Hi Data Nerds!

I just wanted to Train as structured as u do - so i joined xert an i am about to Setup everything nicely. That Said, i am concerened, about some topics - maybe someone can help me:

  • i trained much more in summer as in the cold season - my fitness declined every Winter. As a premium member i feeded xert with all
    My past activities from Strava. After the calculation my last breakthrough was 2 years !? This was an ftp Test 2022 - then my fitness declined again through Winter, But got better summer 2023 und summer 23 → shouldnt he find some breakthroughts in the summers as i got. bette an better? Was it a good thing to load the data back to 2021?

  • My LTP is suggested as 196, my TP 240. LTP
    Seems far to high as i cant maintain 196 that long. What do i think.

Just wanted to make sure, that my basic Numbers a right, so i can Train to my best!

Thanks!

Hey Thomas,

Welcome to Xert! We can help review your data here if you’d like! Would you mind sharing your XPMC chart (set to ‘Forever’) so we can review it together? And maybe also share the MPA chart from your last Breakthrough activity? It would be good to make sure there aren’t any power meter errors that are skewing things.

hi! thist would be really nice!

i hope i did it the right way! My strava account goes back to 2016, but xert only allowed me to upload the activities since 2021…

This ist what de xpmc chart looks like:

Give it another try! :slight_smile: It seems Xert needed a little adjustment to get the most accurate TP estimate from your sprint efforts during that Full-Frontal test. I simply lowered your TP by 10W and allowed Xert to recalculate everything since then. You should now see several breakthroughs detected, and your fitness should be tracking nicely with your Training Load over time:

Good work.
Can you adjust my chart to add another 50 watts as well.
I didn’t realise Xert offered that service :grinning:

Manually increasing it is easy - now doing the workouts or achieving your daily XSS targets on the other hand might be a bit harder! :wink:
