Is there a "free ride" setting in the workout creator?

I want to have the work intervalls in ERG mode at a certain wattage, but during the active rest in between i want to choose the resistance by just using my gears on the bike. Is there such a function in the workout creator?

Yes, that’s called ā€œMixed modeā€ in Xert. I haven’t used the creator to build one myself but I suspect you just set a ā€˜grade’ to simulate for the freeride/none-ERG intervals.

I cant see any ā€œmixed modeā€. Where do i find it?

These are the choices it seems?

It’s just what the ones that are in the library are tagged with to tell you that you have to set your workout player to ā€˜auto’ to get both ERG and simulation portions play as intended.
I think you just create a workout and select intervals with watt or any other ERG and some with grade to simulate a gradient in real life.

The last one, Slope is where you select the gradient for the slope. Sorry, I didn’t have it in front of me to know the used wording.

Ok great :ok_hand: Thank you!

@Adjev yes, you can set the slope of the trainer for the ā€˜free ride’ sections. For an easy recovery step, I’d recommend using 0-1% slope.

Note that you can still set a target wattage for those intervals, but it’ll be up to your gearing/cadence to hit the target power. Hope that makes sense!

Awsome, thanks!
