Hi,
I have been training with HR zones and recently decided to take the plunge and buy a power meter (stages).
I completed a lab test two months ago and have been using the figures with my HR and thought it would be a simple job of switching to the power figures and carry on training; however, when I ride with my power zones, the figures jump about with so much volatility they are of no use at all.
On my first workout, the high and low power alarms were going off back to back continually for the first 20 mins before I had enough and had to switch them off.
Is there something wrong with the meter or head end or am I doing something wrong? I have tried looking at the 10s and 30s figures instead but even these seem to jump around a bit much.
I have naturally got quite a smooth pedaling action, which was confirmed at my lab test so I don't think this is the issue.
Any insight you could provide would be greatly appreciated.
