Availability and rest

Training days

A season carries the weekdays a team normally trains. You set them when you create the season, and you can change them later.

StrideUp uses them when it fills a stretch of the season from a pattern. It never writes a day on its own, and it never stops you planning a Sunday.

Rest is a real placement

An empty day and a rest day are different things.

	Unplanned	Rest
Means	The coach has not planned it yet	The coach prescribed rest
Athlete sees	Nothing for that day	A rest day
Stored as	Nothing	A placement, like a workout

Rest follows whoever you are viewing, so one group can rest while another trains. You remove it the same way you clear any day.

Unavailable windows

An unavailable window marks days one athlete cannot train: a holiday, work travel, exams, an injury break.

The window creates an empty branch over those days, so the athlete’s plan reads as rest for that period. The branch merges back when they return, and the athlete follows the team plan again from that date.

You do not clear their days one by one, and the team plan stays as it is.

Good to know

An unavailable window records that you did not expect the athlete. Attendance on the day is something you still track your own way.
