Yesterday's assignment was:
Warm Up: 10-15 minutes Easy,
then 3 x 1min intervals with 1 minute rest in between.
Main Set 2 x 12min intervals with 5 minutes rest in between @ FTP
(Basically 12 minutes fast, then 5 min recovery, then repeat)
My current FTP is around 210 watts. (That's the highest watts I can hold steady for 20+ minutes)
Here's the power graph from yesterday's ride.
I marked a red line at the 210 watts mark on the graph. That's the mark I was trying to hit and hold during each of the intervals. So the graph shows about 15 minutes of warm up, then the three short 1 minute intervals, followed by the two longer, 12 minute intervals.
I love training with power. It takes the guess work out of the equation, and I always know how hard I'm working regardless of road conditions, hills, or wind. 210 watts is always 210 watts no matter what the speedometer says.
