Stryd Labs Update: Introducing Smart Workout Creator—A New Capability in Stryd Assistant
Today, we're introducing an update to the Stryd Assistant with the new Smart Workout Creator in Stryd Labs, a feature that makes it easier than ever to create personalized, power-based workouts using your own words.
Whether you have a specific interval session in mind or just a general idea of what you want to accomplish, Smart Workout Creator helps turn your ideas into structured workouts built around your Critical Power.
Let’s take a closer look at how Smart Workout Creator works.
Describe Your Workout in Your Own Words
Have a workout in mind but don't want to spend time building every interval yourself?
With Smart Workout Creator, getting started is as simple as telling the Stryd Assistant what you want to run.
You can describe a specific workout, including your warmup, intervals, recovery periods, and cooldown, or start with a rough idea and let the Assistant help build it out.
There's no need to manually enter every step or calculate power targets before getting started.
Just describe the session you have in mind, and Smart Workout Creator will turn your idea into a structured workout.
Get a Personalized, Power-Based Workout in Seconds
Once you've described your workout, the Stryd Assistant transforms your request into a complete, structured session with personalized power targets.
Each workout includes power targets displayed in both watts and as a percentage of your Critical Power, making it easy to understand the intended intensity of every interval.
You'll also see a summary of your workout's key training metrics, including:
- Duration: The total estimated time needed to complete your workout.
- Distance: The estimated distance you'll cover during the session.
- Running Stress Score (RSS): The estimated training stress of the workout.
With your workout structure, power targets, and training metrics in one place, you can review your session and understand what to expect before heading out for your run.
Make It Your Own: Refine, Save, or Schedule Your Workout
Your first workout doesn't have to be your final version.
Smart Workout Creator gives you the flexibility to fine-tune your session, whether you want to adjust a single interval, change the overall structure, or save it exactly as it is.
Once your workout is created, you have four options:
- Open Workout Editor: Make manual adjustments to individual workout steps, durations, or power targets.
- Refine with Assistant: Describe what you'd like to change, and let the Stryd Assistant update your workout.
- Save to Library: Keep your newly created workout in your library so you can return to it whenever you're ready.
- Schedule on Calendar: Add your workout directly to your training calendar and make it part of your upcoming training.
This flexibility makes it easy to go from a workout idea to a session that's ready to run, without having to build everything from scratch.
