Anaerobic threshold
The physiological point during exercise at which the muscles start using more oxygen than the body can transport, and as a result, the work of the muscles starts producing more lactic acid than the body can process.

He's probably referring to the fact that most people think anaerobic is at a much lower level than what it really is. Eg, a hard 1 minute max effort isn't all anaerobic.

His power to weight ratio at his FTP is probably the highest here on this forum based on his results in cyclosportives (top rankings La Marmotte). But I was wondering of the 408 watts tested in Amerongen could be supported by data from his powertap because when I had to estimated his FTP (based on times of the podium riders at La Marmotte) it is 5.6-5.8 watts/kg.

his website also says he has a VO2 max of 92. Oege - you must be the fittest man on the planet.

So the best way to determine FT is to ride for one hour as fast as you can, and then look at the average power?

No, Ric was referring to the fact that the "anaerobic" threshold occurs at a exercise intensity at which exercising skeletal muscle is still fully aerobic.

Yes, when you can get a whole hour at the same pace. But you can also look at normalized power. NP is in a timetrial almost the same as AP but when it's difficult to hold a certain pace due to small villages, other traffic e.d. you see that normalized power is higher. You can use that value also.

Yesterday 367W, 76kg ~4,83W/kg Hunter/Coggan test protocol. In november I'll start structured training again and hopefully I get my weight down to 73kg and power up to 400W by may 2008.
