How do I reduce my LTP as it feels too high

Just adding some extra spice into this thread…

LTP shouldn’t necessarily feel “Easy”. From the data that users have shared with me, I suspect LTP is right around or just above LT1, but it wasn’t created to be LT1, if that makes sense. LTP is a mathematical artifact of the relationship between TP and HIE, and just happens that it falls near the first lactate threshold. What LTP truly is in our system is what we would expect your TP to decay down to after a long long ride. I.e. riding at LTP after a 6 hour ride might feel similar to riding right around TP when you’re fresh.
