I love the new format short clips on a specific subject! I still listen to the full podcasts, but they are too long to maintain full concentration, I listen to them while doing other stuff and I occasionally miss these important discussions!

@funkydisciple 5 лет назад

Totally agree with this. I think this should be the new way moving forward with the 10/15min clips dedicated to a specific topic. Podcasts are long and i echo what I’ve says about maintaining full concentration. :)

I can say that my ftp has improved with long intervals sessions and adding shorts bursts on my zone 2 days.

@Whitewater11 5 лет назад

My FTP Sucks but I've never directly trained it until now. Hoping to bring it up to respectable levels and curious to see how it translates into race results.

I must be an anerobic athlete. I doubled my FTP after Low Volume traditional base one and two

@delkim3691 5 лет назад

You could never achieve such increase if you have already been training for years. Such jump is only possible for novice at cycling.

@tomfield2292 5 лет назад

@@delkim3691 Actually, no. I have ridden since my 20's and raced on and off through those years, and consistently in my 40's and 50's. My FTP at my best during my race career has been 60 to 70 points lower than my most recent ramp test. It remains to be seen whether the workouts are doable. I'm currently in my 60's

@tomfield2292 5 лет назад

@@delkim3691 Actually No. I've been riding and intermittently racing since my 20's and consistently in my 40's and 50's. When I was actively racing my FTP was 60 to 70 watts less than the recent ramp test. I was off the bike for about 6 years due to work I'm in my 60's

@SteveT__001 5 лет назад

@@tomfield2292 Maybe you have just got better at FTP tests.

@petka_ 5 лет назад

So what was your FTP before and now? Going from 200watt to 400watt in 60's would be surprising. Racing with one significantly below 200watt is also surprising.

@skmanny2525 5 лет назад

Been watching you guys for a year or two and very helpful podcast !

@xGshikamaru 5 лет назад

Wow this is so informative, I especially liked the bit about improving anaerobic power to improve FTP because that's something that wouldn't make sense to me but now I understand why it works. One thing I still can't get is how you become more efficient at recycling lactic acid. It takes a lot of aerobic power to do that but VO2Max isn't changing much so you are bound to hit a ceiling at some point where performance is tied to that, aren't you? When I'm riding quite hard with other people I'm often amazed at how they can blow up without showing signs that they would while I'm breathing super hard and yet I can still hang on.

@coachashley29 5 лет назад

@ImGlossy63 3 года назад

Hey guys love all the info you share. With this particular podcast does age come into play. At 58 will I get benefits at the same rate or slower then say a 25-35 year old athlete assuming we do the same work load?

@TrainerRoad 3 года назад

Hey, Chris! Great question. I think the important takeaway here is that everyone's rate of progression is nonlinear and totally different! It will depend so much upon your prior experience in training, genetic factors, and even off the bike stressors. Work on maximizing things that will help optimize your progress such as nutrition and rest to see the most benefit possible! :)

@Guessmynameification 2 года назад

you can use an HR monitor, it's not ideal but it's what I've been doing. Coupled with RPE you can develop a good intuition of where your thresholds are. If you're not a full time athlete, biggest gains come from how you mix long slow rides and interval work, which involve zones which are pretty easy to estimate with HR and RPE. Downside is you'll never know/see what your FTP is and how it increases.

@skmanny2525 5 лет назад

I used to train every day for the past 2years, recently suffer a foot injury and bike got stolen been off the bike for six months. My FTP was 435 just worried how long will it take to reach that once again :( Been doing strength training at least.

@delkim3691 5 лет назад

435 is huge FTP! If you were in TOP form then it is also possible you will never reach such high FTP again. When I ride one month in Z1 after race season in November, it takes 3 months to get back to same numbers.

@skmanny2525 5 лет назад

Don't tell me that ! Also work at Jimmy John's doing deliveries on my road bike from 10:30 am till 5pm Monday though Friday just hope that's enough to keep some of my fitness.

@karllindberg4830 4 года назад

should you train at your FTP or higher?

@TrainerRoad 4 года назад

That depends on a lot of factors such as your race's demands, your focus for the season, and your current phase of training. In our training plans, we carefully plan out what types of workouts to do, and when, which helps you reach your fitness goals :) When going higher than FTP, it has to be in shorter intervals because your body can only sustain that effort for a limited time. So maybe you spend 3 minutes at 120% FTP followed by 3 minutes at 50% FTP to recover. Then repeat. This would be considered a VO2 Max workout.
