Using the Calendar

The calendar is the heart of Coachbox. Here you see all planned and completed training in a clear weekly format.

Calendar Features

Week View

The calendar displays a weekly view by default with:

  • Days of the week - Monday to Sunday in columns
  • Workouts - Planned and completed workouts per day
  • Annual plan - Training period and focus for the week
  • Totals - Weekly statistics on the right side

Training Types

Workouts are displayed with color coding:

  • Swimming - Blue
  • Cycling - Green
  • Running - Orange
  • Strength - Purple
  • Other - Gray

Workout Details

Each workout card shows its title plus a set of metrics, for example duration, distance, average pace or power, and heart rate. Which metrics appear, and in what order, is up to you: see Choosing what each card shows below.

Display options

The filter button (the sliders icon, top right) opens a panel with three columns:

Calendar options panel

  • Sports: show or hide each sport, and notes.
  • Options: what each workout card shows, such as the description, segments, the planned/executed values, and Details (the workout metrics).
  • Totals: which weekly totals appear in the rightmost column (distance, duration, SS, TSS, RPE). These are week totals, separate from the metrics on the individual cards.

Choosing what each card shows

Details turns the metrics on the workout cards on or off. When Details is on, the gear icon next to it lets you pick exactly which metrics each card shows, and in what order, per sport.

Card fields picker

  1. Open the filter panel (sliders icon) and make sure Details is on.
  2. Click the gear icon next to Details.
  3. Pick the sport you want to configure at the top.
  4. Check or uncheck fields. Besides duration, distance, pace/speed, heart rate, power and cadence, you can also add Stress Score (SS), TSS and RPE.
  5. Drag the rows by the handle on the left to change the order they appear on the card.
  6. Click Save. Use Reset to default to restore that sport's standard set.

Good to know

  • The selection is saved per sport, so you can show different metrics for cycling than for running or swimming.
  • A metric only shows when the workout actually has a value for it, even when it is checked.
  • This is separate from the field selection inside a workout's detail screen. To change the fields you fill in or see when you open a workout, see Customizing workout fields.
  • Use the left and right arrows to navigate between weeks
  • Click Today to return to the current week
  • Select a specific date via the date picker

Actions

  • Upload - Manually upload an activity file
  • Action - Perform bulk actions on selected workouts

Adding a Workout

Right-click on a day to add a new workout:

  1. Choose the workout type (swimming, cycling, running, etc.)
  2. Fill in the workout details
  3. Save the workout

Viewing a Workout

Click on a workout to open it and see more details:

  • Full workout description
  • Interval structure
  • Analysis charts (for completed workouts)
  • Planned vs. completed comparison

Quick actions via right-click

Right-click a workout card for quick actions like analysing, printing and exporting, without opening the workout first.

Marking a planned workout as not executed

Sometimes a planned session does not happen. Instead of opening the workout and changing the field, right-click the card and choose Mark as not executed. The workout stays in the calendar but counts as missed. The same way, Mark as planned sets it back.
