Plan Your Workout Questions (Poll)

Please answer the above if you use the scheduler or are thinking to use it.

So far, the majority is in favor of the "View Your Schedule" page and adding a tool to adjust weeks. I should have both ready this week.  

If we are going to go the attached file route, please make it a pure text file (importable by any app without cleanup) with a sortable filename repeated as the first entry in the txt (like the WOD title used to be)

The dry taxonomy of the exercises does not need adornments, etc... anyway.

Easily doable

in the case of elements being held back due to lack ofstrength but primarily for purposes of lacking iM mastery, it'd be nice to be able to choose when to move onto the next PE rather than the scheduler continuing on its course. kind of like when you get to week 11-12 if there's a part where it asks if you "passed" so that you can move onto the next PE. unless it's already included and i haven't heard of it xD

Great suggestion; the same would apply at the completion of each microcycle.

Definitely the ability to re-do a week. I've done that a few times already, but not on all exercises, which defeats the purpose of the scheduler

Which scenario are you describing for the individual element?

1) Week X,  Week Y, Week Y,  (Deload Week),  Week Z, New Progression/Microcycle

2) Week X, Week Y, Week Y ,Week Z ,(Deload Week)

3) Week X, Week Y, Week Y, Week Z, New Progression/Microcycle

4) Week X, Week Y, Week Y, (Deload Week), New Progression/Microcycle

This shouldn't happen enough to warrant a tool for that. If it does, you are missing some other factor in your training or on the wrong number of training days per week. Part of the purpose of the automation is to keep a degree of fire lit under the behind to keep you from wallowing too long on a particular area. I'll provide basic tools for the occasional setback, but if the scheduler starts to "run away" from your current level, it's time to reexamine some items and ask for help in the appropriate forum.

I believe it would 1).

I always follow the de-load schedule every fourth week, and I don't skip progressions/weeks, but do them later.
