SYMPTOM-FIRST TRIAGE MAP
Immediate medical bypass above training-stop and planning-review lanes
Red-flag symptoms bypass all workload arithmetic. Fever, severe pain, load change, sleep, and persistence then occupy separate lanes so no average can cancel a warning.
FLAG-BY-FLAG REGISTER
Entered evidence, routing logic, and non-negotiable limits
The register shows each flag independently rather than turning symptoms into a composite readiness score.
| Flag | Entered state | Gate | Reason | Response |
|---|
SCREEN SETUP
Answer from current observable symptoms
- Enter acute symptoms before looking at workload.
- Treat fainting, chest symptoms, and new neurological signs as medical issues.
- Enter fever and severe pain even when the planned session is important.
- Use workload change and sleep only as context.
- Do not use a favorable result to override a clinician or emergency instruction.
NO COMPENSATING SCORE
A good sleep value cannot cancel chest pain or fainting
Weighted readiness scores can hide dangerous evidence when favorable inputs offset unfavorable ones. This screen uses explicit OR gates for that reason.
The workload and sleep lanes support planning after urgent and stop-training issues have been addressed; they do not estimate injury probability.
TRIAGE LOGIC
Put symptoms ahead of workload percentages
Immediate symptoms activate the medical bypass. Fever or severe pain activates the training-stop gate. Workload change, sleep, and soreness persistence remain planning-review context only.

ROUTING ORDER
The map answers three questions in sequence
Safety precedes training optimization.
Is urgent medical assessment needed?
-Chest, fainting, or neurological flags activate the top bypass.
Should training stop now?
-Urgent symptoms, fever, or severe pain activate the stop gate.
What planning context remains?
-Load change, sleep, and persistent soreness support a later review.
Decision takeaway: Address acute symptoms first. Training metrics become relevant only after immediate safety and illness concerns are resolved.
ESCALATION BOUNDARY
Examples of evidence that this page cannot assess
- Trauma severity
- Cardiac rhythm or blood pressure
- Concussion examination
- Neurological deficit
- Hydration and heat illness
- Infection severity
- Return-to-sport clearance
Applied decisions
Why the symptom gate outranks the workload history
Low workload, acute chest symptom
Recent training change is small, but chest pain is entered.
What the result clarifies: The immediate medical bypass activates despite reassuring workload context.
No acute symptom, rapid load increase
No symptom flag is entered, but workload rose quickly and sleep fell.
What the result clarifies: The page routes to planning review without claiming injury.

Scope and limitations
This screen is not diagnosis, emergency triage, medical clearance, or injury prediction. Chest pain, fainting, severe breathlessness, new neurological symptoms, severe trauma, or rapidly worsening illness require immediate professional assessment. Stop training when acute symptoms or fever are present.
Training Recovery Risk Screening Calculator | Symptom and Load Triage FAQ
Can the screen clear me to train?
No. It only organizes entered evidence and cannot provide medical or return-to-sport clearance.
Why is workload change not part of the urgent gate?
A percentage change is planning context, not an acute medical symptom.
Does zero flags prove low risk?
No. The calculator sees only the information entered and cannot examine the athlete.
What if symptoms are worsening?
Stop using the calculator and seek appropriate medical help.
