The seasonal planning chart (SPC) is a graphic display that helps illustrate your training load over time, including both past values from your activity history and future items that have been added to your schedule manually or via a generated training plan. This graph can be turned on by clicking the arrow at the bottom of the calendar page. The SPC serves as both a preview of what's to come, as well as a tool used in building your own training plans. 


The graph is color coded to show your fatigue level at the end of each week, as well as the predicted levels for future training in order to show where you are building volume versus decreasing in order to peak for an event. The SPC also can be used to evaluate training levels from past seasons and to help discover patterns of training load when peak form was achieved.
