I'm a cat 3 (upgraded at the end of last season) racer. I just joined the powermeter club this past weekend buying a used powertap from a teammate.
I was lactate tested back in November and haven't done a real test since then. I was planning to do a 30 min tt test this weekend, once i'm a little bit more rested.
I also have been using the trial version of TrainingPeaks. It seems pretty cool, but I haven't explored it enough to exploit its full functionality.
So any tips for a newbie to the power scene? Books to buy? Workouts to do (that i couldn't do before with a HRM or now can do better)? Ways to use TrainingPeaks to its full potential?
