Move, copy or delete a session

Open any session and the row of chips under the start button does all four. What each one costs you in terms of the rest of the week is not the same, so it is worth knowing which is which.

Moving one to another day

  1. Tap Reschedule

    A full-screen calendar opens on the session's current day. You can choose anything from today up to ninety days ahead.

  2. Check what the day already holds

    The legend marks your new day, the current one, and any day that already has a session on it. Underneath, a COACH CHECK card says what the move would do to your week.

  3. Save it

    Tap RESCHEDULE SESSION. Moving a session you had skipped also un-skips it.

What each action does to the rest of your week

  • Move. Nothing else changes. One move should not cost you a reshuffled week. If your coach's note named a day around the old one, a line that no longer fits the new day is taken out.
  • Skip. Nothing else changes either. The session shows as skipped and your week stays exactly as planned.
  • Edit the exercises. Nothing else changes, and the session becomes yours. Replace the exercise a first-week measurement is taken with, or have your coach rewrite that session's exercises or take that exercise out in chat, and it stops asking for the reading.
  • Duplicate. Your coach first checks whether the days around the copy need to change, and leaves them alone when they do not.
  • Delete. Same again. Removing a session can change what the rest of the week has to carry, so your coach checks, and reworks the days around it only when the week needs it.

If you moved something and now want the week rebalanced around it, ask your coach in chat. That is the one place a full rebuild is offered.

Copying, skipping and deleting

Duplicate opens the same calendar, starting a week out. The copy carries the exercises but none of the results, so it is a fresh session to do rather than a second record of one you finished. As with a move, a line of your coach's note that names a day the new one does not fit is left off the copy.

Skip asks why, with chips for no time, tired, sore or a niggle, unwell and other, and a box for anything else you want your coach to know. The sheet says plainly that the rest of your week stays as planned.

Delete asks you to confirm and then removes the session for good. There is no undo.

Why a moved session stays put

Any session you move, edit or duplicate becomes yours. From that moment your coach treats it as fixed and plans around it rather than replacing it.

A coach session you moved here, or edited here or through chat, still counts as one of that week's coach sessions, so a rebuild does not add another on top of it. A copy you made with Duplicate is extra. A session moved through chat stays your coach's, so a later rebuild can place it again.

That is what makes the change stick. Without it, the next rebuild would quietly put your Tuesday session back on Monday, which is exactly what you were trying to avoid.

Common questions

I moved a session and nothing else changed. Is that a bug?
No, it is deliberate. Moving one session should not reshuffle your whole week. It goes where you put it and everything else stays. If you do want the week reworked around it, ask your coach in chat.
Why can my coach not move my session back?
Because once you move or edit a session it belongs to you. Your coach plans around it from then on rather than over it. That is what stops a rebuild undoing the change you just made.
How far ahead can I reschedule?
From today to ninety days out. Past days are not offered, since a session you have not done cannot be moved into the past.
What is the COACH CHECK card on the reschedule screen?
A read of what the new day would mean for your week: whether anything else is already there, and whether the day would get too heavy. It is worked out from your real plan and your next race.
What is the difference between skipping and deleting?
Skipping keeps the session in your history marked as missed, and tells your coach why if you say. Deleting removes it entirely and cannot be undone.
