Check Training Volume

Riduck provides two methods to track and analyze a rider's training intensity and volume:
Training load, commonly referred to as "volume" in sports, is calculated by combining exercise intensity and duration.
The Training Stress Score (TSS), frequently used in cycling, quantifies how much a rider has exercised relative to their individual Functional Threshold Power (FTP).
Pressing the button at the top of the Riduck dashboard displays the training guide.
Selecting the weekly training volume guide here allows you to see my own weekly training volume (wTSS) calculated by Riduck in segments.
The weekly training volume guide is calculated by Riduck using available information such as FTP, TTE, body weight, and other factors like gender, occupation, age, and lifestyle. It may vary slightly depending on these factors. If you feel that your actual physical condition differs from the guided weekly training volume, consider evaluating it along with other indicators or using it as a supplementary measure.
In the Riduck dashboard under Training Trends, the yellow number displayed for each item represents the accumulated weekly training load (wTSS) for each week (from Monday to Sunday).
By observing the condition displayed at the top of the chart, you can easily determine which range of the weekly training load guide the accumulated TSS for the past 7 days falls into.
If you frequently commute by bike or engage in long-distance rides like randonneuring, it's easy for your Training Stress Score (TSS) to accumulate, potentially leading to overtraining. If you believe that the training status displayed does not accurately reflect your current physical condition due to this type of riding, consider adjusting your training load in the settings accordingly to better align with your body's needs.
Riduck provides a personalized exercise status management chart based on the rider's FTP and riding data.
It's advisable to maintain a balance (balance) between -10 and -30 for skill improvement on regular days, while before competitions or events, raising the balance through adequate rest and recovery can yield favorable results.
