The soon to be released big Intervals.icu update supports fully customisable training zones. There is a “Defaults” button that puts in Joe Friel’s zones. Any other sets of zones I should add to a “Defaults” drop down? I need %FTP or %LTHR or %MaxHR for each zone, then its easy to implement. ---

Will the update also allow for custom number of zones? Maybe also include cycling power zones as % of (5)6min MMP as a VO2max surrogat, might be useful to some? Also: does that include running pace zones? ---

Yes you can now have between 3 and 7 zones (+ sweet spot for power) with whatever names you like, different for each sport and separate for HR and power. Pace zones are under development. I had to cut that for the first release just to try control scope. ---

To elaborate on the suggestion about % of VO2max for zones: Could be very user-tweakable in the form of X-min of X-day-MMP: So for example, if a user thinks or has lab results that indicate a 5min30sec MMP corresponds well with their VO2max, they could set their zones based on that for say the past 90-day MMP EDIT: I guess that is already possible as is, if one was to increase the detection range for eFTP to 5min and than just do the math backwards from that to P-VO2max. But then again I’m not familiar enough with eFTP calculation and whether the factor between VO2max- and eFTP is constant for the curves used behind the scenes. ---

One default should line up with the TrainerRoad zones, and I’m sure it will ---

Seiler’s 3 HR zones would be good, if not already included. ---

It would be good to have Jack Daniels Training zones. ---

I need to come back to this because I want to make a specific training zone to use in ALL the athletes that I train. And once its costumized (I use Jack Daniels), I need to update EACH athlete with the percentages that I really want. TLDR: There is any way to implement a costumized training zone in order to use to all the athletes that I coach?? ---

You can copy your own zones onto an athlete you coach using the presets menu. Your zones for the sport appear at the bottom of the list: ![Screenshot 2023-09-01 at 18.16.36](https://forum.intervals.icu/uploads/default/original/3X/b/3/b3a76c0021fa8907f49c3bc84dc4a34ffb9beb05.jpeg) ---

Just a small note/reminder: The Norweigan/Seiler 5/3-zone-model starts from 55% max HR and not at 0% of max HR. Thus, time spent training below 55% of max HR do not contribute to the training volume in the green Zone 1. Seiler provides some discussion on this in [Long, low intensity endurance sessions: When is Low too low? When is Long too long? - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3GXc474Hu5U).
