Having strength workouts part of the weekly snapshot
Strength workouts should be included in your weekly snapshot, it’s supposed to show your “weekly snapshot” so why would a strength workout not be part of that?
They were a few weeks ago, seems silly to void them now as it makes is difficult to see what work we have done each day without looking over everything.1 vote -
Add or change strength exercises mid workout
Very often weights or a machine are being used and we need to swap the planned exercise for something similar. Like the BB bench is busy, so we can do DB bench press instead. Or we want to add something we didn't program previously.

New Strength Builder
As other coaches have mentioned here, it would be great if we could prescribe strength training based on percentages of 1RM.
In addition, something very simple and essential is the addition of a field for interval time between sets, which could contain a timer for the athlete to keep track of. As already seen in other apps.
Also, as I have seen mentioned here, a field for linking sets of the same block, such as A1 + A2 in a "super set" and A3 separately, but in the same block.
In the "reps" field, it would be interesting to have…

Programme using percentage 1RM strength tests
Is there anything on the road map where as coaches we would be able to programme strength based movements from an athletes 1RM. My understanding and chatting to one of the sales directors is that the current limitations are reps sets and RPE. But it would be really useful to add a % of their 1RM aligned to the type of strength training.
Seeing as %'s of thresholds and zone training can already be done, is this something that will be coming for strength training?

Strength Metrics
I scrolled through the feedback and ideas of others, and it looks like you are making great efforts to make changes, so thank you TrainingPeaks Team!
If you have not already, I suggest looking at the App, Strong. They have a really great format, but I'd rather use TrainingPeaks because it's nice having both my cardio and strength workouts in one area. The new Strength app from TP is very good! For me to really love it and not want to supplement elsewhere, here is what I think could be useful.
1) Heart Rate monitoring during exercise - I am…
38 votesHi all!
We’re excited to share that Exercise History is now live in the TrainingPeaks mobile app (v12.62.0)!
You can access this feature directly within your strength workouts to view past performances.
We appreciate your suggestions, and your input continues to drive updates like this. I'm going to keep this suggestion labeled as Planned as the remaining items are still on our roadmap.
Thanks for being a part of the TrainingPeaks community!

Prescribe rep ranges in New Strength Builder
Please allow specifying a rep range for strength workout exercises, not just a target rep. The New Strength Builder is a great step in the right direction to fully-functional programming of strength workouts in TrainingPeaks, but it is still missing critical features like this.
Being able to specify the rep range is important for communicating and adhering to the workout plan. For example, if the coach programs 4 reps with the mindset of "at least 4" and the athlete executes 3 because it is "about 4", this is quite different than if the coach programs 15 reps intending a range…

Add Paddle Sports
I would like to see paddle sprots added as a workout type. This workout type would be able to cover
Outrigger Paddling
Standup paddleboard
K1
C1
Kayaking
Canoeing
Dragon Boat
Whitewater Rafting
Surf Ski
PaddleboardingTraining Peaks is used for more than Bike, Run, Swim. I heard a podcast with Dirk Friel recently and he stated "Other" was the largest growing sport sector currently. Adding a general "Paddle Sport" would allow you to enable a lot of functionality across all of the sport types I listed making TrainingPeaks great for water endurance sports.
Also to note, your competitor Final Surge,…

New strength workout builder to allow modifications once a workout has started
Currently once you start a workout which has been created in the new strength workout builder, you cannot alter some of the key parameters (e.g. adding sets, merging to create supersets, etc). This kind of functionality is so useful (and is built into the free versions of apps like 'Strength Log'). It would be great to have this available as part of the TP version.
Also not sure why you can only create the workout on the desktop app, and then only execute it on the mobile app?

Include RPE as a prescription parameter in strength workouts
To prescribe strength workouts using RPE, you have to enter these details in the coaching comments section...this is a laborious and inflexible solution to programming strength workouts using RPE (like the endurance workout builder allows).
My suggestion is to include RPE as a parameter in building strength workouts. This would vastly improve each workout's flexibility, precision, and presentation.

Uploaded strength workouts to sync with programmed strength workouts using new strength programming feature
Ability to have uploaded strength workouts auto sync with the new strength programming sessions programmed for athletes in their programs as currently it keeps them separated and cannot lync/sync them together to be completed unless you check off each and every exercise.

Allow for More Sport Types
When selecting a workout type, it would be great to have an 'indoor bike' option. To use clearly as an indication to athletes to complete the session on an indoor trainer, rather than out on the road.
