Re: Poll: What's your Functional Threshold power?
Update: It seems that I over-estimated my FTP with 0.95*CP20. I take 0.93*CP20 now.

Re: Poll: What's your Functional Threshold power?
Since I just did my first ftp test then I'll add my score (such as it is
 ).ftp at the moment is 288. Best results are 21:56 for a 10 mile TT and 57:59 for a 25. That got me 5th in the 10 and 30th in the 25. I got 8th in another 25 on a slow hilly course but mainly 'cos noone fast turned up! I am right at then end of 4 weeks of off season. I have slumped a lot since my peak in June/July as it has been a hard year (my first year of training/racing and only my second year on the bike). Hopefully I can post back with an improvement when I retest in 6 weeks time. |

Re: Poll: What's your Functional Threshold power?
FT at peak of 2006 race season was 335, 20k tt wattage at about 360 @ LTHR of about 165 bips.
Masters 35+ NJ State Time Trial Champion A few first place TT wins in M35 throughout year. A few road races won and top places in 4s, then cat3s, all from breaks or solos. right now, building back up steady smooth miles with some intensity every 10days or so, FT is dialed back to about 295 or so. typicall TT'rs. really strong cp180,120,60,30,12,5, good 1 minute but weak sprinter. my cp.8 is like 995 watts. not sure i popped 1K+ in any race all year. in sprinting, i'm a 5th grade school girl. weight = 168 more or less, 6feet even. though i'm down a few now and hoping to keep it in the mid 160s to low 160s. age=37 when did we all become older gentlemen!!!?? -steve |

Looks like I had to give a few spots back.  When I got my PT I found FTP was lower than what I had predicted it to be using the Kinetic Trainer, at first I thought it was just due to being out of shape. But now, I'm forced to admit I estimated a few watts high. |

Re: Poll: What's your Functional Threshold power?
Age 46, normalized power numbers for 31 minutes of ride time, starting 38 minutes into a 2hr mtb race...too lazy thus far to push myself to do some real testing numbers.
