New update to TrainerRoad's Adaptive Training uses AI to prevent fatigue and burnout before it happens.

Reno, NV – March 18, 2024 — TrainerRoad, leader in the use of AI in cycling training, has announced an unprecedented training management feature called Red Light Green Light.

"It uses all that we have learned with Machine Learning and AI over the past decade to understand how you adapt to training at a very deep level.", says Jonathan Lee, Communications Director for TrainerRoad and USAC/USAT Certified Coach. "Red Light Green Light then pairs this personal knowledge of you with the science-backed training principle of supercompensation to make sure you get enough recovery after hard rides or training sessions."

The feature functions like a high-end coach, analyzing your performance in depth right after every ride and then making instant changes to your training plan in response.

"As you near a potentially unproductive level of fatigue, the next day on your calendar might be highlighted in yellow. If you had a hard workout scheduled on that day, Adaptive Training will suggest changing it to an easier Endurance workout," says Ming Chung, Product Manager for Red Light Green Light. "If you've gone really deep, you may see the next day highlighted in red. This is Red Light Green Light recognizing a greater need for rest, so it will work together with Adaptive Training to suggest a rest day—helping you shed fatigue and get back to productive training."

Whether or not you are on a training plan, Red Light Green Light analyzes every ride and workout to help you avoid fatigue, plateaus, and burnout.

"There are a lot of cyclists who don't want to follow a training plan, but still have a big ride or race on their calendar.", says Lee. "You still want to be fast, but also want the freedom to do café rides, group rides, big adventure rides, and even the occasional race. Red Light Green Light lets you ride how you want and does the analysis for you. It protects you from excess fatigue so you're ready when it matters."

"It's not a readiness score.", Nate Pearson, CEO of TrainerRoad, is quick to point out. "Rather than tell athletes they are tired when they likely already know that, Red Light Green Light predicts and avoids unproductive levels of fatigue before they happen."

Red Light Green Light became wildly popular during public beta testing, with athletes claiming unprecedented insight into how they adapt to training, and crediting it with helping to avoid fatigue and burnout.

"The overwhelmingly positive response to the launch of Red Light Green Light builds on the momentum from the hugely popular release of AI FTP Detection, which made FTP testing a thing of the past. It's exciting to see how our developments with AI are changing training for cyclists around the world.", says Pearson. "I'd encourage every athlete to try it out. Sign up and look back at your training history to see when Red Light Green Light could have helped you avoid fatigue and burnout. We're so confident that if you don't agree with it, we're happy to give you an immediate refund."

Red Light Green Light is now available for all TrainerRoad subscribers. A TrainerRoad subscription costs $19.95/month or $189/year, and comes with a 30-day money back guarantee.
