Separate names with a comma.
Also, a smaller rider also should produce a lot less heat and also be better able to deal with it, which can be a big factor as well when it comes...
Well, that didn't go too good. my polar hates the roads down in NM so i didn't really get any useful data. TT was 264/310 for 59th. other then...
Ill be there- paying for my sins of working/eating too much and trying to get into shape extremely quickly. I did it last year coming from sea...
I don't agree with that at all, the difference can range anywhere from minimal (USUALLY my rides are changed by less then 1%) to 25% depending on...
Exactly- Descending for 20 min has nothing to do with either stress or performance.
Good approach to snip out BS sections- but how many people do you think don't do that.
What happens if you stagnate during your 5 month L4 by only doing 2x20s? Also what happens to your FTP that you spent time building when you do 6...
TSS is training stress score- and descending for 20 min isn't training. Seriously if your going to consider "zero power descending" as stressful...
If your training for long events then the whole issue no matter how you ride is the flatness of your power/duration curve. I think that doing the...
Also i think that using TSS (just like in using time), Atfer you get your core workout in you might feel obligated to "use up" your TSS goal by...
Why use TSS for planning a single ride when it's one level away from what your trying to accomplish. TSS measure stress not adaptation. Time at a...
I would think that .82 IF and a much lower ap wouldn't get a true SST benefit if your only doing it for 2hrs. A VI of 1.08 isn't too bad but it...
My definition of what I consider to be a good SST ride is about 85%-90% average power for about 1.5-2.5hr. I try to do them on steady roads so NP...
It's hard to tell if that spreadsheet was accurate for you because of the number data points. Im assuming you picked them off of your PD curve,...
oh and it should be well above 1.06FTP. I tend to swing around 1.33
There are ways to estimate it ie get it "good enough" to be able to use it to train. In cycling it tends to be somwhere around the power you can...
I would think full recovery of around 5-7 min.
Is a 1-3-1 schedule really a block? It's pretty much a standard lemond schedule. I think that it;s only a block if you need more then one recovery...
You might have heard the magnitude vs depth from me because I tend to rant about it. I think that it's one of those things that is shade of gray...
The first one that you mentions refers to the average power while the list of IFs refers to the rides NP. Also, of course endurance could cover...
