Calculator Inputs and Outputs
Inputs
- Session duration (minutes) — example: 60
- Session effort (RPE) — example: 7
- Number of similar sessions — example: 4
Results
- Weekly session-RPE load (AU)
- Load per session (AU)
- Weekly training time (minutes)
Formula used
Session-RPE load = duration in minutes × perceived exertion; weekly load multiplies by sessions.
How to Use the Training Load Calculator
Enter the requested values, confirm the units and assumptions, then select Calculate Training Load. The default inputs provide a working example, and the supporting outputs make the result easier to check.
Formula
Session-RPE load = duration in minutes × perceived exertion; weekly load multiplies by sessions.
Understanding the Results
The primary answer appears first, followed by related values, conversions, or comparisons. Calculations retain additional internal precision before the displayed result is rounded.
Accuracy Tips
- Use consistent units and measured values.
- Review whether the formula assumptions match your situation.
- For estimates, include realistic waste, efficiency, fees, or contingency values where available.
