Making Sense of TrainingPeaks: A Simple Guide to All the Acronyms

Morning All!

Hope everyone’s had a solid start to the week! 👋

With quite a few new athletes joining us over the last few weeks, I thought it would be really helpful to clear up all the confusing acronyms and abbreviations you see on TrainingPeaks (TP).

You know the ones — TSS, CTL, ATL, TSB, IF, VI, FTP, rTSS… it can feel like learning a new language!

Six years ago, Tim and I recorded a podcast where we break down all these metrics in simple, easy-to-understand terms and — most importantly — explain how they actually relate to your training and performance.

If you’re new (or even if you’ve been around a while and still get a bit lost), I highly recommend giving it a listen. It’s one of the most practical episodes we’ve ever done.

I’m always happy to jump on a quick call to explain anything in more detail if something still doesn’t click — just shoot me a message and we’ll sort it out.

Let me know if you found it helpful once you’ve had a listen!

Enjoy the rest of your week and keep crushing it!
