Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Not much tbh Gobi, a 25 mile bike ride once a week, and maybe a run 3-5 miles, and some dog walks.

i'd like to be jogging more but, you know...

I didn't mean it was an easy ride rather an easy session/interval.

So i've guessed the % without a calculator I Think FTP is around 210 but not higher than 220. The higher pace was 205W and 170 was lower.

Workout – Aerobic 12s– 63 minutes (TSS 55)

The description is: Aerobic endurance workouts improve efficiency at lower intensity levels. We’ll expand your aerobic capacity during this session.

4 or 5 on RPE - I wasn't gurning, HR low. It said I should be able to sing/chat comfortably during the 170W efforts which are like spinning through the valleys of Etape du Tour (lol).

Yeah. I suppose the thing with the turbo is it's hard to just spin (or I think it is) because it's so mind numbing.

I only ever do intervals on it because I need to break up the monotony. But I really really hate the turbo!

I assumed he meant easy as in "not difficult to organise" as opposed to easy = no effort.

I’m rarely correct.

Cold well be that Angus

I have tired legs from this mornings race. Ran 5 miles and it was a tired effort for sure but I am happy with the continual load

I meant for a session/interval it wasn't a hard workout. I felt comfortable at 170W for a couple of minutes. I did 7hrs Fri to Sun at around ave 160W so a 3:30 interval of 170W with 30 secs of 205W was fine.

Not sure if I've unlocked activities but fetcheveryone.com/t-17318826 ave HR 118. I'm new to cycle training but that seems low. Peaked at 133 towards end of each set. Ave 125 for 3hr 25min on Sunday.https://www.fetcheveryone.com/t-17312898

Therefore it is a session to develop the engine ergo not easy but steady at best. Power numbers are personal but it is the % effort that defines Easy/Steady etc.

Power is absolute so although you HR is low the impact on the legs is build
