Using my Fenix 7 for the last 2 months I understand that the load points after every run are all assigned to a single load type. E.g. in October I've carried out 3 Progressive Runs, something like 1/3 Low Aerobic + 1/3 High Aerobic + 1/3 Anaerobic, or 2/5 + 2/5 + 1/5 respectively. In all those occasions, load points were assigned all to High Aerobic load type which makes very hard to balance the load focus. Since High Aerobic and Anaerobic will gain load points much faster (which is indeed very intuitive) than Low Aerobic, this latter will always lag much behind unless a large specific effort is done to compensate (as very well documented here in the forum with lot of dedicated topics), leading to the notorious "Low Aerobic Shortage" issue.
Would it be more helpful if the load points were distributed to each load type carried out inside a single run ? Or, if there's a specific reason for the model/algorithm to work like it currently does, would it make sense to add a further activity type like "Progressive Run" where the watch behaves differently than a normal run ?
Currently the only other way around this is to stop the run session on the watch when increasing the effort and start a new one at that point, gaining 3 smaller running sessions rather than a larger one without actually stopping the running legs meanwhile. It might work though cumbersome and actually not registering the real training workout in the history as a progressive.
I'd love to hear feedback from other users as well about this.
