Let's See Your BREAKTHROUGHS! đŸ’„

As a general rule, my understanding is that you won’t have the most accurate breakthrough when you stop the effort artificially, either because of timer or the end of a road.

It was 3 days ago. Anyway l have just 3 months data in Xert and l didn’t do any maximal effort lately so l think my fitness signatures will be somewhat noisy for a while

Definitely a signature correction, more than a breakthrough, per sae. If you haven’t really pushed yourself in the way that the SMART - Harder to Breathe workout pushes you, then it’s possible for Xert to have underestimated your signature.

Passing road bikes on the climb with double down MTB tires was fun today

It’s been a long time since I had a gold breakthrough and when it came it was a big one.

Out with the cycling group for a quick ride. I hung on for 45 minutes and was then dropped and the way home was slower but still at a steady pace. The peaks are when I was getting to the front of the paceline and then staying there.

It was a real VO2 workout

One way to get faster is to ride with faster riders :slight_smile: Great ride @johnnybike and congrats on the Breakthrough!

Suddenly got a BT in a zwift race? Not expected that
Strange :-p. TP +11W after digging towards the finish.

Thanks Scott. At aged 67 I do find most are faster than me anyway :pensive:

This was cool in that I didn’t think my Sig was correct, and then my 10m power prediction was actually spot on. That only makes me more confident in the TP prediction, even if it feels high.

Thought I would try a short 150 metre climb - Nick O’Pendle, Lancashire, UK as a warm up before my main FulGaz ride.
Started steady and just kept on going.
45 seconds improvement for a PB and a silver BT

I was ruined for the main ride though.
