QUESTION:

I have workouts sitting in my 'Personal Folder' that I would like to get rid of - is there a way to do this in PC Coach Light?

ANSWER:

Yes. Your Personal Folder consists of workouts that you and/or the training plan software placed on your calendar AND any workout you have created yourself in Workout Form Editor. (In other words, after you remove it from your Personal Folder it will show up again if placed on your calendar in the future.) To remove a workout from your Personal Folder choose Tools/Workout Form Editor from your top tool bar. Once in Workout Editor, click on the open folder icon in the tool bar, select the workout you wish to remove from your Personal Folder and say 'ok'. Next, from your top toolbar choose File/Delete - the program will ask you to confirm the deletion. If you say yes it will warn you if you have entries on your calendar using the workout you are going to delete - if you proceed to delete, it will delete all existing calendar entries, including attached SonicLink data, that are using this workout. You will have an option to Cancel the deletion or to continue by choosing 'Destroy'.


QUESTION:

Is there any place to attach text notes to a workout? I like to keep track of weather conditions, terrain, overall quality of my workout each day.

ANSWER:

Yes, you can use the Log Notes feature in PC Coach. Once you have completed a workout you can access the Log Notes feature a few different ways. If you have Workout View open there is an icon on the left toolbar of the Workout View window that looks like a pen. You can also click on the 'L' icon in your top speed bar or choose View/Log Notes from your top tool bar.


QUESTION:

I would like to keep track of some personal data each day (e.g., weight, resting heart rate) in my PC Coach program. How can I do this?

ANSWER:

You have two options. First, one of the workout folders in PC Coach Elite is called 'Personal Stats' - in that folder is a workout called 'Health Log.' The Health Log allows you to track weight, resting HR, sleep, etc… daily by placing that workout on your calendar and completing it each day. Once these workouts are placed on your calendar and periodically completed you can begin tracking trends and history through Report Editor.


QUESTION:

I would like to export my SonicLink Data into a different program (e.g. Microsoft Excel…) - is this possible?

ANSWER:

No, PC Coach's data is stored in a proprietary format and can not be exported to other programs or files.
