Your Emails

The email is the product. You don't have to open the app. You ride your bike, the data flows in from your device, and on your schedule you get a short note that tells you where your fitness stands, in plain English, with numbers that mean something.

They come from RideTool reports so you can filter them in any email client.

Pick your cadence

From Account → Email Digest, choose how often it lands:

  • Daily: every morning, for when you're building something and want the number in front of you.
  • 3x a week (the default): Monday, Wednesday, Friday. The rhythm most riders settle into.
  • Weekly: Monday only, the week-ahead read.
  • Off: no emails. Your data keeps flowing either way.

Whatever the cadence, emails arrive in the morning, your local time.

What's in each email

Every email has the same four sections, a snapshot of your Me card, delivered to your inbox.

Fitness

Your fitness number right now, plus how it's changed over the last 2 weeks and last 24 weeks. A verb tells you the direction at a glance: on the rise, holding, or starting to slip.

Power-to-weight

Your W/kg number with the same 2-week and 24-week lookbacks. Both levers, training and body weight, are captured here. Your FTP and weight are shown so you know exactly what's driving the number.

Recovery

How rested you are today in one word, tired, almost ready, ready, fresh, or peaked. Plus a 3-day lookahead so you can plan ahead. Tomorrow, and the day after.

24-week consistency chart

Your consistency: your efforts over time. An effort bar for every ride over the last 24 weeks, with your fitness line on top. When the line rises, your engine is growing. The slope tells the story faster than any number.

The 3x a week rhythm

Monday tells you where fitness stands heading into the week and whether you're fresh enough to push or need an easier start. Wednesday is the midweek pulse check: recovering or building, push or back off. Friday is the weekend preview, what shape you're in for the days when most riders get their hours, so you can plan a long ride, a short one, or a guilt-free rest day.

No app needed

Most users never open the app. The emails are designed to stand alone, everything you need in under a minute. The app is here when you want to look closer, but it isn't required.
