Dashboard

Your Week at a Glance

When you log in, RideTool shows your current week. Each day lists your rides with key stats — distance, time, elevation, power, and heart rate. Rest days are clearly marked so you can see your training rhythm.

Weather Forecast

A 7-day weather forecast appears on your dashboard, based on the location of your most recent ride. It shows daily highs and lows, precipitation chance, and wind — so you can plan your rides around the weather.

Source Badges

Each ride shows a small badge indicating where the data came from — Wahoo, Strava, Garmin, or a manual FIT upload. If a ride was synced from a FIT file (higher quality), you'll also see a .fit badge.

Fitness Metrics

RideTool tracks three key fitness numbers. Don't worry about the acronyms — here's what they mean:

  • Fitness (CTL) — Your long-term training load, built over weeks. Think of it as "how much base have I built?" Higher is fitter.
  • Fatigue (ATL) — How hard you've been training recently (last 7 days). High fatigue means you've been pushing it.
  • Form (TSB) — The balance between fitness and fatigue. Positive means you're fresh and ready to go hard. Negative means you're carrying fatigue and might want to ease up.

You can ask RideTool about your fitness anytime — just type something like "what is my current fitness?" or "how's my form?"

Consistency

The Consistency tab is your home screen — it answers "am I showing up?" with a streak counter, ride dots, and fitness direction at a glance. Tap Current Status to see the training metrics underneath. See Training Metrics for what each acronym means.
