Key points
- Every recommendation has four parts: structure, target split, rate cap, and a one-click ErgData link.
- The structure tells you the kind of session; the target tells you how hard; the rate cap tells you how.
- The ErgData link programs your PM5 directly — open it on your phone or tablet next to the erg.
- If any part feels wrong, ask the coach in chat: easier, lower rate, shorter, or skip the hard piece.
- A recommendation is a starting point; your read of how the warm-up feels is the override the model cannot make.
