IDK… the poarity ratio for the hard mixed GC specialist ride was 91:9. that means you would define it as “mostly endurance” type of ride? I’m referring to this other thread…
91:9 means it was 91 % xss in below-TP exercise and 9% above TP?
How do I correlate a “pure”/“mixed”/“polar” specificity with its polarity ratio? i don’t understand how to calculate that… if i do a road sprinter focus… the polarity ratio could be anywhere between 0:100, and 99:1? and do i also need to know the workout total duration in order to get some idea of how to guess what the focus duration is based on the polarity ratio and specificity?
there’s three words here in the XERT language… “specificity” “polarity ratio” and “focus duration”. How do they inter-relate?
i’m looking at my A races… and i’m realizing i should maybe not do too many road sprinter workouts… the focus durations for those was 6-10 minutes…
besides… i never see my athlete focus duration go anywhere near my target athlete type… Too much group riding and general training i guess… I might want to do well as a road sprinter, but my XPMC shows that my focus duration never goes anywhere beyond GC specialist… usually.
