Weight program TSS?

I’m currently on a weight program that I purchased. I noticed it doesn’t record TSS on my leg days. My buddy has a coach that records TSS for his workouts. Can you explain why we do not on your plans?

Thanks

Because TSS is an aerobic power based metric. Weight lifting is a strength metric and doesn’t count towards TSS.

When TSS first came out from Dr. Andy Coggan weight lifting came up and we decided based on the scientific literature that TSS from weight lifting is not a part of the impulse-response performance model that we build aka the modern day Performance Manager Chart.
