This is also why there is a range of 95-105% for FTP training. You don't always have to be on the high end.


This is one of the key things that has finally sunk in over the last couple of years. I think I've finally settled on holding back to the lower-end instead of trying to stretch the higher-end. Holding back 5w this week...and knocking out the workout is better than pushing +5w and cutting the last rep by 5 minutes (or whatever). If its too easy (as judged by follow-on work the rest of the week)...you can always creep up a little next week. But, crushing efforts always seem to have bad downstream effects that are worse than whatever upside there might be to the "extra 10w".

I think you meant ">> #".
