TrainingPeaks have added a new Premium feature: Athletes Availability.

How to use Athlete Availability

  1. From your Premium Athlete account, navigate to the TrainingPeaks calendar.
  2. Select the ‘+’ icon on the day to which you’d like to add unavailability.
  3. From the pop-up window, select “Availability.”
  4. An Availability Wizard opens. 
  5. Choose the date range for days you are unavailable to train.  By default, TrainingPeaks creates one day of unavailability.  Change the date range to add more. 
  6. If desired, type in a description of why the day is unavailable for better communication with your coach.
  7. When finished, save.
  8. The day of unavailability appears on your TrainingPeaks calendar.
