Link Phases to Parent Phase
Phases by default are created a a Parent Phase and are not linked to any other phase
In the master plan you might want to link phases to a parent phase
For example you might create an overall physical track with longer phases – ie 8 weeks of winter base. Then you might have a strength track that you want to capture phases within this that are connected. Follow these steps
Using Edit Phase function
Edit Plan
Create your parent track (ie Physical)
Create other tracks
Add a phase to that track
Edit Phase
Select + Link to Parent phase
Choose phase to link to from phases in the list
Update phase
Now you will see Parent phase showing as Macro phase (parent), and Linked phase showing as Meso
When you click on a phase that is linked to another phase both will be higlighted in your plan
This also means when you drag the parent phase to a different date, all sub-phases move with it
Using Drag and Drop function
Edit Plan
Create your parent track (ie Physical)
Create other tracks
Select phase you want to link to a parent phase
Drag and hover it over the parent phase
Release when progress bar is complete
Phases are now linked
Un-Linking Phases
To unlink plan phases from Master Plan track in Athlete Plan
1. Edit Plan
2. Right click phase you wish to unlink from Master Track
3. Click Unlink
4. This phase can now be independently moved
If you try to move a phase that is a phase linked to the master plan you will be prompted to confirm you want to unlink and create an athlete-specific phase
