compare what was planned with what was completed before interpreting any load metric.
A training analysis stack built for daily decisions
The useful question is not "what is the score". The useful question is "what should change next".
Load and response together
Read CTL/ATL/TSB with effective VO2max and recent performance to avoid one-metric decisions.
Single-session adjustments
Prefer small, explicit changes that can be reviewed after the next key workout.
Decision log
Keep reasoned adjustments visible so coaches and self-coached athletes can audit progress over time.
Training analysis FAQ
Practical questions on turning analysis results into the next training action.
What makes a training analysis app practical for real athletes?
It links metrics to decisions: what changed, why it changed, and how the next workout should be adjusted.
Should training analysis prioritize weekly or daily review?
Both matter. Weekly review sets direction, daily review handles execution drift and recovery constraints.
How do PMC and effective VO2max complement each other?
PMC tracks stress accumulation and freshness. effective VO2max tracks performance response. Together they reduce blind adjustments.
Can training analysis improve plan adherence?
Yes. Clear evidence and explicit next-step decisions reduce overcorrection and keep the plan executable.
