So while putting workout plan for myself together how should I choose the %ftp I wanna use? For example for an endurance ride, where the area I should mess around is 55-75%, how should I know which % to use? Lower % in the beginning of the plan, higher later or else?

Last time a made a mistake with ERG and Level mode....ramp test. In the systm app.... That's 💯😁😁💯

[@SmartBikeTrainers]

Yeah, there is some back and forth between level and erg mode with Systm and you will miss it if you don’t pay attention. You just have to re-take the test :)

Thank you sir

[@gerrysecure5874]

The ramp test is much shorter, much easier and much more wrong 😂. If u want to know use this: 5min all out -> Pavg(5) 10min rest 20min all out -> Pavg(20) (Pavg(20)*20 - Pavg(5) * 5) / 15 It's called Monod Scherrer Critical Power. This gives a really good estimate of what you really can do for a full hour. Tried and verfied in races. It takes into account your individual fatigue factor.

This was a very clear and detailed video! Do you have or know how to make basic training schemes on TrainingPeaks (or something else) that’s easy to sync to a Wahoo Roam?

[@SmartBikeTrainers]

TrainingPeaks offers a lot of plans which you can purchase and appear in your TP account and syncs to your Roam. Also, TrainerRoads plans sync to Wahoo Roam.

[@bnfrl2010]

[@NOne72]

Which is better zwift or fulgaz??

[@SmartBikeTrainers]

If you like real video based rides, then you will find FulGaz to be the better app. On the other hand, Zwift offers a lot more in terms of training and variety of rides as well as running.

[@NOne72]

@@SmartBikeTrainers i have been running zwift for some time now but wanted to try something new what about wahoo or rouvey
