Annual Training Plan

You can do this using the notes feature and putting in outline workouts ahead of time to etc.

Appreciate its not completely the same as TP functionality but it is a good middle ground.

I mark out weeks and training blocks and some outline workouts and then start to fill them out in more detail as I settle on what a block is going to look like.

I would suggest that having an outline of what you need and want to do ahead of a event is good but the detail of that is best planned on shorter time frame - eg. 6 weeks - as a lot can change block to block.

Thanks Olly, that make sense :+1:t2:

I use “Holidays” for single day Holidays and Notes for Vacations

I use a layered approach, where the initial planning is done in Excel (ATP). I then add notes to replicate my ATP from Excel, for the full year, to show the various training blocks (Mesocycles). The weekly target values (Microcycles) are then updated on the activities/calendar pages (target hours and TSS). The graph on the fitness page then shows actual against my weekly target (TSS and Hours separately). It’s a makeshift plan that is similar to TP, but customised for my own use and that of the athletes.

Have you setup permissions in Excel, i.e. the link to the API, using data source settings?

The access permissions are not complete.
Goto Data - Get Data - Data Source settings - Global Permissions - Edit Permissions - Edit Credentials.
Use Basic - The username = API_KEY and the password is your personal API-key found next to the UserId in Intervals.

Hello! this post is now super long but I really have to sort through this ATP business in fairly short order. I did look thru and based on what I found it doesn’t work for me. So, my setup is I’m on a Mac with Office 365. When I pull the spreadsheet into Excel it’s a mess - so maybe I have the wrong one?

In any event, can you advise if I can use the spreadsheet on Mac/Excel 365 (client version)? And, can you put me toward the how to once I have the spreadsheet filled out?

I’ll check later, when I’m home; haven’t worked on the Mac version for a while. At the time, it didn’t allow using the Data Query.

Might be better to (unofficially) wait for the ATP in Intervals.

The OData option is what should be used for Mac, but it doesn’t work for me.
