Berechne den Load

Description

Funktion um die Last (Load) zu berechnen

Usage

calculateLoad(df)

Arguments

df	data.frame der Uebersichtstabelle (aggregierte Daten pro Training)

Details

The idea behind training load is to have a metric how a training has an effect to your body. Second, training load is (in theory) independent of the sport type or the intensity. Thereby, we are able to compare a short but intensive training with a long but low intense training.

Since I do not have a power meter I have to estimate the load and the training stress score (TSS) based on heart rate. Then it is called hrTSS. see https://help.trainingpeaks.com/hc/en-us/articles/204071944-Training-Stress-Scores-TSS-Explained hrTSS has some shortcomings
Quote from https://de-eu.wahoofitness.com/blog/ate-what-is-tss/
"Heart rate TSS or hrTSS is a less accurate model for determining your TSS of a workout. While hrTSS is accurate when performing steady-state efforts, or endurance rides, it is far less accurate when intervals come into play.
hrTSS is based on time spent in each heart rate zone based on your Threshold Heart Rate.
When there are large or frequent fluctuations in your heart rate data, such as data post-interval session, it is hard for an accurate TSS to be quantified from this as it takes time for your HR to stabilize pre, during, and post effort."

Value

df

Note

add a column that contains the load of each activity one way to calculate load is to multiply time in hours by avg HR and add 2.5 times avg HR this relates to load by y = ax + b of a = 0.418, b = -150
These numbers are taken from https://www.r-bloggers.com/2022/11/form-and-file-estimating-running-form-in-r/ and have to be adjusted for me -> adjusted: a = 0.3398, b = -110
