Any and all workouts are already no vid if you toggle off the video and sound in the workout player!!! The choice is already there and very easy to make. You can then do the workout with no vid, or use the mini player overlay over any video of your choice.
This is why it makes no sense to “request” no vid workouts. They all already are!
People wanted specific training videos without any video. I completely aware you can use the mini -player (if it doesn’t crash, which happens with regularity). There’s really a point here, nobody is making you ride them. As to Sufferfest videos, there are more coming and some of them are going to get refreshed.
It’s really quick and easy to make a new workout without a video, and each video is a specific workout. So it’s much quicker to add new workouts as a no-vid and then maybe add a video for it later - or not. It requires time and work to create them and put them together. And licensing fees if they involve races. Especially if they are as creative and curated as a Sufferfest video. Even Open 30, 40, 60, 120 with racing videos need licensing agreements of some sort.
And if you don’t like them or don’t use them it’s of no offense to you if they still exist. I understand your points about turning any video workout into a no-vid. But I don’t understand your strong stance against them existing at all. They have existed for quite some time and are used by many. And some of them have eventually been turned into video workouts. They have their place alongside the video workouts even if they are not used by all. Just like how Full Frontal is avoided by many.
Yep. No video is optional on all workouts so video and music footage would be nice to make those novid wo more appealing to me. Having no entertainement was one of the reasons I got tired with Troad.
