5 min test - My AVG power is higher than NP???
I performed a 5 minute power test today and noticed that my average power for the 5:01 was 347W whereas the NP was 346W. Does this make sense?
Power-Tap #1: Duration: 5:01 Work: 104 kJ TSS: 14.8 (intensity factor 1.332) Norm Power: 346 VI: 1 Distance: 2.128 mi Min Max Avg Power: 292 421 347 watts Heart rate: 141 174 169 bpm Cadence: 81 106 95 rpm Speed: 19.8 28.6 25.5 mph Pace 2:06 3:02 2:21 min/mi Hub Torque: 71 117 90 lb-in Crank Torque: 250 404 308 lb-in |

Sorta. It's an artifact of the math for square-wave intervals between 5 - 5.5 minutes. |
