This should be an easy one. I only have four rides with a power meter and all within 7 days. I loaded them into training peaks to take a look. I've got only 2 of the 4 at or above tempo and the rest and medium effort rides. I'm not worried about what it calculates my fitness at but it has my fatigue through the roof and my form in the basement. I rode 40 medium miles on Saturday, 25 tempo miles on Monday and 30 threshold miles on Tuesday and took yesterday and today off. According to this, on my group ride tomorrow morning I should plan to be dropped before I leave the parking lot.
Is it likely safe to assume that this is because of such a small sample size? This is my standard training week without issue. According to my TSB form number I'm on the ragged edge of illness, overtraining and injury. I don't believe that to be the case.
Key:
Purple line is fatigue. Yellow line is form (TSB) blue line is fitness.
